he called a GREAT game tonight.  he got held back ALOT on flags but still called a great game.

we also saw that PJ will never see the field again in meaningful minutes unless Grothe is hurt.

PJ hasnt learned anything.  he still looked like a scared little kid on his few plays.

I still question some of his play calling, but I have never been "on his back" ...

A good QB is what he's needed all along.

Go BULLS !!!

P.S. Defense played great tonight. The team is improving. I think we can take NC on the road, but only with Grothe legs.

1 good game of play calling against an obviously overmatched oppenant doesnt make up for his numerous past mistakes.  Im not "on his back" but he had done very little to make me believe in him as an o cooridnator.

I think the play calling tonight was great. In the past we used to sit there  and call out the plays..so predictable. Tonight, offense and grothe and even the running game kept us all off balance, not to mention the huskies' defense. congrats to everyone. great game. great win.

well you witnessed HOW BAD This same offense can look with PJ in the game.  rob probably has to cut his playbook in half.

remember....rod was OC with Blackwell and i dont think too many people were complaining then.

i am just SOOO happy that Grothe game back.  it was a very scary moment when he went down in such pain as it appeared he did at the time.  i was in the student section and there was a serious sigh of terror.

Rod isnt going to produce a heisman but he is far from the goat of this team.

he made some very good play calls...the only thing i wish he would do away with is that stupid QB draw option.  it probably averages about 2 yards per play.

i think that once Ponton comes back we will really see things turn around.  Good think Ricky gets to come back against NC who has a terrible run defense.  i expect atleast 85 yards from him.  i hope CJL lets him be the feature back.  6 games is enough, dont let the ego get in the way...

Amazing how good the offense can look when you have a back getting yards on the ground...

    We've talked about getting back to being the toughest, most violent people out there. Let's be the best version of ourselves and really get back to the culture of how we (USF) used to step across the line and play anybody. Let's hold on to the culture of when they were tough … and they (opponents) knew it was going to be long damn day for themselves.
