Let's credit the Pac-12 refs for picking up that flag

The hit was with the shoulder pad, so they actually corrected the call on the field without messing up. Amazing.

Yeah I was worried they were going to let it stand

Btw how about that graphic showing FG when cam ran it in for a TD. So much for the broadcast credibility

Good start on offense so far

Apart from a safety bust on the deep ball, a much more promising start today. Hopefully the offense doesn’t disappear after this. Also knocking on all the wood around me for KJ’s and the OL’s health to finish the game

Welp the defense is in prime 2019 form

Tempo with an accurate QB and a feisty RB is going to be hard to stop. This will have to be a shootout for the offense as the D isn’t inspiring any confidence

OMFG don’t all down

Why can’t our players stay on their feet? Three stumbles ending good plays in first qtr.

Tremayne for 6

Sick 1-hander to haul that in. KJ is so far. His moxy will also rub on the team

14-10 early in the 2nd

Cardinal are battling, and that’s enough for me. Go Stanford!

Better response by the D

Toohill is the last of the rose bowl remnants, beats the tackle for a sack

Wow, where has this team been all year?

Looking good.

Competent QB play and bad defense

It’s hard not to overreact but every game is a datapoint and sometimes matchups are huge advantage vs disadvantage

Running it down their throats

Zona has a light front and our OL and TEs (even WRs) mauling and mashing them up front

Oops no inside contain and tate walks in

ILBs and safeties just non existent for this team. Tate burns it right down the middle

Talk about an open gate on that play

With a mobile QB it helps not to give him a completely open field for a TD.

KJ to fehoko for 6

Deep shot to fehoko connected for a nice TD. Austin Jones with a nice pass block pickup after setting up that 2nd and short. He is going to ball in this offense

Another inside linebacker down <img src="//fonts.voxmedia.com/emoji/unicode/1f62b.png" alt=":tired_face:" class="emoji">

What did we ever do to anger the injury gods?

Atleast a score before half but chance went begging

Fehoko dropped a would-be TD (with mild help by the zona defender) and then KJ locked onto parkinson on the 3rd down. Atleast Sanborn looks unfazed as we go up by a TD

Way more entertaining irrespective of the score

It helps that we are leading this game but whatever the end result, I am really happy that we are still fighting with an offense that has a pulse. Makes it so much more watchable

PS: what’s up with the turf monster

The team at least looks alive

Even though the defense hasn’t done much…

Hide those stat lines away

Coz it ain’t pretty : 13-15 (tate+gunnell) for 165 yards plus that gaping 64 yard TD run. Outmatched defensively

It would help if they'd make the occasional tackle on the first hit

Penalty puts them behind the chains

KJ can’t tuck it and run after catching it off deflection. Play it safe without turnover coz this one might come down to a possession steal

Stanford can't stop scoring

Because the defense isn’t stopping Arizona at all.

How do we not have a single spy in the middle?

That JJ Taylor is a good nifty back but we are letting the whole pacific ocean part through. Can’t stop the run, the pass nor the scramble. Just let them score and move on to offense

Turning in for a nap, good luck card

Hopefully we pull this one out and have our slim bowl hopes still afloat
