Good lesson for Ferguson there, you’re a big TE, stumble backwards for that first down, don’t try to make moves and go backwards.

Watching now after doing halloween prep, wonder why not just take the 3 with a relatively hot kicker instead of failing and turning over on downs? Has Oregon been able to push?

Call every other holding on CA and they would never advance.

Well, if they knew they were going to fail, I suspect they would have kicked it. Can’t blame the staff for being aggressive when it fails and laud them when it’s successful. It was the right call, sometimes the other team makes a stop. There was going to be some regression at some point, as I believe the team came into the game 12/13 on 4th down attempts.

I’ll never blame the coaches for going for it on 4th and 1. Unfortunately an OLineman, I think Connorly or Harper, whiffed and Cal made a good defensive play.

Getting backups reps is more important than win margin for this programs long term success.

Long term yes, short term no. Especially if the Ducks remain in the playoff conversation, they need separation from weak teams to help their resume.

No voter who saw week one cares what the final margin of a game against Cal is as long as it’s a win. I don’t get the handful of playoff people on here

I’ll add, years of Cristobal mismanagement of the roster and not getting leads to develop players is a huge reason this team isn’t realistically in playoff contention
