Portland State vs Oregon (Sept. 2, Sat 12 PM Pac12Net)

Zero sacks. hmmm

I saw that stat, but wasn’t sure what to do with it. I didn’t feel like the QB had much time. Oregon put some pressure on the QB a couple times, but he was quick to throw it/throw it away.

We did have several nice tackles in the backfield.

Only 20 pass attempts, and most of those were quick hitters. They didn’t seem to have trouble getting pressure the few times there was a longer pass play. I wouldn’t make much of that. Not saying it’s considerably improved, but really nothing to take away one way or another from this game.

Zero sacks and 50 yards passing. What a weird stat.

And there were multiple times where pressure ruined the play but didn’t result in a sack, and crucial plays too. PSU just has an athletic starting QB who also throws really quickly and they ran a lot of screens. The pass rush could’ve been better but I’m not too worried about the defense.

That second drive was awful for the defense though, they were just sleepwalking out there and you could tell being at the game they weren’t motivated. Lanning must’ve chewed them out cause they were a different defense after that.

One thing I noticed was how quickly Lanning was to sub someone on defense that missed an assignment, even if they play wasn’t positive for PSU. Lanning clearly is passionate about drastically improving the defense.

Love the helmets, but I think the Oakley-esque O has aged. It was a very modern & sleek design when we made the switch, but it looks flat and out of place on our current unis. I’d love to see an update to the O that better blends into the current helmet/jersey design.

The “Oakley”? It’s Hayward and Autzen combined to make our O. The only thing similar to Oakley, is it’s and O.

I had to work. Doesn't look like I missed anything.

WAIT! Was anyone injured?

I didn't notice any major injuries happen during the game itself, but several key players didn't participate in the game.

Yes, it;s not that they needed sacks anyway.

7/11 drives saw the Defense force a 3 and out and the Vikings didn't do anything outside of the 2nd drive of the game.

Let's not react like this was somehow a bad defensive performance today.

Looked like Ty Thompson injured his hand.

[Duck07]

I read he just got a cut/blood on it and it was nothing serious.

PSU is picked to finish 9th in the Big Sky conference. There was a lot of poor tackling on their part. And our RBs were too quick and overpowered them when needed. I think I was most impressed with the OL with all the changes from last year. It will only get better. I didn't see the 4th qtr, but I was also impressed with Ty with what I did see. Be nice to have a solid backup.

Super impressed by our DL who played the end of the game. All just giants, and PSU couldn’t move them at all. I think the last 3-4 drives we had 10 Fr on the D. And they gave PSU nothing.

Also on D we were without 3-4 starters today, so when those guys return the D should look different
