Folks are going to focus on Campbells late stretch culimating in the Morgan pass...

and they should because that was a deplorable sequence and most know I don't do the play calling thing because theres so much nuance we don't know.

But you don't need all the nuance to know that taking the ball out of Warren's hands who was actually on fire creating two tds out of near nothing to put it in semaj's hands for an all or nothing trick play was brutal.

BUT, what I find even worse and makes me wonder what he did learn about how we won for three years, is his first three first down play calls. Perimeter based plays that lost a total of 7 yards.

On the first series on 2nd down we punch them square in the face and Edwards went for 8, but we were already behind the sticks.

Then we got back to the middle on second down after the fumble recovery and Don gets 15.

Unreal.

So we know we need to possess, we know Mullings and Edwards are a strength, its November in the Big Ten with Oregon travelling cross country and Campbell is going grab bag with his offensive calls. No chance to set a tone that puts them on their heels and makes them question if they are in for a bigger fight than they thought.

I was and remain disgusted with it.

Uh, not normally this guy, but there should be a LONG look at that first TD....

...and everything that went into that being botched.

First of all CBS. There is FOREVER between when the play ends and when the extra point is kicked. Oregons play clock runs down to nothing. They show two replays that don't show the drop but don't show the one that does.

CBS is showing no replays while waiting for official confirmation, but the second the kick goes through they show the angle that shows the drop.

Now when the replay is shown you see a ref staring RIGHT AT the player - almost impossible to conceive him missing it.

Then the automatic review.

We weren't winning the game but this situation is so bad, I can guarantee you Moore is throwing a fit and he should be - the negligence (or worse) is off the charts.

By the way you adjust their points to 34 and we give up 2 more points and 20 less yards than OSU did, with a band aid secondary - the Wink angst is misplaced as it pertains to the last few weeks IMO.
