BN Gameday: Stanford Second Half Thread
Well it could have been lot worse. Bruins are down 6-14 but end the half on a positive note. They throttle a Stanford offense what was manhandling them all afternoon long in Cardinal's last drive and then put on a nice two minute drill to close with 3 (although would have liked them to take a shot in the end zone).
For all the heat he has taken over the years, Craft is playing solid. He has completed 9 for 13 passes for 98 yards, completing passes to 8 different receivers. The problem with our team during first half was our focus. We got killed by stupid penalties on both sides of the ball. Stanford is barreling around with Gerhart and efficient play of Andrew Luck. It seems as if Bullough is coaching a tentative game and waiting to make adjustments. Well time is now.
Anyway, despite Stanford dominating the clock they are only up by 8. Updated box score here.
If we settle down, focus and play smart football, we will have a shot. Let's fire away.
GO BRUINS.

Interesting that Viney has not seen any time. I know he’s small, but Price has more than a few completions to his side of the field….
You don't pull a corner because his guy caught a few balls
We are getting run over up front
by UCLABruins4Ever on Oct 3, 2009 2:14 PM PDT up reply actions
Ok. Then when DO you pull a corner?
We are also giving up a lot on the outside run….
He was obviously covering his guy well enough at the end of the half
Because it gave our DL time to get to Luck

Just saw the highlights
and the first one was Gerhart running right by Price as he appeared to give a half-hearted attempt to go for the tackle..
Oh, you're right then, Pull him!
lol, because NOBODY has missed a tackle on Gerhart today
Geez, tough room

Price's man caught one ball deep
and there was pretty good coverage on it. The other catches were short and in front of him, which is fine because the game plan is clearly to give that space on that side of the field because Owusu is on the other and we’re rolling coverage that way. Price is doing just fine.

Stanford has had the ball almost 20 minutes.
Almost twice as much as UCLA. Gotta change that starting NOW!
Response to the question about why people think the hurry up offense is effective outside of the last 2 minutes of the half
The no huddle can be very effective if executed right. If the offense can get to the line fast enough and get set it gives the defense zero time to adjust. This is especially adventageous when your plays are scripted.

Good point.
Nestor, might I humbly request that you include a link to the new thread in your post whenever you notify us that there’s a new game thread? =)
How to
1.Let the Defense play itself into this game, we’ve always played better in the latter half of games lately, and Price and Co. are starting to get to Luck, best way to stop a passer is to not let him pass.
2. Put Craft in the shotgun on obvious passing downs
3. Let Franklin go back at it, Coleman doesn’t have his head in the game right now.
There's no one in the world that wants to beat UCLA more than _______.
I haven't noticed, but were we blitzing

I'm buying that to an extent
Yeah Stanford is playing an excellent game but in no way should it be a two score game. There have been plenty of mistakes on the UCLA side what with penalties and some very poor play early on by receivers. Also A few times Gerhart should have been tackled for a loss and he breaks for about 10 yards. All in all it’s been pretty sloppy from the get go.
by DannyJay01 on Oct 3, 2009 2:41 PM PDT via mobile up reply actions
If you watched Stanford
Gerhart makes guys miss and turns negative yards to positive yards regularly. We’ve also been worse committing penalties in past games and I didn’t hear not showing up to play then.

i would give Craft one more series if not at that point we have nothing
to lose by putting Brehaut in there… by that point we’re down by over two TDs( not jinxing here, but that could be the case)… Craft while not making major mistakes isn’t going to win this single-handedly.. we don’t know if Brehaut can or has the potential to do SOMETHING

by wsmontano1994 on Oct 3, 2009 2:47 PM PDT up reply actions
You want a kid to come in
and play from behind, without a running game, against a good pass rush and defense playing with confidence. There’s a reason Craft got the start and he hasn’t played poorly. Brehait was actually given a good opportunity to win the job when Prince went down, but he struggled with the playbook and Craft passed him up. Craft outplayed him for the job and hasn’t been playing poorly. Investing time in him is investing it at the correct time with the correct environment. This is neither and even the best of 18 year olds kids can have their confidence hurt.

Rushing is 17 att for 59 yards, 3.5 ypc
We gotta do a better job rushing.
In part (only in part) because they contolled the game w/ the run
Time of possession …. with an average to poor offense, you need to give them more than 4-5 possessions.
Agreed that Craft not the problem

Seriously. One quarter

If Brehaut is the real deal
the only way we’ll know it is if we let him play this quarter… 24-6 is about the same as 41-6… a loss is a loss… at least we’ll know what he can do — IF he’s going to prove to be solid — under some degree pressure

However, the problem right now is we need a QB who can stretch the field. He can’t physically.

Craft usually misfires on long balls. I have seen enough to make that judgment.

Craft hasn’t done anything bad.
Craft hasn’t done anything spectacular.
Right now, we need spectacular, 3tds in 15 minutes.
We know craft can’t do spectacular, he can’t hit anything past 20 yards to open things up.
I don’t blame craft for our position, but I’m not sure he can pull it out in 15 minutes.

This series, they finally let him fling it around, b/c at this point, what’s there to lose.

another bomb
from Craft, lol. first down though, let’s go!
Get creative
The UCLA offense has been pretty easy to cover today. Run, run, pass, kick. We do need to get more creative. I can feel the holding back of offense. Put in Brehaut and let’s try to get things going. It is getting too late in the game to stick to: run,run,pass,kick.
We have a chance to win and Craft is taking care of the ball
You do NOT switch QB’s now

you know what has really been killing us?
settling for field goals, as we always have. It was the right call in that decision, but serious the first was just blah.
OK DEF - it's on you one more time.....
get a stop and take our chances!

Yep, loved Reggie Carter's quote in the papers...
…“I’m going to be waiting for Gerhart on the other side of the line”…too bad he didn’t back it up
…plus he and Sheldon Price taunted Gerhart after decent plays, but down by 2/3 scores, pretty unclassy IMO.

you know what - yes it's a loss
But we’re 3-1
And at least they fought back and didn’t give up.
Props to stanford though, what are they 4-1 now?
Harbaugh was VERY relieved there
he deserved it
We're just horribly
hampered when we have no legit threat to throw for more then 10 yards without a huge turnover risk.
let's hope Prince is ready soon
not to say Craft did poorly but we won’t go far without a vertical offense

Thank You, but....
….we won’t go far with Prince if we never run a play more than 10-15 yards past the LOS.
Hell, even Stanford did that three or four times today, with two big completions.

well, we've been winning ugly
now we found a way to lose ugly. Too many Field Goals!

It could have been much much worse
And I hope Bruinsnation gets a grip… defense, run defense, no run game, lots of reasons we lost this. Craft was 22-34, over 200 yrds, no picks. He didn’t win it, but he sure as hell didn’t lose it.

whata shitty way to end the game
he has to feel that pressure and get that throw off…. oh well – shouldn’t have even been in the gam,e at the end – too many mistakes – ucla not there yet – Could have won but props to stanford…
Absolutely amazing how directly penalties
lost that game for us.
Where is he gonna throw it?
Craft isn’t great but that’s not on him.
4th and 10, he needs at least a few seconds

Tough loss
But kudos to the Bruins for not folding when it was 21-3. They fought hard, just too many mistakes throughout the game.
by McNown to Farmer on Oct 3, 2009 3:42 PM PDT reply actions
Very Simple, Look at the Box
They got TD’s, we call plays to get us in FG range.
If we aren’t going to call offensive plays to win with Craft, we have to play Brehaut.
I’m not in favor of playing Brehaut necessarily, but that’s the reality
Who says we aren't calling plays to get in the endzone?
Believe it or not, despite the fact that our O-line is improved, they still can’t pass block very well. At least not long enough to let guys get open 30 yards downfield.
Stop pretending like Craft can’t throw it far enough.
