Notes from the Utah State "game"

• The Yellow Helmets look worse than ever.
• Roper looked comfortable running, and he seems to have built up on the quickness and agility. Very impressive making reads.
• Mancrush on Chris Harper.
• Chris Harper's throws were on minimal West Coast plays. His touchdown pass was perfectly placed, but it looked more like a rollout with a 7 yard shovel pass. It was a wobbly, weak pitch that was throw as accurately as possible into the hands of (I think) Rory Cavaille. A nice looking play with an option to take it in on the ground, but a good job in keeping his head up and looking for receivers. 
• Jay Masoli needs to work on a few things. He needs to be more consistent with throws. They can be a perfect laser on one, then an ugly pass that trails his man by 3 yards. He throws flat footed a lot. I think it's the tempo change... he doesn't know yet that receivers are so fast.
• Terence Scott is a huge target. He's getting the most passes this year, I love it. The jazz man coming through for us a lot. His dropped pass in the endzone on that perfect Roper ball was his only mistake all year.
• Ed! Getting Ed Dickson involved for the first time yesterday was awesome. I wanted him so bad to get that TD, but after review he was stopped at the 1 foot line. He wanted it too.
• Roper's pick was bad, but that was his only mistake all day. The second he threw it, I saw it going right to the DB. I think he did too. He talked to Chip and came back and did everything right from then on.
• LeGarrette Blount is like a fucking 18 wheeler. 
• Remene Alston got lots of touches, and he was making the most of it, a few flashes of excellent speed and quickness. Woooo.
• Andre Crenshaw needs to improve if he wants to be a premier back in time.
• Matt Evensen had 3 consecutive kickoffs that had the distance to go through the uprights, one of which actually did. He's got a powerful Groza-worthy leg that will not return to the UW game form.
• Where the hell are J-Will and Pflu? J-Will got two balls thrown to him at the very beginning, that he took for good yardage after catch. That was good, but we didn't see much of him the rest of the game. Same with the UW game. Pflugrad hasn't been playing at all, he must be the #4 receiver because I've seen a lot more 3-WR sets this year than last year.
• Pflugrad dropped a Chris Harper pass. At first I was surprised, then I wanted to cut his nuts off.
• I can't stand opposing mobile QBs. When will Alliotti start having MIKEs spy? Time after time we get burnt by QB draws and scrambles.
• Masoli needs to take advantage of his legs. He runs too east-west, and far too little. Chip should try to get him to have just as much confidence in his legs as his arm.
• If Brody Wilkins is on the roster, yesterday would've been the day to see him out there. Is he redshirting?
• Malachi Lewis needs more touches. This kid has sticky hands and a huge body to truck.
• The O-line was great as expected.
• The D-line, I thought, could've gotten in the backfield more, but I wasn't disappointed either.
• Our LBs didn't have much action that I saw.
• Our secondary is the best in the west.
• Josh Syria was probably very bored today.
• How does Chip do it?

Does anyone have any questions about the game? I was there so I could give you a photographic transmission of almost any play.
