Guess Walker could beat USC as long as he had their playbook, and hasn't shown he can beat other good Pac 10 teams. From 10-2 the year before Walker, to 7-6 Walker's first year, to 6-7 this year...and two bowl losses...to FSU (a bad team) and BYU (not even a BCS team). This is not a Div 1 effort...the defense with senior veterans is capable of barely getting UCLA to bowl eligibility. Who thinks Walker is a genius now?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6018856070986689764.post-39560419748346480322007-05-18T15:58:00.000-07:002007-05-18T15:58:00.000-07:00I enjoyed reading this analysis and your blog...ke...I enjoyed reading this analysis and your blog...keep up the good work! -RBFAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6018856070986689764.post-41201895268699727262007-05-17T15:54:00.000-07:002007-05-17T15:54:00.000-07:00The Emerald Bowl still is a bit of a question mark...The Emerald Bowl still is a bit of a question mark. <BR/><BR/>What will be *really* interesting is how the defense responds to carrying the load for the team, which it looks like it's going to have to do.<BR/><BR/>In the FSU game, the defense appeared to get tired, annoyed, and frankly flustered as the offense put them in poor position time and again. That's going to likely happen a lot this year - hopefully the age of the defense gives them some greater poise.Jasonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17067448620734618224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6018856070986689764.post-84804231610931451652007-05-17T14:33:00.000-07:002007-05-17T14:33:00.000-07:00I sure hope so jeryang.

The <A HREF="http://bruinroar.blogspot.com/search/label/spring%20practice" REL="nofollow">Spring Practice </A> sure didn't give me much confidence that the offense will be anywhere near as strong as the defense. We do return a lot of starters and, with a new offensive coordinator, maybe they'll put up some better numbers this season.CPBruinFanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06374584076069392563noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6018856070986689764.post-49367209245200709172007-05-17T11:56:00.000-07:002007-05-17T11:56:00.000-07:00I meant to write: Nice job, now will the offense c...I meant to write: Nice job, now will the offense catch up?Jeremyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05444716504661961737noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6018856070986689764.post-89000948389114974132007-05-17T10:23:00.000-07:002007-05-17T10:23:00.000-07:00Good analysisGood analysisAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
