17-3 seemed like a low score. Did anyone watch the game that can tell us how Weber looked and how the game went? I see the Weber qb rushed 11 times for 54 yds and a two point conv, so he must be healthy. I Also read that the WSU defense shut down the poly rushing attack.
Anything we can take away from this game ??
Weber State had 3 early turnovers, two fumbles lost and a bad decision throw for pick. Weber also missed their first Field goal of the year going 1-2 in the game. Weber also went for 2 on both touchdowns and only got one. On two of the turnovers Weber was driving. Despite winning by only 14, Weber probably should have won by around 31-3, turnovers hurt, and once Weber got up two scores they played a lot more conservative offensively. Weber's front 7 owned Cal Poly' line and the Mustangs had a hard time getting anything going. Cal Poly started offensive possessions inside Weber territory 6 times and only came away with 3 points.
I do have to give Poly's D some credit, they played tough and did hold SUU to only 20 in Cedar City in their previous game.
