Good:
- lost by 17 as opposed to the 22 spread (guess that’s a positive)
- Nuce blowing up that play early and causing a fumble
- turning a TO into points early
- Ah Yat played okay….not great but not bad….had 231 yards passing and was 19/32 with 2 TDs….that pass to Racanelli was a dime
- Racanelli is one of the most improved players through the year. Glad he will be back. He had 3 grabs for 66 and a great TD
- Keenlan White had a nice game with 5 grabs for 68 yards and a TD
- a nice catch from freshman Lebridges and a nice sweep as well. You can see he has wheels and talent
- Riley Wilson played 120% as always and flew around
- Hayden Harris with a nice sack
- Jaxon Lee with some strong one on one tackles for a loss or no gain

Bad:
- the O Line got manhandled on levels I didn’t know were possible. How the O Line is still this bad after so many years is beyond me.
- the defense giving up so many third and long conversions (not just yesterday but all year) is very concerning
- getting your best guy in space (Junior) the ball twice
- throwing a pick in the red zone when you had a chance to make it 14-10
- throwing a pick 6 late

Ugly:
- sdsu didn’t get called for one hold….not one when I saw it on 80% of plays. Not that it mattered.
- how the staff has managed the QB situation all year. Abysmal.
 
A serious ask….that the word DOLA be retired and never mentioned on this board again. The O line isn’t close to this attitude or dominance. The way this o line got manhandled by many good defenses is downright embarrassing. I have never seen RBs getting blown up so many times when literally getting the hand off. How do you let guys in the backfield that fast, that often, that regularly. We need an overhaul of our O line more than any other position group on this team.
 
Good: the season is over
Bad: unsure of what is ahead for Grizzly football
Ugly: Bobby was asked at the presser why Ah Yat was the starter for the game. Bobby said" because he gives us the best chance to win"

GOOD: Defense did all they could to keep us in the game and made some good plays.

BAD: AhYat did not play well, scoring 2 garbage time TDs against a backup filled defense doesn't erase multiple 3 and outs and turnovers which led to our defense getting gassed.

UGLY: Coaching decisions the entire game especially on offense.

Jaxon Lee was a friggin machine in the game. That dude is a very, very good football player!
 
We have not recruited or developed well at the OL position since Hauck returned. We did let Germer and Rosy coast and collect a few more paychecks before they retired, which was a nice thing to do I suppose!
Few were harder on Germer than me. Love him as a former Griz - did not think he did well as a D1 position coach. Business is tough...

Give the new coach some time...
 
Moving ahead, correcting our vulnerabilities sure ain’t gonna be easy. Headwinds,such as our demographics, geography as well as having the $$$$$ to attract portal talent. Money game is the tall challenge of it all.

We haven't had a good O line since Pflu's last year. Since then is been a shit show.
 
It's pretty obvious SD State develops players and puts them in the NFL (Kraft, Goedert, Davis, McCormick), we got beat by a solid team that hasn't changed their formula.

Watch a Green Bay game or a Steelers game, those former SD guys are physical. The Griz needs to get some dudes that play with that kind of nasty streak. Hats off to them, they have a great program.
