Quick React: Arizona 37 Oregon State 32

Big game for Wildcat Nation. Nick Foles asserted himself as the starting quarterback for now, and the future. The defense did what they had to do, and made big plays when necessary.

I hate to whine about the referees, but man, did they blow some serious calls today. Two reviews were ridiculously wrong: Oregon State's 2 point conversion, and Canfield's "first-down" run on 4th down in the 4th quarter. On both plays, it was clear that they did not cross the plane of the endzone, or get the first down, yet the officials on the review thought otherwise. Color me confused.

Regardless, big win by Arizona. The Pac-10 is wide open now with USC and Cal both having a conference loss, and the Trojans and Bears matching up next week. Why not Arizona? Exactly. Let's see Nick "Sunshine" Foles grow into this role. He led a great offense this week without Nic Grigsby and Keola Antolin.

Great road win for Arizona. Let's build off this. Go Cats! Bear Down everybody!

Good WIn Today!

The Cats looked good, especially Foles…man, I knew he should be the starter all along! The Refs, yea, they sucked, but the CATS didnt let that beat them! We rocked! What’s up with our running backs? Any news? We showed some real grit pulling the game out without them and we also had some players step up!

We need this week off. Grigsby, get healthy and ready to beat the Huskies!

was pretty impressed

by the atheletes those Rodgers kids are. Many kudoes to Foles for not folding and for the Dline for putting this game away. I always thought you had to punt post a safety but I guess that’s only a pro requirement. Yes the Cats were subject to some home cooking based on the reviews, I’m sure Coach Stoops may be sending some game tapes to the officials office this week but all in all, the team simply persevered. Way to recruit coach, that Nwongo kid looks like a find.

I used to be disgusted, now I try to be amused....
