I'm really impressed with Arcega-Whiteside. He is big, tall, fast and has great hands. Is he always this good? Or is this an unusual game for him?

I placed the bet on UNLV

Ya, I get to see that show in person next week. SC better get their defensive backfield in order fast

To cover, smart. That spread is insane, and SC never covers the spread.

Always been a TD guy but never consistent with catches and yards. This year could be very different

Gameday!!

The guy looks legit. With Costello (I thinking that's his name) throwing well, the guy will put up numbers. Next week will be the true test for a lot of players on both teams.

I don't see AW having the same success against Marshal as he is the type of receiver that Marshal loves to cover.

If I'm a Stanford fan, I'd be concerned about Love's performance. SC can replicate that type of shutdown without the commitment up front. And, SC will get to the QB far more successfully.

SC has to worry about generating offense. SC's line is suspect, and they have a HS senior throwing. Stanford's D is more than capable of taking advantage of that situation.

He had a sort of breakout game early in season vs Oregon last year, but then he was hurt a few games and pretty quiet until bowl game vs TCU when he had 3 TDs.

He's a good receiver, and didn't hurt that
SDS was keying so much on Love that it gave many 1-on-1 opportunities for receivers. If teams continue to load up the box to stop Love, as long as Stanford has a QB who is competent throwing a forward pass as Costello seems to be, then Whiteside could have a monster year.

Kinda sucks for Love, I don't think that game killed his Heisman chances but it put a big dent in them.

Bosa is looking good … he's giving the Oregon State Beavers fits, with his pass rush !

Yeah keying on Love left a lot of one on one out there. The San Diego State Aztecs actually have a pretty decent defense as far as the front 7. The line and linebackers are pretty good. But the corners IMO aren't that great. So it's not surprising to me to see them get burned some one on one. They had some recent departures to the NFL from the secondary. I don't think the secondary is that good this year. So it's difficult to say how good AW is. But he sure looked great in that game. I was very impressed. He is somebody to keep an eye on for the next level. He appears to have the size and speed to play in the NFL someday.

A guy I really like from SDS is Juwan Washington, he looked damn good vs Stanford..I remember him backing up Penny but that's about it, didn't realize how good he is, he could open some eyes this year.

SC's offensive line is absolute trash. Complete trash... I mean Rick Newhesal UCLA level.

I could throw a rock five times into the stands and find five superior "players".

Dline not looking too impressuve(really autocorrect?) either. Still early though. Utah looked like straight garbage their first half.

SC is losing. Line sucks, running backs are camping the handoffs, freshman QB, and typical big play score on the D.

Right now, I think SC needs a new coach. Maybe Herm can step stone ASU... would be an upgrade.

What I'm watching now... ya, reminds me why I can never be a coach.

I'd be sending players to the other side of the field. "If you want to play for them, you can stand with em!"
