Mark Helfrich to the sideline reporter: “We are just not playing very well. The only thing we are happy with is the scoreboard.”
Ducks dominate in the count, ahead 43-16, but not executing crisply in any phase of the game. Missed blocks plague the running game. Just 13-24 passing with a handful of drops. The defense has given up 318 yards, several big plays, and four scoring drives. The kicking team letting the Buffs get out to the 30.
The starters will play no more than half the 3rd quarter, but they’ll be challenged to bring a little more urgency. Next week they face Washington in Seattle.
