This week we play division-leading Sacramento, who are without starting QB Seymore Barre. Instead they'll head into battle with 5th year man Everett Dole under center. Sacramento appears to have a downfield passing orientation on offense, so we'll have to be careful in the secondary.

Wow. We held Dole to just 13 completions on 34 attempts, but he still connected for 324 yards! That's crazy - so crazy that it almost cost us the game. Those 12 penalties for 100+ yards weren't helpful, either. Thank heavens for OT!
