One thing that I've read needs some fixing for this game is our gosh darn dagnabbit silent count.  I guess Iowa figured it out to some extent (we use a hand motion), which was a pretty big problem.

I love this staff, but we've had this issue before, it shouldn't be an issue, and I never want to hear about silent count issues again.

Also, per the presser Cig said they didn't let Fernando audible at Iowa due to crowd noise.  I'm sure he knows best, it's just a little odd to me since Fernando is a very capable QB.

Anyways, I'm not trying to second guess this fantastic coaching staff, I know 0.001% about football compared to them, I just find this stuff surprising.  I'm sure the silent count issues are known and will be fixed going into Autzen.  

Cig is about playing mistake-free football.  Part of that is keeping it simple (i.e.; conservative).  One blown audible and you have a fumble returned for 6.  That could be the ball game away from home.
