When it comes down to it, our guys were playing at 11:00 at night.... It was a late game, give them some credit. They had a day and a half to get their bodies adjusted. You people need to calm down a little bit and be excited for our first home game

There is something to this. I visit Oregon quite a bit and every time I go out there, I'm usually sleepy for the first 2 days. Don't know if its the time difference, the cooler weather or the overall difference in the environment. (Portland's climate is similar to Seattle)

THe time difference theory is complete BS. I go home to Vegas and I am g2g. I don't even hire sleep experts like LSU did.

The time related fatigue didn't set in until the second half. And we actually played better in the second half.

BS. I will be leaving on Monday to Seoul, Bangkok, India, Turkey, UK, back to Korea and then Vietnam. Will be gone for one month. I do this at least 8 times a year. Now you want to talk about time zone. That is crap. How many nights during off season do you think these guys stay up late at night doing some party at full throttle. Give me a break.

Lame arse excuse....suck it up and kick arse.

There's not one of those players that's not out partying till 2 in the AM after every freakin home game.

Quit making excuses for them and hold them accountable for a crappy effort!

They were also playing in a harsh climate they weren't used to. And the air was thinner and harder to breather because of Seattle's ridiculously high elevation...

you forgot the fog, snow, sleet, and hail too.

Nice "elevation" one though, LOL. (for those who don't know, it's practically ZERO).

I actually saw several people use that as an excuse last night
