    Guess that frees up your Saturdays now ;)
    While disappointed, it is a game, entertainment so to speak...
    It always darkest before the dawn

    I wasn't particularly optimistic going into this game but I didn't expect this.

    I have to say unless someone can prove otherwise, Napier might be the worst OC in the SEC.

    I have one question... why didn't we stack the box on defense the entire game? Leary was never going to beat us.

    Agree that the last call was pathetic. D has been good other than today, although an ongoing concern is lack of turnovers, even when we have balls hit us in the hands.

    Agree. The vast disparity in number of penalties questions the officiating, not the poor play of the team

    I'm getting a feeling today that unfortunately, I've felt several times in the last few years. This isn't going to work.

    Agree - but when it's the ONLY thing he does it shows it's a habit, not necessarily an in-game decision

    I actually agree. At least the offense might be servixeable

    New clock rules this year. Out of bounds only stops clock after two minute warning.

    The OL is not very athletic or strong

    Mertz frequently has stuff early, second guess his self and then it is too late.

    Wow. A 4th and 2 run into a pile to end the game basically. Though it was over long ago.
    I actually had us losing today but…my trust in the coaching staff is at an all time low due to how we lost. Getting beat down by UK along with the various gaffes is just not acceptable.

    Many may disagree but…normally, any loss to Vandy to me is a fireable offense. Losing back to back to UK is a fireable offense. Billy’s MO on offense is just going to cut it in the SEC in this day of modern college football.

    i have no choice but to hope he can reassess this offense in the off season (wont happen mid season but if he does so, I’d be impressed. Only option really is to hand off play calling go Russ Callaway and let him install some of his air raid). Special teams analyst needs to go in the off season if not today. 2 oline coaches is not working based both on play on the field and recruiting.

    man I want Napier to succeed but he is holding himself back with his offensive play calling /system.
