    Well, they couldn’t block for shit. It’s difficult to call for that.

    Got ng for 2 was the obvious best decision. A big QB on roll out is hard to sto
    No one has called for more passes. Billy is known for using short passes as runs. People have called for more down the field passes like the TD Lagway threw the end. It's OBVIOUS Lagway is best when on the move and looking down field. BTW, if you defending Billy as a coach,you clearly do not understand the game.

    He didn’t draw that play up the way DJ and Dike made it happen.

    Yikes. And Tennessee ended the same streak set last in 1971 never having beaten us after a loss.

    He doesnt have a high Football IQ and lacks common sense. His offense doesn't have cohesion and rhythm. He has a Kyle Shanahan type ability to outsmart himself in huge moments. Kentucky looking like trash right now... but somehow this coach will find a way to take an L to em

    Well boys, we just witnessed the Napier special. I don't even need to list out the mistakes made as they are the same mistakes made in every other loss of his tenure. Here's to nailing the next hire. :emoji_beers:

    Probably pretty easy when he just made $500,000 for whatever you call that.

    He shows fire and emotion during the game and that is something we lack from our HC

    Read the post I quoted. Then realize that you're the one that doesn't understand, I'm certainly not defending Billy as a coach.

    That weird formation that caused Tennessee to call a timeout - if we had run it I wonder if we would have scored?

    Napier is proving to be the worst in the modern era, possibly worst all time.

    More passes than the other team doesn’t matter wise ass. When we are in effectively running the ball into a brick wall every 1st and 2nd down, and then calling a pass play with an empty backfield for a blitzing Defense to T off on the QB….those are the stats that matter.

    I just love the 2nd and long runs in the middle of the LOS. Do whatever you can to stay out of 3rd and long but I guess that's not what he (CBN) thinks you should do.

    The team played really hard and the defense gave us every chance to win this game. The game was lost in the first half when we should have built a much bigger lead. The playcalling by our head coach is just awful. Calling a WR sweep on 4th and inches when Johnson had been bowling people over was plain stupid. Same for calling a QB sneak on th Mertz fumble on first and goal from the 2 foot line. Give the dang ball to Montrell already. And the play calls in OT were awful. He's so predictable and bland. No imagination at all. Smack has been automatic and I think let the moment get to him on that OT kick. But it happens. The talen is there on this team and the effort was there as well. The head coach let the guys down once again, IMO. Very sad.

    I wish they would just stop talking about streaks like this. Napier just sees it as a chance to say hold my beer.

    Oh come on, you can acknowledge he called the TD play. Don't worry, he's still getting fired.
