    Got it-but fsu has a better record than we do before he flipped to us..he didn't flip to us because they had a poor record or showing was my point-
    Cormani picked the u-they have an awful record and playing worse-the O line man and the line backer said they are 100% committed to the u

    That’s the only viable theory.

    It really is baffling.

    I get upset as anyone and it does take some time to cool down. I’m okay with the game thread being negative when we play like crap. Having time to cool off, we can take some things in perspective.

    This team is not good. We all know that. The future is bright though, but we have to take these lumps along the way.

    This game shows why we are recruiting WRs in this class. That room needs to be flipped expeditiously

    so many dropped easy passes early on….that JUCO transfer is not very good.

    Pearsall? Thought he was one of the better ones

    I don't think Napier's playcalling and decisions are bad, although I wish the 2-minutes were cleaned up a bit with the timeouts and stuff. None of that makes much sense to me.

    And for the life of me, I can't figure out why we constantly have a receiver in motion pre-snap who just hangs out in the backfield once we snap the ball. What is the point? It doesn't confuse the defense, it doesn't draw a defender to that player, it doesn't shift the secondary or coverage one way or the other. It's literally just taking one of our downfield options completely out of the play.

    We had 3 of our top 4 guys out. If Trent were still here, he would’ve gotten significant minutes.

    Vandy had an 82 yard drive with 1 pass. They moved the ball quite well at various points throughout the game. I think you can blame part of the loss on the defense. They can hold Vandy to field goals. Turnovers happen to everyone.

    Bama and UGA figured it out. Establish a system and get a game manager QB who is decent enough, and surround him with the talent.

    That way success is never dependent on a single player and you don’t have to worry about that x-factor going to the draft early

    Talent is not here yet. We needed AR to step up and he refused. That’s where we are at.

    Running game was very inconsistent today. Feast or famine.

    Hard to believe coming off a 6-7 record last year some posters here still do not want to admit we have some talent issues.

    Our oline got beat and couldn’t create much. When we did, the plays got called back. We needed AR to read correctly and keep the ball on those read options. He wouldn’t.

    It wasn’t playcalling, it was AR. That’s what I saw.

    Bama is churning out 1st round QBs and the next may be #1 overall

    That is just lately with Tua, since then they have had the luxury of stockpiling 5-star qbs

    Before that they were successful with some decent guys who were never a threat to be a top draft pick

    It's often a checkdown option that AR very rarely uses despite it sometimes being the best play available.

    I agree-it is best to walk away for awhile before posting while upset-cooling down helps :) Found it really helps when you're upset and want to tell someone off cause you believe they have done you wrong or your are angry-waiting helps tp clear my head and not say things I may regret later..
