Did anyone else feel Georgia was celebrating the win WAAAAAYYYYY to early last night? There was like 54 seconds left, Alabama had all 3 timeouts and onside kicks seem to be far more successful in college ball than the pros. I mean if I am a Georgia fan I would been screaming at the TV...they didn't have some starting defense guys on the field in what turned out to be BAMA's last drive

I didn't until Alabama started marching right down the field. But, yes, Alabama somehow pulling off a :54 second comeback crossed my mind.

I have a friend that is a Georgia fan. He's nervous. He's also so used to Georgia choking against Bama that he won't let himself believe.  I am thinking about how different these games are when they don't really mean anything and are just entertainment.   

It made me think about the 1995 Orange Bowl. Do you remember how nervous you were? I thought we could win that game but I was so used to getting crushed by our bowl game defeats that I was too scared to fully believe.

I also remember knowing at the 1st Schelsinger TD that we were going to win. Miami was tired. They were beat down.  They were trying to play assignment sound football but there were just too many....options! Both of those calls were examples of patient genius. Set up the whole game.

I wish we played games that mean something.

Wait…..you’re allowed to run those back?

When you look at the portal visitors we have coming in there has to be more roster churn coming.

See Glantz was offered. I like him quite a bit, more than any QB we had on our roster last year.

 

curious about this. Does it mean no Chubbawumba? Smothers is leaving? None of the above?

Agreed.  I figure if Scott wins 8 games, he's safe.  But if he only wins 8, he's definitely done.  Anything in between those numbers...things get iffy.

What if we only win 8 but it’s close in the loses and we see improvement?

Keep dreaming....odds are that we win 8 games. 

I say 8 games or bust.

Funny thing is, none of the guys in this class are highly rated, so losing any one of them probably doesn't even hurt much...

I was going to say the same thing.

Having a Running Backs coach would probably be useful for keeping Rb recruits.

Head coaches ... yes.  Most of the big ones are all done through agents.

 

Assistants?  I don't think so.  They are not being hired through "informal conversations."  That's why there have been very few hired to this point.

I would appreciate it if you would stop bringing rational thought to this thread.

Clearly this thread is for hyperbolic doom and gloom ‘they don’t have a plan’ ‘no one wants to come here’ posting only. 

There is some serious wrist cutting in here

Yes this WF offense is different. That mesh point thing seems like it will cost you more often than not.  It would get blown up with our OL as it takes too much time and our pocket would collapse. You have to have a very good offensive line and a QB that can throw strong darts. It seems like you are creating a lot of added stress on your offense if you can’t protect, have mesh point issues, or a QB that takes too long to read. Has not looked good tonight.  

I was making jokes about the picks.

That mesh point though- that thing gets blown up in the BIG all day long.

Should we really be worried about anyone leaving a 3-9 team with 4 years of losing?

Wake Forest qb throwing picks in crunch time. Bring that oc here! We know how this works!

Also, they hold the read option meshpoint a really long time.

He got the axe from Vandy two years ago. He's currently working as a loan consultant. https://www.linkedin.com/in/gerry-gdowski-a3b4a81a3

we call that the Lubick method.

I’m watching Utah pound the rock right now. I’m in for that guy based on two drives in a blow out game.

He made a totalaly bad situation way worse by bringing frost back another year.  frost fires 4 of his buddies and anyone that thinks they will be replaced by high quality Asst coaches is crazy.  Everybody in the college football world knows frost is a lame duck.  I'm not sure who he will talk into coming to Lincoln, but it wont be the best of the best.  Probably not any better than what we had, and what we had was terrible!  Trev just kicked the can down the road another year plus has to sign the new asst coaches to at least 2yr contracts.  What a mess. 

did you just reset your password?

Actually, since Trev announced that Frost is getting another year, many are so demoralized that they lost hope. What you see is boredom setting in. The bye week does not help either. Things will get interesting again after the Wisconsin game, win or lose.

That’s a pretty fair point

The losing had started making fans say dumb things. This thread is exhibit A….actually is probably exhibit M or N but it is evidence for sure.

Just now, I am I said:

No one should shank a punt 7 yds. That’s player 

no one should false two times in row. That’s player. 
no one should punt it against coverage. That’s player. 
 

This was not a poorly called game, there were terrible gaffes by players. 
 

do I think Frost needs to make changes? Yes. But this one wasn’t on him. Several plays by players on the field to do their job didn’t do them. We did NOT get outcoached. 

‘you are either coaching it, or allowing it’

New ways to s#!t the bed

Do we not know the difference between left and right?

Belt up the middle? well... i guess no one would see it coming?

Rewatching the game. OU first drive. 3rd and 11. doesn’t it look like CTB plays the ball and not his man? If he plays his man it is probably 4th and 2. OU might still have gone for it bc of field position but that is the 2nd time I think he has given up a first down bc of this.

Not getting off the field on 3rd down is a killer.

still not convinced Rattler was in on that goal line td.
