A 10-year Excuse Treadmill

I can't figure out why a 2nd year coach and a bunch of true freshman are getting bashed for not beating a ranked team?

The sorry state of mental health care in the United States or rampant meth use are my top two guesses.

Because the same rocket surgeons on here that predicted a 6-6 season can't understand that to have 6 loses, you have to lose some games.

No Matter if we are winning or losing, There will always be excuses or Negative Fans. People will not be satisfied. 10% will always complain and second guess, no matter what happens, this mentality exists in every organization.

Reality and reason some don't get it and they don't want to get it. So they complain.

I give props to nobody until we start winning freakin' SEC football games, which might be never. I'm tired of being told that we should "chill out," or that Butch has got us on the right track, or that we are "close," or that we should be "patient" because the OL or the QB or the WRs or the RB or the laundry boys "need more experience;" I'm tired of hearing the "if onlys"---if only Worley didn't get hurt, or if only we didn't fumble or if only the officials didn't hate us. We've been on an excuse treadmill for 10 years. There are ALWAYS issues--every year: we will always be playing inexperienced players, there will always be injuries and bad breaks, etc. EVERY team deals with the same things. You either win or you don't. And we don't. Until we freaking' start winning, nothing encourages me. Worley will be gone next year--and we'll be lining up with more excuses. I like Jones--but until he wins games he's done nothing.

Seems as if you have been sitting in the armchair too long and have lost your mentality. While I agree that we need to win and that we are likely to start a true freshman at QB next year, we will win a SEC championship within the next three years. We have not had this capability for over ten years and I, for one, am very excite about the future.
