Say Milton gets benched in the Swamp and Nico struggles as well, what’s going to be the excuse?

The WRs should have made several catches from Milton tonight.

Milton isn't gonna be here next year. If he looks like garbage in the first half, you pull him and you start building for the future with Nico. This team isn't going 10-2 with either QB. Need to take the same approach with the defense. Time to bench some defensive backs and start going young.

That's a good question....I would even ask, did they give it to a random person in the stands today? Anybody notice if Bajakian was in attendance today?

This was embarrassing on several levels and especially for the coaches. It’s their job to have the team ready to play. They clearly were not ready to play. Hopefully, the coaches get it together for next week.

A closed playbook caused bad passes and dropped passes?

No, but it did create a play calling scheme that is not the normal style for CJH. When he tries to do that, the flow is chaotic. If you remember the game, there were oly two series that looked like a normal sequence from CJH. On the first one, we went 75 yards in 90 seconds. The second time we went 75 yards in 58 seconds. I am not as worried as some are. I know that our coach hasn't suddenly forgotten how to call plays and the team isn't as bad as they looked tonight.

Playbook closed wasn’t missing throws or dropping the throws that were catchable.

We didn't draw up anything after the first quarter.

It's no excuse for how bad Milton and the receivers were however. But again everyone could see we didn't call anything special on offense. We just couldnt get out of our own way.

This is my thoughts exactly. I’ve been screaming for a change at DB for a while. Martinez seems to be a problem. I’m surprised he is still on the staff

I think tonight was an outlier. All week it was about when are the 2nd/3rd teamed gonna get in? Good dose of humble pie today. The coaches should use this to their advantage this week. Also—Refs were atrocious.

Corners look like Larry Slade is still on staff, either our talent out there is truly below SEC thresholds for that position or this guy can't coach corners that can play defense not looking at the receiver as he goes into his area, pass interference calls are becoming the norm and were plenty in the Orange Bowl in December, why no improvement in that area?

Defense as a whole is better, but we still have concerns in the secondary and within the linebacker ranks that will get expensive in the SEC conference schedule, we need to understand our schemes are just that schemes, we will with better talent, more aggressive players and those that are game day playmakers,

A win is a win, but all things considered, this was the worst played game of the Heupel era. NOT the worst loss (S Carolina, by a mile) but just the worst played game.

I hope the drops, poor throws, and penalties were an aberration, but that might just be who we are as a team with this bunch.

Totally agree. Josh clearly had a limited playbook today, this was about as unimaginative as you'll ever see a Heupel offense. But the team looked disinterested, clearly looking past a very feisty AP team. No excuse for the drops, missed tackles, and the sloppiness, and we just have to hope this acts a big time wake up call. I have to believe we'll see a completely different team next week.

Keyton and Bru are usually reliable so I chalk that up as uncharacteristic. Milton HAS to be better plain and simple

Also the playcalling in the bowl game with the exact same roster on offense besides Darnell at RT compared to what we've seen so far is completely different right now.
