Lots of positions are holding us back.

QB is one. We all agree that Milton just doesn’t seem to go through progressions very quickly, but he also doesn’t have receivers video game open like Hooker last year. Also, Hooker’s decision making was phenomenal.



Georgia is. Missouri should not have been. Mizzou ticked me off. Georgia just whipped us.

Why?

Well, tell me who #35 is without looking at a lineup. Or # 17. Or #84. We are not putting players on the field who we hoped to be putting on the field. I know it happens to all teams, but let’s face it, there were 6 guys on the field at all time for us who would’t be in UGA’s three deep.
And our O-line? Well I thought Wright was going to be our biggest loss, but one thing Hooker had that Joe does not have as much was a ton of time in the pocket. UGA’s we hardly got touched.

Again, I don’t like it, but that’s what I see.


Well, if the last two weeks are concerning, buckle up for next year. Unless Nico is a miracle worker, I think our record will be the same/one game worse than this year.

However, I think after that we will start to climb.

Frankly Heupel’s quick success hurts him in the fans’ eyes because we seem to regress. In reality, last years team had tons of talent. Not only couldn’t we replace it, but those who tried to replace it are not on the field wihh the injury.

Heupel’s system is designed on winning one on one battles. Georgia’s guys are better than ours; we didn’t win one on ones. We got whipped. Hopefully, we get the talent on board to change that, but it won’t happen overnight.

Yeah, I mean, Rome wasn't built in a day.

You know what's funny about the Cowboys conversation..when I look around that's the only team that people pull for on here that has 5 Super Bowl Trophies ...don't care when they won them...@Cobbwebb0710 hell at least his team has 2 Super Bowl Trophies...Lions hasnt even sniffed one, Titans just a little short by a couple of yards ...and Falcons biggest choke job in Super Bowl history.....

Remind me again how many NFC Championship games the Cowboys have participated in within the past 25 years?

Dammit boys, gotta accept my own blame for our performance these last few weeks.

We haven’t scored, and I haven’t dropped a single “Prostate!” to try to rally the team.

It’s called accountability, and I have to lead by example, so I apologize to you all.

Everyone needs to have a prostate exam before the Vanderbilt game to ensure us of a victory.

The sad part is that if we had the exact same team as last year with this year’s schedule, today would have been our first loss of the season. Timing seems to never be on our football program’s side.

Truth. I think last year’s team could have beaten this Georgia team. But, as you say, timing is everything.
