52-24.

It is what it is. I’m sick of moral victories and saying “it wasn’t a blowout”.

It was a blowout.

Same. I am sick of the excuses. Why can’t people understand that you can love this team, be proud and encouraged and acknowledge how much of sucks to get blown out?

 

[mr.checkerboards]

You just want to ask random questions? How many did Dooley score in year one against Alabama? Do you remember UAB took us to OT? I can play this game.

Except my question proves my point, this O has been inconsistent.

I love how hard this team plays.

Basically...I have zero issues with the intangibles I've seen from this team and staff so far.

But... Jeez... It's be nice to see that effort rewarded with a win that matters.

This program has been here, several times actually, over the last 12-15 years.. And almost every time we've come up short.

At some point... We need to win a game we're really not supposed to. We need to be the team that makes the plays. Not the one makes the game changing mistakes.

Siap... Didn't expect to win. So no sin in losing this game.

But I didn't expect it to be a game going in to the 4th either. Is that a moral victory? Yeah. It is.

At some point that can't be good enough.

It wasn't just this post...it is all of them. Nevermind me...carry on.

 

[SugarCC]

Yeah..I think some need to understand the difference between being angry at three team/coaches vs just being suck and tired of the same situation, every year.

I am not out on this staff, and certainly not this team.

That doesn't mean I can't still be pissed about losing seemingly every game like this that matters; that corks change the direction and perception of this program.

And every staff that's been here has had these opportunities. None have taken advantage.

Sigh.

You're pretty much speaking for me tonight, saying what I'm thinking, as well. The only thing I can think of to say, my only thought: wilts

He has a morbid fascination with posting stupid things that near the point of retardation.

 

[jakez4ut]

This.

I’m all in on Heup, but this was a 4 TD loss and we had chances.

4 TDs.

We don't have the horses for games like this, or last week. It is what it is.

Need three years.

That is dumb as hell. I never knew a question could prove a point.

That proves that we are on par with Dooley’s first season? Just stupidity.

It proves the offense has been inconsistent. Which proves my comparison. Defense has been good. Offense is inconsistent.

We need two deep solid players...however long that takes. I hope he figures out a way to get there quicker.

I know one thing I believe in my soul right now...give this staff top 10 talent, and they will bring home a title, or at least really compete for them.

How do? By using a question?

You’ve proven nothing and been quite bad at trying.

Facts suck.

You watched the same game i did. After the first quarter the offense went quiet, they had one big play. So it can be good, it can be bad. The defenition of inconsistent.
Whatever im done with this, ive got a league pennant to celebrate.

It's hard not to see what they've done in a very short amount of time. It would lend itself to believing that over a long enough time line, this staff gets it done.

I'm very hopeful for the future.

Whatever problems this offense has, it's directly tied to o line depth. That's it.

Spot on. If we had better depth and could run the ball…

i dont think we have weapons at WR

 

[Tennessee Golfer]

? I think we do.

Not at all an issue this year. The schemes have gotten guys open from the Pitt game until now.

not what i meant. WR who can make guys miss, also can blaze

I know we don't have o line depth. I have seen Payton and Jones make plays. I've seen Hyatt flash.

Our o line... It's a problem

Those would be nice, but they aren’t required in this scheme. Payton has at least 3 45+ TD catches. Tillman had a 75 yarder tonight and was open multiple times early in the year when Milton missed him.

I will just say that our WR group isn’t what’s holding us back from being 6-2 instead of 4-4.

secondary.

 

[VolGee4]

secondary.

OL and pass rush. 3rd downs are very much a problem because we can’t get pressure.
