Well, at least we're not SC amirite?

Edit: baldy got me

After the piss poor performance I saw today. I'll take any bit of good news I can get. I hope La Tech keeps them scoreless. Misery loves company and all that.

 

[LaagerVol]

Sucks to feel like the season is already over.

We may have struggled to beat UMass...but at least we;re not...USCe, who is losing to La Tech....lol

At least La Tech is 2-1, unlike the 0-4 team we skated by today. Not attacking you either, BB...just making the obvious reply to what you stated.

BC giving Clemson a hell of a game.

 

[LaagerVol]

Oh, one other thing...I was all for seeing what JG could do again. However, for all those wanting him over QD, you are crazy. He's not ready and it's not even close. Looked terrible. Threw one beautiful ball, and honestly it looked like Johnson lackadaisically dropped it on purpose, which made me continue to think that there's a huge division in the locker room. JG shouldn't get anymore snaps again unless it's in garbage time, which if Butch remains the coach, he may get a lot garbage time when we are down 3-4 TDs.

Oh yeah, throw that draw play that takes about 10 seconds to develop out of the play book!! If you would hand it off after about a 1.5 second delay then it would be successful, but we hold it way too long.

That draw play was killing me, esp when we left the backside DE unblocked

 

[LaagerVol]

Can we get Justin Wilcox to come back? Cal looks amazing compared to last year. He's doing more with less than I have seen in some time

West coast guy

Sorry, buddy!

Hope Vanderbilt is happy. Talked ish now they're having to pony up

When we hold it for about 1.5 secs, it is successful. JK has broken a couple of long ones when timed correctly. Problem is both QD and JG have held it for what seems like 5-6 secs.

Exactly. Our OL struggled today too.

 

[BaldBiker]

Vandy may be lucky to get 100 yds of offense in that game.

 

[captainfalcon777]

West coast guy

True, but damn I love the way his team is playing. They aren't very talented but they are making plays

Agreed. He is a really good coach

 

[VolGee4]

DJ Durkin, anyone?

USCe also getting beat late.

 

[captainfalcon777]

Agreed. He is a really good coach

He makes great adjustments at half time too. They have been a second half team this year

 

[BaldBiker]

well at least we didn't have to kick a field goal with 4 secs left in the game to win. That's something. Right guys? Right?





Guys?





Hello?

 

[BaldBiker]

Vanderbilt has 78 yards. FOR THE GAME!!!!

 

[The Breakerboy]

Surprised??

 

[I4Jay]

Haha yep. We don't have a good QB on our roster right now. Both of them can be good, but neither One is.

Both aren't great, we don't have a large sample size for Guarantano. They babied him his first series. PA Waggle to TE, which everyone knew was coming to get him rhythm stopped for negative gain lmao

He made a throw and a scramble that were good. But again, square peg round hole, no deep shots for Guarantano.
The best thing he showed was not being skittish when a rusher was in his fave, that gives me confidence going forward.
The rest was vanilla and a myriad of oline errors and drops.

SMH losing Ethan Wolfe was huge loss in the run game. He does a lot of the wham and trap blocking.

This team looks lost mostly because the head coach is lost.

 

[I4Jay]

Nope. Seems like Jimbo struggles to keep more than1 good QB at a time on the roster.

Did you watch the game? Blackman will probably be better than Francois in the long run.
The problem with FSU is The OLINE and their defense. QB played really well. Especially considering the truck stick type hits he took all game from Chubb. This FSU QB will be a STAR.

 

[BaldBiker]

Surprised??

No. Not really. Our goal should be to beat that. That's the only thing we'll have a chance to beat that day.
