I just want to voice my opinion over something that has became a staple of all of those who still support dooley and this staff. For some reason we keep hearing they played hard and didn't quit all the time from these people, like those are qualities that deserve praise. Those are great qualities to have, but those are expectations, not things to be praised for if you don't win. We play in the SEC. We're not in some upward basketball league where you do your best and get a trophy no matter what. You win, you get praise, you lose, you get criticism. You lose too much, you lose your job, wether you played hard or not. So quit pacifying this team. In the great words of Dan Hawkins, "its division 1 football!!!!, its not intermurals!!"

721 yards. Think about that. If that does not scream quit, I am not sure what does. They did not just lay down on the field and take a nap, I will give them that. If they had.....maybe someone from Troy would have tripped over them and not scored. There were 11 guys playing on defense at any 1 time. It looked like alot of quit to me.

If the team isn't quitting then we have bigger problems than we thought. If you try your best and a team like Troy is playing with you, I don't think you are an SEC quality team.

Our D against UF looks good compared to yesterday, that fairy Driskel got hit a few times by us. I think they gave up

How they get so far out of position is amazing

They are taught gap control in pee wee football
It's like they don't care

Our team did not quit on defense, it's just we scored so fast at times we were gassed for going back out on the field. Sometimes they were just out of their gaps & not knowing where to be at certain times. There was a lot of missed tackles for sure to create that many yardage by the other team. I'm still in shock over the dropped pass in the end zone by Vincent Dallas; could have been the sun. I did notice, that in the fourth QTR, we were playing w/ the sun in our face & you would think that from now on we avoid that circumstance.

I still cant believe we are having to waste timeouts because we cant get right personal out on the field or we play with 9 or 10 or 12 people on the field.
THIS HAS GONE ON FOR 3 YEARS.

Troy recievers must've been using welding lenses for contacts or something. Didn't seem to affect them.
