The offense is PATHETIC and the only one to blame is Henson. He has got to adjust his play calling to the talent on the field. Also, Pinkel has got to get his head in the game. Why he didn't get a review for the obvious fumble called an incomplete pass I have no idea and the delay after the TO was unacceptible among other very questionable coach decisions and non-decisions. sorry guys no SEC east repeat this year or probably next. Oh well I was fun last year

Hell if Mizzou could find an offense they'd be deadly. Sheesh. Defense is playing better than I expected. Offense not pulling their weight.

True, but at least we aren't the worst dumpster fire.

When you lose to us, by 29, at home, for homecoming. Your program has become a tire fire.

Florida has reached tire fire status.

We do what we do.

It's both an excuse and a mission statement, all at the same time.

If Prince and Berkstresser are that far from seeing playing time then pull their scholarships at the end of this year. And get a new QB coach.

I do not believe they are that far from playing time. I just see the real HCGP again. Last year he changed to save his job. Now he is going back to his old self.

This. If it were just a bad game, I'd be like whatever. But it's been like 5 bad games and
20 yards!?!?!?! I still can't get over that number. I'm not buying into the argument that if Printz or Berk or Zanders were better, they'd be playing. 20 yards? really?

I'm not sure how we are legitimately winning but I am glad we are. I still stand by my criticisms of Pinkel, hopefully that "come to jesus" moment occurs. Because they could win out and finish 10-2 if they just put up 250-300 yes of offense. That's crazy.

I find it pretty hard to blame Henson. Our QB sucks. Damn near impossible to have a productive offense when that is the case. Run the ball you say? That's hard to do when the defense is stacking the box and shooting gaps because they don't respect your QB. It is a shame because we are wasting a good team otherwise that easily could have won the East again. Hard to blame Pinkel either. Now, where they do get some blame is not giving anyone else a chance. The fact that Probtz has not gotten one series the past 3 games is indefensible. You have to at least see what he can do. Maybe he sucks as bad as Mauk (doubtful), but you have to at least give him a look. GP won't though. He won't make a QB change under any circumstance, and the balance of our season rests on Mauk's ability to at least become passable. I'm not confident.

The good news is. Every team on our schedule is beatable. The bad news would be we can lose to all of them as well if we keep running out Mauk and Pinkel has made it clear he will.

You make sense reedus. I thought Berk back when Franklin was hurt came in and done a respectable job. Wasn't flashy but made us competitive at least and was a legit threat running the ball because of his size. I just don't know what Berk lost between then and now to put him down in the QB cellar. He has a good arm and size to run. what else does Pinkel need?

I think if Mauk continues his lack of production, I could see a change. But to who? Printz or Berk?

I was on the MM bandwagon last year and thought this was his breakout season, not breakdown season. I'm beginning to wonder if he is really that good or not. He's simply not bouncing back from these bad games.

I've always been a Printz guy myself. Thought his freshman year he really came in and impressed. Mauk understandably got the PT when Franklin went down and did admirably, though his numbers weren't exactly great. I was willing to get on the Mauk train because of that experience and he played well, though not having a QB competition in the spring surprised me a little bit.

At this point, if MM continues to come out and throw for 1 yard per attempt, I don't care which it is, Berk or Printz, but someone has to be given a chance. If we have any resemblance of an offense, all of the last games are absolutely winnable. With no resemblance of an offense, they are all losable if D and ST don't score 29 a game.

That's exactly what happened.

There is no problem with our offense, we just went "ultra-conservative."

I don't think he changed. remember late last year when JF was doing his best to lose games and GP refused to pull him. The lack of a secondary gameplan or adjustments. The team managed to win despite him last year, and they are fighting like hell this year despite him.
