He's a great OC and I'm thrilled to have him, has done a tremendous job at UA.

I still think it's fair criticism that he called a pretty dreadful game today.

We gashed them up and down the field and when we got in the red zone our entire offensive scheme drastically changed.

I strongly get the feeling our regular offense puts the ball in the end zone much more easily.

He also seems not to believe in your QB having an off day and adjusting the play calling accordingly.

It's easy to play armchair OC i guess, just my thoughts.

Nowhere close.

We scored 14 points and put up n amazing 220 yards of offense on a mediocre at best Arkansas in 2014.

we had 12 plays where we lost yards on the O side. That is playing behind the chains on many series. Our QB took a step back in some regards and was having an awful day throwing the ball. Even on some plays he took a huge loss instead of throwing it away.

Easily Arkansas in 2014.

Still say the Sugar Bowl loss to Ohio St was Kiffin's worst called game. Bama was running the ball at will against them and then Bama refused to run the ball.

Against Arkansas in 14, nothing was working. Bama couldn't run or pass. I don't think that had to do so much with playcalling. Arkansas's D-Line was destroying Bama's O-Line that game.

Nope. Can't blame him for expecting his quarterback to complete the easy ones.

I don't blame Kiffin for Arkansas 14, the team was just completely off that day.

OSU in the Sugar Bowl is indeed a candidate though. Still, the offense put up a ton at the end of the day. Defense played an equal role in that loss.

Worst this year maybe.

Arky '14 and TSIO '15 were worse IMHO

Honestly this team should never score less than 40 ppg especially when you have a D that is always going to give you the ball in the redzone at least once or just an outright td

It was bad. Jalen didn't do him many favors, either, except scoring.
