He was trying to give his senior qb an opportunity to pull it together in his final game. I think the idea was that he couldn't play much worse, so he's bound to put it together eventually. He never really did.

But I think most coaches would have done the same given the circumstances.

Ya know, you are probably right, but as a fan, it's frustrating as frick to watch a shite show continue. I like Franklin, but he has games where he is just awful on decision making and accuracy, and obviously, this was one of those games. Just glad it didn't backfire.

Honestly bad coaching. I get JF is a senior but there's 85 guys on that roster that work their arse off too. His job is to do whats best for the team and he didn't.

This had something to do with it. Franklin's a good QB, but dang his inaccuracy almost cost Missouri the game.
