Because some are sick of watching him turn the ball over in the redzone. To be fair it's really aggravating.

Let it go.

Not really. Even Yeldon couldn't run behind our line at times. They were the worst in the SEC for stretches.

Bet Yeldon would fall forward and actually hit an hole instead of running up OL back. Just saying... It's not all on OL. People fail to see this.

While id agree with that, it still doesn't bring cause for redemption. If his entire game was shite, yes id agree with yancy... but just for that, nah, just something he needs to be more conscious of

If I watched one of our guards pull into a hole after the RB was already there I was going to jump the barricade and kill Matt Luke with my bare hands

I'm glad he's participating over here. We need to figure out which poster is Neal and have us a good ole fashioned thunderdome

Itavius Mathers' biggest problem this year was he beat Justin Bell to the hole on every play Bell pulled.

He also falls if someone blows on him and it is NEVER forward.

That and he can't catch Ebola

He's a system QB skirp.

I can see an argument for that but I'm not sure I agree. Even if this is true, which I'm not buying because of how good he was at EMCC, you have to have a good QB regardless of the system. I thought the same thing about Manziel, and look at how Hill has turned out. I will agree that the system allowed him to put up the numbers. I don't think Bo is superior to Eli, but the system allowed him to pass him in multiple records. Being in a good offensive system bolsters stats but it doesn't pull them out of thin air.
Even if the system is inflating Bo more than I think, he is still a once in 10 years type of player. He has done well, specifically this year, and he deserves a tip of the hat.

I agree with all of this except for this...

I mean, it's been 10 years since either Mississippi school has had a QB as good as him. It's probably been 30 since state did before Dak.
Granted, the game has changed a lot so a static comparison isn't really possible.

Yeldon would get a couple of yards. Freeze has been determined to stick with his offensive scheme and run read options on first down. I'll take a constant two-three yards from a Henry type RB compared to a constant zero - half a yard from our stable of scat backs.

Solution... DONT BEAT GUARD TO THE HOLE! It's called vision and very few of our RBs have it

That fumble where he was on top of an Auburn player in the redzone stretching out the ball 2nd to last drive wakes me up at night.
You got some serious issues bro.
Bo has undoubtably done questionable things over the course of his career at OM but look at the whole career and not single boneheaded plays.
Do you not think Bo is truly one of the greatest players to dress in red and blue and take the field for the rebels? If your answer is no, you sir, have unrealistic expectations and should seriously consider other schools to cheer for . Bo will forever be remembered as a top 25 player at our university and a top 3 qb. Call it crazy, call it whatever you'd like, he IS a all time great, and if you don't think so, just read his stats and say "we were fortunate to have him as a leader and I remember when Bo helped beat number 1 alabama and the goal post came down"!

By the way, Snead never won 9 regular season games. It took a Cotton Bowl victory to win 9, both years.
Hell it would be nice to have the perfect linemen to fit our offensive scheme, but we don't.
It would have been nice if Bo threw for 4000 yards, but he didn't.
All I'm concerned about, is beating the Horn Frogs. Can they get that done, imperfections and all. Just win, baby!
Don't start sounding like Bama fans, they bitch about every play not being a TD. They bitch about not winning by more points. They bitch about getting cheated out of another NCG.
Enjoy this.. or bandwagon your arse somewhere else. I hear FSU takes on bandwagon fans.
