I can’t say that you’re wrong. I’m not sure what happened to Seth, he looked to be a really good center early in his career but the pressure of starting or whatever the reason was caused him to play with no confidence.

He never could get passed it to anchor the line

It's the excuse many of our fans have latched onto. It's a simple one that doesn't require any indepth analysis, and it's gone now. It's perfect for the casual fan.

There were a lot of issues. Snaps was one of them, poor QB play was a bigger one, and subpar assistant coaches was another big one.

But, it was definitely that handful of bad snaps that caused the entire offense to struggle.

Was he one of the worst-blocking centers in the country, or do you just insist on blaming 90% of 2023 on the bad snaps?

I actually thought our offense improved when McLaughlin replaced Dalcourt. I thought he was a much better blocker, it’s just those bad snaps. That’s a pretty important part of being a center on a team that snaps out of shotgun over 90% of the time

Looks like everyone is in mid-season form, I see.

Lord. This board is going to implode at the first sign of adversity after watching the last 17 yrs. We’re already arguing and have not seen the first snap.

I nearly pissed myself laughing at this little exchange.

Can any one of you let me know how the errant snaps caused this play to happen? Check out the lack of recognition here to the delayed back from the backfield motion. Was it Seth's snaps that caused Nick's defenses to be horrible defending this type of play for so many years?

Look, folks, I'm not defending the bad snaps, nor am I defending Seth. But what I AM doing is pointing out that the loss to Michigan had more than one root cause. The quality of coaching from top to bottom declined over the last 7-8 years, and accelerated during the last few.


Oooops!

Right…because this board’s focus really affects outcomes. What are we supposed to be focused on before the first snap?

Your incontinence?

Regarding all the penalties at Auburn, a lot of those are complete BS when it comes to Bama playing at Jerkin Hair. You can always count on several what I like to call "magical calls", i.e. complete BS calls and conversely, NOTHING gets called on the Aubs.

Look at who the official was for the game last year. Jason Autrey. Enough said.

No that was by design from Rees. Milroe has thrown multiple touchdowns on a slant. You really think this kid made it all the way to being the starting quarterback at Alabama and can’t throw a quick slant. He may not be Tua at it but he’s serviceable. You fail to realize how bad Tommy Rees is as an OC. Notre Dame had horrible offenses under him.

to be fair they missed a horrendous facemask on the kickoff where our guy basically ripped the AU's head off. But I agree with you, it seems all the petty crap that every other team gets away with we seem to get called on when we are in that shithole.

"NC State is the clear front-runner in his recruitment ..."

We are living in the end times when NC State is the clear front-runner for ANY football player who doesn't have a parent on staff at that university.

Replace NC State with Wake Forrest. NC State has a respectable football lineage.

They even missed a safety at the end and didn't even count Arnold's pick 6. Just to confirm that they're the absolute worst crew in the conference, and maybe the country.

Is it possible someone new is committing soon? He tweeted something similar before Dear committed.
