Seriously, what's wrong with our second half offense?

First, kudos to the whole team and where we are right now. Probably couldn't have expected more.
However, I've got questions about the offense and lack of second half production.
I don't think it's a tightening up and try to run the clock out mentality.
If you look at our SEC games, we've scored more in the first half in every one (except Florida, which gave up turnovers).
What adjustments are made to us they we cannot overcome?
If we get the chance to play FSU and the way they play in the second half, we'd better be up by 35 at intermission.
TIA for your insight.

I think that Yeldon being gimpy is really holding us back. Yeldon has still payed wonderfully but he is still not near 100 percent.

We call plays to not lose the game instead of continuing to try to win the game.
It's like going to a Prevent defense on offense.
It's infuriating.

I have no clue. Execution just staggers until, we're forced to be desperate then Blake saves us.
Happened against Rocky Top, LSU and now Moo State.
I know one thing which would help greatly. If those receivers and that TE would catch more consistently. They killed two drives with drops in the 3rd quarter.

It's vanilla play calling when we get a lead or aren't playing from behind. That's the problem.
Also don't worry about FSU. Name a good defense they've played all year. I'll wait here

problem with FSU is just like AU last year. Teams like that just figure out ways to win, and get lucky when they need to.
There's no reasonable explanation for FSU being undefeated this year. And yet they are.
We may be a ton more talented than FSU, but if we have shitey 3rd qtrs. and 2nd halves against a team like that, great defense won't be enough to save us I'm afraid.

I don't know what we discuss at halftime because whatever it is doesn't seem to be working. We have got to find a way to get out of our second half funks because it will come back to bite us.
On Saturday, a lot of it was poor execution, bad playcalling, and good defense by MSU. I also think we were running out of gas from the LSU game.
One thing that would help would be if our running game would return.

It's been a lack of execution.
This team is a roller coaster.
