Asking the offense to score everytime they got the ball
Not even what I implied. I'd have to try to look it up, but I don't think the Liberty first half is the only entire half of football where our offense was pretty much shite. I think everyone knows this.

We moved the ball fine.
When we didn't stall out. According to ArkansasRazorbacks.com Fletcher punted 32 times this year, Bauer punted 23 times. That's 4.58 punts per game over a 12 game schedule. Throw in the TOD we've had this year, and you have to be in the 5-6 times per game that the offense just crapped out. Then you figure how much this would be skewed by the games we won vs lost and the SEC schedule. It gets to be an ugly picture on offense.

I would argue that Arkansas has gained more from the portal than it has lost when it comes to actual production on the field.

Haselwood doesn't get much appreciation around here, but he was pretty clutch at times too.

Haselwood definitely wasn't the 5 star stud he was billed to be, but you're right, he was at least productive.

Landers was the better get.

Fully agree.

He got injured and wasn't the same but just didn't have that explosive speed.

Just looked it up:
Texas A&M, 2nd half scored 7.
Alabama, 1st half scored 7.
Mississippi State, 2nd half scored 7.
Liberty, 1st half scored 3.
LSU, 1st half scored 3, 2nd half scored 7.
Ole Miss, 2nd half scored 7.
Missouri, 2nd half scored 6.

The best WR on the team was a journeyman from Georgia, Toledo and here who said couldn't catch but is more productive than the rest.

I wouldn't mind using the portal and get players that are from the FCS. Players like Ridgeway were a load up the middle and the defensive line suffered from his absence.
Give me an FCS all American over a former supposed 5 star that is washed up and low energy.

Tbh can’t say I recognize any of our players that have hit the transfer portal so far
Besides Bauer, Hornsby, Slusher, James Jointer, & Warren Thompson

quote:and again, how many of those games did we have a chance to score but couldn’t because of short yardage and goal to go situations???! That’s the whole point man. We weren’t scoring even after w e moved the ball. And we need to throw the Liberty game out because we already know what happened. We played a guy at qb who was hurt and didn’t practice all week. Is that on the coaching staff? Absolutely! But it’s not on the play calling. We already know scoring was the problem so idk why you’d just post the points we scored in a half. We agree the scoring was bad for the offense, and I’m saying most of that can be contributed to the offensive line

Hornsby, Slusher
These are the only two that really hurt. Hornsby wouldn't if we had any QB depth, and Slusher pretty much sealed his own fate after getting arrested unfortunately. I'm not really worried about next season, more so the depth for the bowl game, but it's a who gives a frick game anyways at this point

I already established that we averaged punting almost 5 times per game, undoubtedly many more per game in every game we lost (and probably some we won) so those weren’t goal line situations. At least 50% of the field goals weren’t failed goal line situations.
I don’t know why it is so hard for some of you to admit that our offense was the picture of inconsistency. It didn’t improve all season.

I'm of the opinion that some of us don't appreciate what we have. I'm also of the opinion that many on this board seem oddly averse to putting responsibility for failure on the people that are actually on the field playing and making the mistakes.

Agreed, Briles had a few herp Da derp moments for sure. But my friends, that Oline was horrible several times this season, especially when Pittman said, "I've got the best Oline coach" unbelievable.
I am looking for the next shoe to drop in coaches, I hope it isn't Briles....

The offensive line lacks athletic ability and one of the worst pass blocking offenses in the SEC. Stromberg only starter that is worthy of the NFL. The rest are average and struggle against quicker defensive linemen in passing situations.
The younger players behind them will be better.

Imagine how bad they would be without SEC level coaching. I believe Sam will bring in quality olinemen but he has to make due with what’s available. It goes for the entire team as well.
