This weekend would have been a bust.

Let's talk about the USC game.
I was impressed with Shaw, he kept his head in it the whole time, came back form 17-3 and managed the game really well. His sole error was that fumble. Spurrier yelled at him last year when he would slide, and so he tried to keep it trucking and fumbled.
Altogether, he played well enough for us to win.

Mike Davis is a beast, he had more yards and avg'd higher per carry than Gurley. He's awesome.

The receivers did well for the chances they had.

The DL had 8 1/2 TFL's and 3 Sacks, they outperformed UGA's DL, but they didn't perform up to the national and our own expectations.

Deke and Botkin have some fire, more power to them, but keep it off tv.

Now let's talk about the bullshite.

The LB's didn't play well at all, and neither did the DB's.

Playing Vic at PR/KR last week was a HUGE mistake in judgement. If he was on limited snaps this week b/c of health and not some violation bullshite, this was a big reason Murray passed for 300.

4th and goal on the 1 1/2, we are averaging over 5 yards a carry and our OL outweighs their DL by almost 50 lbs....and Spurrier calls a fricking sweep, are you serious?!?!

The sun is going down, it's a crucial 3rd down, (not just one of the announcers saying it every 3rd down like they did), and we throw the ball to a receiver looking into the sun. That's a dumb play. 2/3's of the field was shaded, and we do that twice...once to Byrd and once to Wilds.

We still scored, but Busa should've caught that ball, it hit him in the chest.

Clowney was sick last week, alright, this week, someone stepped on his foot, ok...when are the coaches going to say to him, "if you can't go full-go, then tell us and we'll sit you." Darius English has actually been doing really well.

We're still in the race for the east. UGA doesn't have even a good defense and someone will be able to stop Gurley, most likely UF and LSU. We just have to worry about USC and fix what we're not doing right on defense.

Now on to the Panthers.

The offense sucks, I miss Jake Delhomme. Cam isn't a great Pro QB, and it doesn't help that he has shite for receivers (besides Smith.) The DT's we drafted are awesome. In the next draft we need to get the best WR's we can and 1 great OT. We'll probably have one of the first 5 picks next year, and I hope we trade our 2015 1st pick to get two next year, grab the best WR and OT available.

As far as FFB, luckily I had Peyton Manning and my other players did well, or this weekend would've been garbage. I should win by 50 points, and I wanted this win, b/c it's against the guy who knocked me out of the Championship last year. I have the Seahawks defense, so this was bittersweet today.

ETA, damn, that was too long

Is it okay for me to question the greatness of Lorenzo Ward after last night? Sure he's done well in his time here but this was by far the weakest D he's ever had to work with and I feel like with all that NFL attrition in the off season he's exposed. I can give examples and i'm not trying to pick a fight or say off with his head.

It was the worst defensive performance in SC history since the Holtz era.

Still wasn't as bad as the SECCG. Gave up more yards and points in that one than we did on Saturday.

I think our issues on D will be resolved. They'll simplify things and allow the defenders to go play because they have the talent. But if they're out of position talent means jack shite and thats what we saw against UGA
