He pretty much blamed the GSU loss squarely on the offense.
He basically said an option team is going to get some points no matter who they play (see Alabama 2011 and 2012 UGA). They have over 300 yards rushing in both games.
The difference was, those teams both scored over 40 against GSU.
He basically said the offense failed to score points, it put the defense in bad situations, and it cost them the game. He threw his offensive staff under the bus HARD after that game.
Also, when asked about the talent discrepancy, he said this:
» On the option negating talent: “That’s what the option does – takes talent out of the game. You don’t have to block Dante Fowler now; you option off Dante Fowler so you don’t have to account him anymore in blocking. That’s why the service academies run it. That’s why they run it. That’s why a lot of these schools run it because it takes talent out of the equation. … Talent is negated in that situation. It doesn’t really matter because you don’t’ have to block a lot of the guys. … When you play teams like that, you don’t have to block certain guys, you know? That’s just what that offense does to you. It’s all about responsibility, assignment, and then you got to defeat a block in some situations. … That’s why those teams run that. That’s what it is.”
