I wasn't counting UF as a win going into the season but the got damn way we lost is mother fricking frustrating!! Shitty play calling, the Oline should be improving at this point and isn't, can't score on turnovers, and penalties are getting worse. I was optimistic but the crap we are doing is stuff that should be fixable, I feel like we are regressing.

Extremely frustrating to watch. Every fan should be fricking furious after that shite show. That should've been a double digit win.

I felt it at halftime and especially after that terrible pick right after we got a turnover. I usually don't get mad watching games, but I was pissed watching that shite knowing that team should've been slaughtering UF.

Completely fricking awful all the way around.

It has nothing to with play calling.
We don't have a full roster of SEC caliber players, yet.

We didn't stretch the field with a vertical passing game, because our OL can't get protection.
We can't run the ball because opposing defenses won't respect a deep passing game.
Therefore were one dementional with a short passing game.

It is a vicious circle.

It is what it is.

We should've talked one of those picks to the house.

Blaming the OL is appealing, but the fact is you can't look at last week's game and this week's game and not question the role of coaching. I just don't believe Florida's DL is THAT much better than Georgia's. Given the way we performed last week on the road offensively versus how we looked this week at home against a reeling team that did everything they could to give us the game, the blame falls squarely on the coaches' shoulders.

Good staffs augment their playcalling to hide their team's weaknesses. Bajakian, it seems, has his gameplan and is sticking to it come hell or high water. The staff coached scared or stupid or both. Our -11 yards in the redzone is unacceptable -- I don't care HOW bad the offensive line is.

But then, let's consider how bad the OL is and ask why, up 9-0 nearing the 4th quarter, our OC is STILL insisting that Worley drop back to pass. He's unprotected, he fumbles the ball, Florida recovers, and look what happens. A redzone turnover leads to a score, something we couldn't manage in spite of every opportunity. Florida couldn't move the ball. If we just run and punt up 9-0 we would have won.

We're probably never going to see a Florida team that bad roll into Neyland Stadium again. And we still couldn't get it done. I'm not giving up on Butch yet, but the offensive philosophy is a mess. That's a game you have to win.

Butch isn't Dooley, but yesterday was downright Dooley-esque in terms of the performance. It was that deflated feeling of knowing anything you did on offense was futile. The staff really screwed up.
