Our OL is bad, there's no question, but the same OL that allowed us the opportunity to score 32 points against Georgia couldn't get us one touchdown against Florida? Coaching played a major role in yesterday's loss.

You're forgetting that comparatively Georgia's strength is it's LB corps not it's front four. In contrast, Florida has stronger linemen AND their own version of Floyd. Also, we used the wildcat against Georgia to great effect and we tried to use it against UF only to have various self-inflicted penalties back us up pre-snap. And for those wondering why we use the wildcat.. put simply it works when you have an athlete who can run it. For us, Hurd FINALLY gets some extra blockers to run behind when we use the wildcat.

Worley was also off all game long. He came out flat and played flat. Unfortunately the offense and all the young guys follow his lead (when he's good they're good but when he's lackluster they're more lackluster too - before Peterman did anything to warrant it we saw them lose all faith when Peterman stepped on the field). IOW, the young offense, especially the line, is highly dependent on Worley being on and getting the ball away quickly. Worley is slightly above average on quick reads/short throws but he's not going to be perfect every time and especially not with that line giving him zero time to make a decision. That line not holding up effects every single aspect of the game, every decision Worley makes, and every play that is called.
