Missed opportunities/mistakes

First pass of the game to Leftwich. If he stays in bounds that's a TD.

We saw in this game how good Lock can be if given even a little protection in the pocket.

Getting the running game going has to be priority 1 the rest of the season.

We definitely missed some opportunities and had some mistakes. In football there will be opportunities and mistakes made by both teams, our mistakes were bigger and we didn't take advantage of our big opportunities.

I was a big Lock proponent, so I don't mind the mistakes and growing pains. When you have talent and recognize this would be a 6-9 win regular season why not let the youth get the in game experience.

Now with that being said I am totally upset at our coaching staff. We may not win every game but we should at least have our players in a position to win. We were not outschemed or outmatched to the extent we should have been due to the overall talent disparity, we just did not put our players in proper positions to win.

Florida was in a Dime package most of the game, 6 DB's on the field. Florida has shown problems with tackling bigger backs in space on film. Both against Horton at Kentucky and Hurd at Florida. Hansborough is our guy, I understand that and for some reason Ish is our number 2(I still have no idea why) but they should have taken advantage of what was put on film. At the very least it wears down a defense when you run those bodies.

We pay our coach a top 20 salary for a reason and I feel we let him slide on certain aspects of his duties because he revived our program on a daily basis. Coaching at this level includes recruiting and understanding the collegiate landscape as a whole. You can't be this bad on offense at a power 5 program with championship aspirations when you run a true spread, you just can't. It's to many high schools with QB's, RB's, WR's, and OL to play in our system. If you don't have the aforementioned pieces then you as a coach must adapt but the game is already offensive centric all the pressure is on the defense, which makes what we do on that side of the ball that much more impressive.

You can't hold your opponent to 14 offensive points and not expect a win in 2015. You just can't!

We must be talking about different plays. The one I'm referring to Wingo ran a post route, turned the safety around and was open by a good 10 yards. It was easy pitch and catch for a TD. Either he ran the wrong route or Lock threw the wrong route. Not sure which. From Wingo's reaction he seemed to think it was on Lock. IDK.

Two personal foul penalties on their two TD drives. One being the incredibly boneheaded late hit by Howard.

I had made a mention somewhere along the line that they have to cut this shite out. I can't even imagine their numbers if they'd stop with the stupid shite. Penton damn near gets flagged with every pass break up for taunting. I see the refs go tell him to cut the crap every time. C'mon man. You're good but it was just a pass break up.

I remember one post route he kind of got the safety turned alittle but he wasn't open by 10 yards. Might have been before they got to the endzone, but by that time the safety recovered and was in his back pocket.
The one I am thinking about Lock over threw by about 5 yards also.

If I cared enough Id take screenshots of the game film, but I really don't. He was WIDE open. A safety who gets turned around is not going to gain any ground on a sprinting Wingo.

Not calling you a liar, I was just discussing. You know, like grown ups do. But I'm not going to sit here and play word games with a smartass prick like you. Here I thought we could actually have a normal discussion. frick that.

Damn man. Calm the frick down. That was me leaving it be. I just disagree with you. Goodness...
