Meh anyone that watched that game can see something is seriously wrong. Spavital is terrible for sure and he needs to go. Every play is horizontal and 2-3 plays every series are screens. Those sort of lose their effectiveness when you call them every play.

That being said, he *could* have been calling them because of the kyle allen situation. He's either injured in the shoulder, or he has matt schaub syndrome. In the second half in particular he was missing simple throws by a LONG way. I think he was hurt and they even worked on his shoulder some.

Because of a blowup between our backup QB and our OC, we didn't have a backup for this game ready so instead of taking out a struggling and almost certainly injured player, we left him in to go 0-22 and throw away any chance of winning the game.

Fwiw, I thought the defense played pretty well considering the lack of production from the offense and I was proud of them for not quitting when it would have been real easy to. The offensive coaches certainly quit on this team, maybe some of the players too. There are some things to fix right now, but it's not the defense.

So what exactly is Sumlin there to do then if he doesn't have the authority to take over the offense when it's not working? I thought that was his specialty?

Which is probably the real look into why shite is falling apart from inside at A&M right now.

Well, they might have a lot of fight but Ole Miss hasn't run the ball on anyone all year and they put up 230yds Saturday.

The bottom line is A&M is in for a rocky November and Sumlin might now make it out with his job. That's quite different from a few months ago.
