Things That Jumped Out At Me

I have to say this is one of the ugliest wins Ive seen. It was God awful for our offense and I know Vandy has a great defense.....but.
We have stopped throwing to TEs and Jake McGee...WTF? We throw one damn pass to Goolsby...thats it. # 83 McGee has the best hands on the team...so why arent we using him since Treon took over?
Is he "color blind"...I will let you mull that and I dont like to see our punter nail a 50+ punt to pin Vandy back and only white players came up to him and slapped him on the back...when he came to the sidelines..whats going on?
I hate to broach this subject but damn. Like to know what you guys think.
Treon has GOT to be taught the nuances of being a QB. He never ever sits in the pocket...even when he has time, he just looks for 1 second and then his feet are moving and he will try to throw on the run or try to run and yesterday he was usually hit for loss or min gain. Watch the replays. He is short and that hinders him some...but he has to learn to wait to scan the field and then run if he has to . He is just ready to dart as soon as he gets the snap. Thats not our offense.
I saw the replay of Ralph Webbs 74 TD run and I will explain what happened...very simple...we had put scrubs in for some starters...McMillian # 13 was the biggest culprit and he has been blocked out of run plays before. We also had Duke Dawson and one of two other true frosh on the field....Vandy had the ball at their 26 and our DC made the mistake of thing it was ok to sub players....well Vandy took McMillian 6 yards out of the play and you could run 2 Mack trucks through the hole. Take away that blunder and VU did nothing all day. God help us if Davis leaves us.
I feel like Ive been in 12 round heavyweight fight....just stunned that our OL played soooo horrible and VUs DL look like an NFL defensive unit against them. We didnt start Sharpe and we inserted Fred Johnson at the ROT position and he is a monster..but a true frosh with a lot of learning to do...he literally blocks out the sun with his frame. McCallister had a great game and may get the offer he wants on the next level....but he is only 240 and close to 6'7"...he needs 20 lbs at least. This game certainly caught the eye of some scouts though.
I dont think we can expect to beat USC at Columbia...they are playing much much tougher with the new interim HC. I expect them to empty both barrels at us and our team will be tough to inspire....lets see how McElwain can motivate them. It would be a real letdown to lose a game now after all we have done.

Only thing I can think of is our coaches took Vandy lately and tried getting the backups early/meaningful snaps. I.e.: Scarlett getting the start and early carries (which I don't necessarily mind, btw).

The long Webb run was also helped by a dang zebra getting in the way of Neal.
I have no idea what kind of gameplan we have week to week with Treon. You are right he is too quick to leave the pocket. Can someone tell him on a WR screen to throw it to his chest not his feet.
Is anyone else tired of seeing the dang QB rollouts with pressure as soon as the QB turns his head downfield. Something in the blocking scheme is not working on that play.
IMO quick passes and TE involvement is the only way we move the ball in the air. Treon will get lucky and connect on a deep pass every now and then but we need first downs.
I think the players know that a playoff birth is still possible so they will show up to USC. I'm going so they better.
We had 4 turnovers on their side of the field and IMO 2 blown calls by the ref one of which was a TD. So if those things don't happen we may be playing a different instrument right now.
As far as only the white players giving props to the punter. I didn't really notice and I hope that wouldn't be a problem. But with the things going on at Missouri who knows.

Harris can't hit a pass over the middle and it's killing the TE production. We need to get him some high heeled cleats so he can see.
