We are more talented than almost everyone we play. We play a conservative style that leaves little margin for error. When we make an error, that margin gets even smaller.

Now the bad:

The post game press conference showed a coach who is gonna double down on this. He is gonna focus on eliminating mistakes (that’s what coaches do) not creating more room for error.

Let’s hope he can create his perfect team that doesn’t make mistakes, because there is little room for error when you are so conservative.

Kirby said all the right thing but he still has this stubborn: “We’re bigger than you so we’re gonna push you around” attitude. Someone better inform bowl cut that 10 in the box is greater than 5. Teams going forward, even UK to an extent, are going to press that until we can prove we can execute our downfield passing game. I have no doubt, ZERO, that this loss will open these guys eyes. It was just a matter of time slow start caused a loss. It was better that it’s still early enough to recover and it wasn’t against a good team. Hopefully, Jake and company will use this as motivation and punish the rest of the teams on the schedule.

Does anyone expect anything to really change? Coley will come out and we will play a Tennessee like game with Kentucky and Kirby and Coley will think all is well until we get beat by a Missouri or Florida and we will all be back talking about this again. We have the 6th ranked offense in the nation with the 61st ranked scoring offense.

opposing team's d-line occupies the dawg o-line and the backers/safeties fill the gaps..and we run right into it over and over again in hopes of breaking something..

without a fullback this is hard to pull off..

AND when we try to run outside we run sideline to sideline and this has not worked yet..and won't in the future..

this isn't "conservative" this is stubborn and stupid.

run the effing QB a few times..maybe a toss sweep or two..you know, stuff that workeed in the past.

Just watched every offensive play in the first half.

Coaches could vary the run game a bit, but the missteps we're mostly bad throws and bad choices from Jake. He didn't make a lot, but the ones he made killed drivers or resulted in turnovers.

Also Simmons didn't play well. Bad routes, no separation. Not a difference maker.
