I just watched Kirby's presser and all he did was reiterate how "efficient" we were on offense even though we only scored 17 fricking points all game.

It appears by his words that he blames the turnovers for the loss and doesn't think our offensive game plan was an issue. He also dodged a question about how he would rate Coley's year so far as OC.

Not sure how I feel about this. IS this coach speak or does he truly believe that we are playing offense just fine?

While I like these long drives where we run down the defense, when it doesn't work, there is no fricking plan B it appears as it failed Saturday and we had no response.

you're probably gonna lose if you turn it over 4 times and one is a pick 6. defense only let up 10 points in regulation.

there's a pretty good chance we don't turn it over 4 times all year and win out to the sec championship.

basically, there is a decent chance he's right. it's frustrating as all hell, but possibly true.

From his perspective it did work. We had 500 yards of offense and Fromm had 300 of passing. In this game though...we methodically chewed clock and moved the ball down the field followed by a turnover, or loss on downs (4th and 6?) or missed FG. We painted ourselves into a corner.

We only had 1 punt in the first half and 2 in the second half. That shite is crazy.

500 yds of offense - over 100 from Swift and 300 from from - only punt 3 times - 36 min TOP.....and lose the game. How is that even possible?

No room for error with the way we play. Too conservative and too close other team always a mistake on our part or big play on theirs from being back in the game

i mean that's not what he said at all..he said based on their metrics the running game met all the markers for being "effecient", but he said the lack of explosive plays all year has been an issue. said we've been a methodical drive team all year, vs a more score quick with explosive plays. his big thing was the 4 vs 0 turnover margin. which is hard to overcome.

he was pretty candid with all the questions...except one. he was asked about how he felt Coley is doing, and if he had anything to do with offensive gameplanning. dodge it by saying he was focused on Kentucky.
