So, observations so far.

D is legit. Better than anything we had during Muschamp.

O is worse. Somehow. No creativity. Offensive line routinely confused. No push. Little talent catching the ball.

Four wins is the ceiling. Beamer has a lot, and I do mean a lot, of work to do.

Yep.

Troy and Vandy.

Going for it on 4th instead of kicking the FG last night was a terrible decision and nobody will convince me otherwise.

We’ve lost 7 of 8 to Kentucky

Maybe our fan base will stop assuming they’re a W

Oh, no doubt. Stoops has put that program where we used to be. Gritty, disciplined, and able to beat damn near anyone they play. Not gonna lie, I'm jealous AF.

I concur.

There were other positives in the loss, but that wasn't one of them.

If the ball was caught, which it should have been, that would have convinced you otherwise.

They should be an automatic W but we hired a baseball coach to be AD so here we are.

Also, just to add, the FG would have been 45yds or so. Parker White is not the best kicker over 40, although he did make that 54yd that game. He's money 40 and under.

At the time I felt it was the right call. It the receiver, can't remember if it was Brooks or DK, would've actually had the mental presence to get to the first down marker and actually catch the ball, nobody would be questioning it today. The fact of the matter is we don't have good skill players. I missed the first quarter, but I remember at least 5 balls that were very catchable that were dropped and caused drives to end.

My biggest complaint is that outside of the first 2nd half drive, our play calling is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay to predictable.

It was Brooks. He can’t catch for shite. Routinely drops balls that hit him right in the hands.

Was shocked he was the one that made the circus catch against UGA. Don’t let that confuse you. He sucks arse.

Need to ship him back to Newberry or wherever the hell he came from

He threatened to quit if he didn't get the job. We should have let him walk instead of letting him destroy the Football program.

TAMU or Texas was courting him to poach him offering huge money. And he told Pastides give me the AD job or I'm going to Texas. Pastides and the BOT caved and the rest is history.

How the play went down doesn't matter.

Going for it was the wrong decision. You kick it, make it a 3 point game, put the Kentucky offense down on their own 25, and have our defense make another stand. He was treating 13 minutes left in the 4th quarter like it was 2 minutes left in the 4th quarter.

Maybe but i think some of us are so used to muschamp, that someone actually gambling to try to take the lead is refreshing.


the big mo play for me, is right after we scored the TD they fumbled it, we had our hands on it and didnt get it. they ended up getting 3, but with momentum if we could have gotten that fumble I think we go on to win

There's a lot we could say about the talent or lack thereof, but we are all seeing the “Can't fit square pegs into round holes" philosophy for what it really is: “We have no clue about our Offensive identity."
