Agree. This was not a bad play at all. Fourth down play got broken up and he tried to stop the clock with one second and a first down. He was really close. I thought he handled it as good as anyone could.

Yep, against Oklahoma the Tennessee line could not protect him. Tennessee fans were acting like they were just running out the clock against Oklahoma, but the truth was they had to resort to running the ball because offensively they gave up multiple strip sacks and could not protect him.
Tennessee was fortunate Oklahoma hadn't switched QBs already, as sad as that sounds considering the Oklahoma offense.
Alabama had similar issues against South Carolina. We did not do a good job protecting Milroe at all, I think it was #5 that was wrecking havoc constantly for USC. And it was also probably Milroe's worst game of the year as a result.
Contrast that to Wisconsin where he seemed to have tons of time in the pocket.

One bad block doesn’t negate your overall performance.

there have been plenty of of "bad blocks".......not just one. To your point, maybe it was also the backs. My point is it is not all Milroe.......
