recognize that we chose to kill the clock in the rain rather than try to run up the score in the rain


Other than your imagination what are you basing this on?

21 points vs the Ducks in the second half
24 points against UofSC
28 points against Auburn
27 points vs Vandy
14 vs Florida
3 vs Tennessee
28 vs Ms St
7 vs Kentucky
27 vs GaTech
15 vs LSU

Because it kinda looks like when Kirby could run the score up a bit in the second half Kirby did so.
So, I’m curious, what makes you feel Kirby just stopped trying in the second half? If rain/injuries why didn’t they pull Bennett and Bowers with such an insurmountable lead?

Why do you do this to yourself?

UGA ran the ball 20 times in the 2nd half and threw the ball 4 times.

We burned 14:55 off the clock plus your last 2 timeouts.

I don't understand you.

We work a lot of depth.
When we don't have our best field general, we don't get put ourselves in position to be successful. And the depth doesn't get the extra reps.
We will often leave in 2 or 3 starters while rotating everyone else to help make sure everyone is lined up and executing properly.

In the past, we would throw a new everything out there and then wonder why it appeared to look like chaos.

Bennett was on pace for 500 yards and 6 tds, but Heisman wasn’t the goal.

Do you not have access to the play by play?

Uga Finished the final 21 minutes of game with 16 runs and 1 pass.

You don’t know what to look for.

Here are Stetsons 4th Q passing attempts in 10 of the 2022 games:

#SC: 0
Samford: 0
#Oregon: 0
Vandy: 0
UK: 0
#LSU: 0
#TCU: 0
#UT: 1
Ga tech 1
Miss st 2

Imagine if we kept on passing in these games. Stetson would have won the heisman.

I haven’t paid close attention, but I’ve heard we’ve done a good bit of “film work” and we are “sharing the load” as a team.

Man needs hope. What hope is there if Kirby actually pulled off the gas pedal?

All because he doesn’t understand the concepts of “killing clock” and “garbage time”.

so preposterous

The fumble, the short field with the onside kick. And UGA was only able to kick FGs after a minute into the second quarter. So are you planting the flag at UGA went into prevent offensive with 14 minutes to go in the second quarter and just shut it down? Because that level of delusion would be a bit much even for you.

When you invent a term such as “prevent offense”, is that code for “killing clock” ?
