  1. It wouldn't put his job in jeopardy, but it would pretty clearly demonstrate that his reputation as a QB whisperer/offensive genius was always wildly overblown. Things would have to really go off the rails for him to take that hit to his ego.
  2. On the bright side, he might be better than Lagway.
  3. Every spot except LT and (to a lesser extent) RG should be an open competition the next 2 weeks. But given Flood's tendency to stick with known mediocrity, I doubt that's the case.
  4. A conference called the Big 12 exists... congrats?
  5. There are no helmet schools in the B12. That's what we're saying.
  6. Hopefully they'll try some new lineups the next 2 games and not just in garbage time. Wouldn't mind seeing Robertson at C and Hutson at LG. Or give Brooks some run at RT. What they trotted out against SJSU isn't going to be good enough.

    I doubt they go the G5 route again after SBB. Kiffin would probably be their top choice, but not sure he'd leave Ole Miss where they're happy going 9-3 every year. Maybe try to poach Drinkwitz from Mizzou.
  8. We have more talent, but it's very unlikely OU will be an easy out in Dallas this year. No reason to pretend otherwise.
  9. When Lockett made his first catch I thought "where the hell did that guy come from?" He jumped off the screen when he was in there.
  10. It's game 2. They have a lot to clean up, like everyone else in the country. Hopefully they will by UF.
  11. Very little, if anything, can be discerned from this game or the next 2. They were flat and sloppy against an inferior opponent. That's it.
  12. OSU didn't intend for us to ground/pound to the 1/2 yard line. A better play call there and Scipio's OL narrative collapses.
  13. Oline wasn't the problem.
  14. If we kicked a FG at the 1/2 yard line and lost 12-14, everyone here would want Sark fired. And they'd be right.
  15. You can play hypotheticals all you want. Get 1/2 yard and none of it matters.
  16. Your hypothetical when we're down 12-14.
  17. You're assuming we would've had the same opportunities if we kicked a FG. They wouldn't have been pinned in their own endzone, forcing them to go ultra conservative and giving us the ball right back at midfield. You're also assuming we make all of our FGs (last one would've been 60+ yards). The safer assumption is that we find a way to pick up half a yard.
  18. What makes you think we would convert a 2 pt conversion if we couldn't punch it in from 1/2 yard?
  19. 0-7 in the 3Q, ball at the 1 ft line. No coach in the country kicks a FG there.
  20. Somewhat agree. I think Arch will improve, and we'll win a lot of games. We should be able to ground/pound and lean on the defense against every team we play other than UGA and maybe UF and OU. Win 2 of those games and we're be right back in the SECGC. What happens from there is where I have concern; if the red zone/goal line issues don't get fixed (3rd year and still waiting), we will once again come up short.
  21. You don't kick a FG at the 1/2 yard line.
