OK--I'm not even gonna say it. One more play for this D to at least partly redeem itself...and SH*T!!! 1st and goal.

Well, we HAD 'em stopped...makin' a stand here--but how can we stop them from inches out now? Ok: Way I see it, we surrendered our shot at 4 more pts on offense, then escorted them to the redzone and in, both on 3rd-down plays we had WON, to pretty well hand them 7 'stead of 3 themselves. Here we go again: Too often this team keeps close the teams it is beating. At least we haven't looked like we're in a "giving" mood this week...Here we go: yup.

Did y'all see the RG move for LSU? NOW the announcer sees it on the replay, but I know they can't call that now...I don't even know if they really scored, either, but it IS in Death Valley, so...shoulda/woulda/coulda: WE put 'em there, so wtf.

Not getting a good vibe, but it is still early.

Had to know coming into this one that we'd need our smartest, as well as our best, game.
We're looking ok--but the dumb penalties (and the emotional stuff that always goes with it with our guys) could make the difference in a close one. Meanwhile, Jones is hurt, something with his knee?
What a dumb, obvious play! Now we're conceding on 3rd?!!! Now it's starting to go off--My friends, WE can feel it; It's times like these I start to wonder these days 'bout our Head Coach, where I DIDN'T before:
Can't he FEEL this one beginning to slip through our fingers, the doubts, fears and frustrations starting to show on the field, where our "team" breaks down more and more into separate guys, squads, the cracks widening?

Here we go...They are starting to try and break us at the center point-of-attack. Gotta toughen up, stop 'em NOW.

BLATANT hold on that long pass play before the fumble...Gator DL was around and almost past his blocker, who had his big mitt holding onto his arm, his own arm stretched out wide for all to see--but again, no flag. This is gonna be travesty for homer calls before it's done, you watch. But Gator ball...

Oh oh--our offense looks really choppy. I'd stick to over the middle and outs to Dunbar and Patton...and there's the sack. Is Tyler hurt? Slow getting up. We just don't look ready this week--and I know some of y'all thought Jones shouldn't be the #1 RB anyway, but whomever was in that role, together those two presented a dynamic challenge, well-rested throughout game when alternated, a great combo when both out there--either way part of what HAD been working until last week (and this one, apparently). OK: Where is Taylor?
(And now we've lost Jacobs on that TD play? That helmut we saw rolling away was his, and he got kicked in the head, for a concussion??? We just have not just "bad luck, but WEIRD bad luck!)

Need a big play somewhere.
HAD one--and did nothing with it. Not only didn't really try, didn't appear to have a "plan to try, in case such and such happens"...Yeah, I know all us fans think we could do better--but when it's TRUE, believe me, that truly concerns me!
Well, without that "break", one where the D "takes it to the house", we are in trouble here. Roberson makes another bad play on what should have been an easy stop. No discipline, poor technique, and selfish stupidity, which he has shown a LOT of this year.

I know we are not favored to win, but we look as undisciplined and sloppy as we did in 2011.

I'm afraid I've seen enough to say this:
Unless we can get to the break down less-than-a-TD, we will lose this one. Just not enough of ANYTHING on offense to get it done here, not against these guys (...and now Hargraves hurt? Hopefully just the wind knocked out, diving on the ball...Man, we can't LOSE anymore of these young ones just coming into their own--More than ever, it's this even wounded D that gives us ANY chance at victory in games like this one).
I don't believe it--They go zone and give up the big 3rd down. We're screwed...I may have to bow out for awhile here if/when they score--I just can't watch this parade of doom. Ultimately, this ones on the coaches...They were NOT prepared: Came in with a loser's mentality...

Yes. It's just depressing, a no-show on the part of the staff. I don't think this "maybe we should try this/maybe we can win it 3-to-nothing" offensive gameplan had any hope of doing anything but what we're seeing. The one hope was that they'd throw it all out and get creative at the half--and that MIGHT have worked were we less than a score behind. Yeah, both O and D squads have looked aimless, but they are reflections of their coaches, right?
See? Now everything is goin' south. Miles won't miss the obvious opportunity to lay it on us NOW, given the chance--and if we just play to run down the clock now, rather than SCORE SEVEN, then we deserve to lose!
(ENOUGH with that bogus screen! They are aware of it and KEYING on it every time!)

Shoot--just turn Murphy loose and let him and his boys draw it up in the dirt! More than y'all have got on the sidelines.
