But that’s the problem with stats. This offense flat out doesn’t pass the eye test. They score in the red zone and look ok on the stat sheet, but when you watch there’s just something off. A lot of it seems that as the season has progressed the defenses have just cheated up more and more since...

I’m not sure it’s fair to put it all on record alone. Strange crap happens in football that can make an 8-4 team 7-5. But for me it’s more like we look like we know what we’re doing and look like we should win games. We simply haven’t passed that test for much of this season. In fact, after week...

The Syracuse and Louisville losses still happened. This team’s best win right now is over 6-2 Duke, who is very likely to lose two more to close the season. Barring a big win against Miami or uGA it’s a very disappointing season. Simply beating a struggling NC State team whose QB just retired...

I don’t care about what the talent was 5 years ago. I’m simply saying that another staff would have won that game with those same guys. That’s problematic. What I see is an inability to capitalize on a team returning the bulk of its offensive production. And yeah, there are injuries, but they...

I’m not so sure about Miami. VT basically beat them. There’s no reason we couldn’t do the same if King is healthy. But with our backups we are just plain BAD on offense.

Please stop with the offense excuses. Paul Johnson and his “high school offense” would have put up 30+ on that defense. We played very poorly on offense today no matter where you set the bar. Just call it like it is and say we played like **** on that side of the ball - I’d be willing to bet the...

I mean I hear that argument a lot, but then someone ALWAYS steps in for us a year later and we seem to scheme to their strengths. It seems like we don’t know what the backups do well right now.

I want them to be better than me. I want them to come up with something better than just, “well, **** it. Run Jamal where everyone expects us to run him.” Do we literally have no backup players that get reps in our offense? Are we so fragile that if these guys go down we are a 3-9 team? Our...

Dude, not the time. Take a look at all his games and reassess. I love the kid’s heart, but he’s likely started his last game for Georgia Tech.

Oh, another thing. We called a TO on an extra point with roughly 2 min to go in the half for a fools hope that a QB dropped a TD pass. That’s how much confidence the staff had in our offenses ability to score in a 2 min scenario.

Ok. But then why do we run that play on 3rd and 3 when we know they can’t execute it. Staff should know these things. Just like setting the kicker up for yet another 50 yarder from the right hash - yeah, he made it but Jesus why would you do that in that situation.

I hate to do this, but if CPJ had these players with on O with a D performance like that we win by 2-3 scores. That’s not an elite defense. It’s good, but nowhere near elite. We made them look like the 85 Bears. They didn’t do anything all that special. No crazy pressure. No disguised coverage...

I don’t think it’s fair to blame the OL. They played Ok. QB (and honestly WR) play was bad today.

More I think of it. Straight up Chan Gailey offensive performance. No confidence ina my one to execute anything. Just a consistent play for a chance to win late on one drive. Weak strategy, weak execution. If we don’t show some promise soon on O I’m worried we are years away from being an 8-9...

Defense stepped up. Offense relishes entirely on King to be productive. Faulkner somewhat exposed for inability to scheme around backups. Frustrating to be honest.

I got suspend from school once. My punishment was to decorate the Christmas tree. Kind of tells you how serious it was. Not sure what’s going on, but suspending a coach seems strange. It’s a professional environment. If the guy isn’t up to snuff then just let him go, IMO. Putting an adult in...

Yeah sure. And maybe they turn the ball over by being more aggressive. The point is that we let them play conservative by making mistakes.

I agree with Cuse and ND, but not Louisville. I actually felt like we outplayed them in just about every way but a handful of plays where we screwed up royally.

We easily could have been +6 They easily could have been -7 That gets us to 19-24. Still lose. But it’s a very close game at that point and you never know what happens. If we play clean we can be in most games. We need to get back to the way we were at the end of last season.

I would hope our staff already did this leading into last week. If not then they did a bad job of anticipating where we were going to struggle. My biggest concern going into the game was our inability to get break away runs out of the QB position, and I think that was the problem once we got...
