[QUOTE="yeti92, post: 969599, member: 133"] This was my biggest concern with hiring Key. All of his wins last season were pretty much 1 score games. Pitt dropped like 5 ints Sims threw right to them. Duke went to OT. VT was a 1 point win requiring a very late 4th Quarter TD, and UNC was a 4pt win. He also had the inexplicable loss to a very bad UVA, and got blown out by Miami, FSU, and 2nd half UGA. So far this season, we have had 4th quarter meltdowns 3 times, had an inexplicable loss to BG, and got a lot of luck to squeak out a win over Miami. Wake Forest definitely appears to be an outlier in all this, but we need more games like that if we are going to return to respectability. Right now it feels like we have to play really well on both sides of the ball, and have our opponent make some major mistakes to have a chance to eek out a win, we have no ability to just go out and dominate an opponent, even when they play poorly. Unfortunately CGC set the bar so low that just about any other coach could trip over it. But I look back on 2018 and prior seasons, and while yes some games were close contests, we also regularly had games that were not. 63-17 over BG, 66-31 over Louisville, 49-28 over VT. In 2017, 35-17 over Pitt, 33-7 over UNC, 38-24 over Wake. In 2016, 38-7 over Vandy, 31-17 over UVA, 33-18 over Kentucky. [/QUOTE]
