Why is everyone blaming the offense for this loss? We scored 28 points, yes we should have scored more and won but the defense and bad penalties lost this game period.

The team is losing OLinemen. That hurts. That hurts a lot. CDP is not helping tho. This is a running team. Run the damn ball and then hit them with the play action until they stop it.
He owned it. Good. Now prove you can coach. I can take a loss but this loss was unacceptable.

We scored 21 points in regulation to an fcs school who was 0-2

Actually, he did not. I thought he said that, but I re-watched the replay and he said the clock would start when the ball was ready.
Let's wait for GTBob to upload it to confirm - but I am 100% sure that the ref said when the ball was ready.
The conservative thing to do is to call timeout with 4 seconds left so your FG attempt leaves no time left for the other team in case you miss.

He took blame for the penalties ...nice...how about the horse sheet QB and offense ...how about not having them ready to play?

I said what the coach said. I had the game on mute and couldn’t hear.

Really? People bitched on this board for years if we scored 21 against a top 5 team running PJs spread option. Now 21 is enough to win. Lol

My issue with the offensive game plan.
Against USF Oliver leads the team on a 76 yard drive to put the team up 14-3 and end the half. Instead of letting Oliver build on this momentum we switch it over to Graham to start the 2nd half.
Today against Citadel Oliver leads a 67 yard drive to tie the game up at 21 including a good 29 yard pass. Comes out and returns the kick 52 yards and instead of continuing with the hot hand we go back to LJ who just had a shoulder injury.

At one point we had 34 plays to their 65. Offense can sustain drives and the defense is on the field all day you will give up points

Sorry...never said sheet was his fault...print the transcript and show me where he said he made a mistake...he did lots of explaining and complementing the citadel but only said the penalties were his fault...said zip about not having them ready...not putting the payers in position...getting the kickers ready...
A defense that allowed an average of 33 points per game to Towson and Elon held Tech to 24 points, just six in the first half.

He had a chance to sign 2 OL out of the 19 class. He chose not to
And there are no interior DL in the 20 class so far
He’s in over his head.

Gotta stay supportive, this rebuild wasn’t going to be easy. Love our guys, but turn on the television and I see visibly more talent at other Power 5 programs. It’s reality. We have a few players, but not enough. Next year we’ll have upgrades all over the field; transfers, recruits with actual impressive offer lists... our OC might be a joke, but he might look a h*** of a lot better with a qb that can throw it down the seam, hit a crosser in traffic, throw a back shoulder, stay in the pocket and go through a progression. I’m not giving up on all of our qbs, but we don’t have that right now and we don’t have an OL that can protect them or a lot of weapons to throw to yet. And yes, I realize we have better players than the Citadel, but this is the reality of being a bottom tier Power 5 program from a talent perspective. Remember our classes have been in the 40s for several years. It happens every week, teams with better players lose to teams with lesser talent for a variety of different reasons. We are one of those programs unfortunately, but we should’ve seen this coming, and it will slowly get better and the ceiling will be much higher than it has been for awhile. Regardless I’ll be at every home game from here on out. Go jackets!

Then you don't hear well. I just watched the replay and the Referee clearly says clock will start on the "ready to play".

You are correct.
