Playing for OT means throwing it on first, then hurrying up to call a play to get a first down? You're right about Haynes making an unexpected play, but the call was to get a first which would stop the clock and then probably take a shot.
I hear you, but it definitely feels different. This team is fragile and is coming off its best two wins against two teams that will either squeak into a bowl game or miss the post season. The way the staff is calling games is puzzling. Sure, maybe the offensive game plan is hindered by a King injury - but we opened the game playing the best defense I’ve seen in years and then took our foot off the gas and went super conservative for the majority of the second half. They’re making the mistakes countless make that lead to losses in toss up games or even games you should easily win. Fear of losing creates losses. They need to learn how to step on the opponents throat and leave no doubt who should win games.
Well then, that’s bad on CBK. Glad his OL didn’t get the memo. They blew a big hole in that DL. Maybe CBK will learn from this. Good on the Jackets for not quitting!!!
Fragile? They played a mistake filled game and yet fought through to a gutsy win. That’s not fragile in my book, but whatever.
Watch it again. We throw the ball and then half assed our way to the LOS before running a play. We were deep in our own territory running the ball on 2nd and 3 with 16 seconds left in the game. That’s playing for OT dude. The entire plan was to see if Haynes could just bust a run. If not we try to win in OT.
Why are you making the choice to give the fellowship of the miserable more of your attention than the people who are more appreciative of the good than down on the bad? Scroll past their posts or even hit ignore. Don’t give them the power to ruin your enjoyment of GT sports.
This. College football games are like waves in a swimming pool. Everything looks all smooth and ordered during adult swim, and then some kid does a cannonball off the high dive and 63 kids dive into the pool when the whistle blows and it’s chaos. And then in an hour it’s adult swim again and you think everything is smooth and ordered.
Probably so, but CPJ was taking incoming fire until the Clemhole win. Then we turned around and beat UGAg.
If they were playing for OT then they kneel the ball after the kick. As someone already say, Key stated that they wanted to get the ball into range for a game winning kick.
Oh come on that’s not what he meant
. You know they don’t call plays in a vacuum. They call them, especially in end of game situations, in ways that they feel set the defense up. It wasn’t that they were calling a running play to just get a few yards. They called a play they thought would help us get into scoring position and it worked even better than they hoped 
The OL on that play is all over the second level sealing off the running lane. They did a fabulous job and JH blew through the hole and took it to the house. Game!
It truly was a thing of beauty!!!
I agree with this. It may be the best blocked play all game for our OL.Oh come on that’s not what he meant
