Losing sucks, and losing games because of your own mistakes sucks even more, but I'd rather lose like that than get outclassed. You demonstrated last night that you are as good as any team in America, even if the outcome was less than ideal. Now you see how the coaches and players react to the loss.
Kiffin needs to bag the long pass play for the rest of the year. Neither QB can make those passes without placing the ball at risk. That long pass play called with three minutes remaining was a horrible decision and killed what would have been the game winning drive. Ole Miss was reeling, and they were handed a reprieve.
Coker made a few mistakes in the rest of his play, but he also showed some serious leadership and deserves to get all of the first team snaps in practice. It should now be his job to lose.
IMO, you exposed Ole Miss last night. You provided the blueprint for beating them, and someone in your conference will get the job done. Win out and you are probably headed back to the SECCG, but you have to play the rest of the season without a safety net. Here's hoping that you get it done.
Roll Tide!!!
