We scored 35 points against Vandy with only 18 minutes of possession.
The offense wasn't the problem in that game.
The flow of the game, the way the offense operated, the turnovers at the absolute most CRITICAL times…how every time we got the ball back when it was a ONE SCORE game we COULD NOT take the lead…
…the offense was definitely PART of the problem and that includes LANK and his two turnovers and inability to lead a scoring drive when it was a ONE score game.
Again…
*Before the season*
“We know our defense is incredibly thin. Our offense will have to carry usâ€Â
I even remember one well-known poster on here proudly proclaiming how “vastly improved†Milroe was…
and I seen all these issues well before the Tennessee game and got absolutely hammered on here..
I was correct in my assessment, and it’s the same consistent message I have had all year. This defense is actually good enough to win games.
You have to not only score points in this day and age, but be efficient in the way you operate.
Don’t turn the ball over 2 or 3 times a game, go 3 and out half the possessions, but hit a few big plays and then proclaim “Milroe is VASTLY IMPROVED and the offense is NOT THE PROBLEM!
Yes it is. And it has been all year long.
