May not be a pretty game. But at least my view of the game is nice. RTR hope for us to finish this game in the 2nd half.

I love that view, but I think you need a bigger TV!

We ran the ball 15 times for 100 yards and went up 17-0 in the first 18:30 of game time.

Then we called the stupid trick play and ran it 3 times for -2 yards over the last 11:30 and had 2 three and outs.

Baffling

The last 2 offensive series were pure crap. Have let Auburn grab the momentum. Even the defense is not playing as intense. Had a chance to pull out the dagger, but got cute and stupid with the playcalling.

Yeah but you can’t look like a genius if you just roll with what’s working

Beautiful!

Let's finish this

Man we are fortunate to hold them to those FG attempts.

Defense is hanging in there!!

Somebody wake up Grubb.

Auburn is bringing max pressure on passing downs and we can't pick it up

That’s become the norm for Grubb. Either he can’t stomach too much success or he’s obsessed with proving he’s the smartest guy on the sideline.

Haha. True. But we don’t watch much tv.

We do this all the time. Get a chance to kill shot and run a series of crap plays. This is why DeBoers teams dont blowout anyone.

 

[colbysullivan]

So aggravated with the playcalling on that one drive. We had an opportunity to really blow this game open. Gotta run some dumb gimmick play.

ONE drive?

Bingo

Not defending Grubb, but every OC ever has fallen prey to this - they always think they can outsmart everyone else and get goofy instead of running the ball down their throat (or passing, whatever) until the other team stops it.

There must be a trait in OCs that makes them think they're more clever than they really are. They ALL do this to one degree or another...

I find myself facing difficulty rooting for the Barns's kicker to miss a kick...

I know. Kid’s been through a rough time.

Grub needs to quit out-guessing himself

BTW, ll the excitement around Kiffin staying/going is only helping him with recruits. Young people like excitement.

Are we doing a different thread for second half?
