We had 50 yrd rushing before prevent D time and Franks was 13 for 30 at one point I believe...yeah...16 pts against UK is pure ****...but blame the defense as usual (which wasn't good but wasn't high school level)

Here’s a list of Gator wins when the defense gave up 300+ yards rushing:

1.

Can all the new guys win, maybe not. So lets give the PT to the younger players, EJ too and get them the reps they need. No reason to let upperclassmen play that suck.

I think Franks is somewhat better than last year, how could he not be? The problem with Franks is he can’t put a team on his back and carry them, Hell hes lucky he only had 1 int tonight. He’ll do a little better in this offense, but nothing special. Mullen needs to just bite the bullet and put Emory in there more and transition to him as the QB.
Emory is just as raw as Frank's was coming in. Maybe a little more. I think it would be a disaster for him. He's gonna a need a few years imo. This season is effed either way.

Well Mullen needs to figure out a way to run the damn ball. Don’t know if they need to try more wildcat, jet sweeps, or just feature Davis almost exclusively. Think Toney needs a package if they aren’t let Emory have one. Something has to be changed up.

Agreed. There was little to no scheming in this game and Mullen seems scared to run the ball. I guess he knows how bad his oline is.

He should be able to run wildcat zone read stuff.

Even if it only one series a half I would do it. See full.speed stuff is helpful to let the kids no how far they need to go. It isnt going to get any easier (schedule wise) than Kintucky.

The answer is simple: we run the Emory & Henry for the rest of 2018! Some of you young pups may need to Google it, but SOS is the worldwide expert in the E&H. He’d be the Yoda to DM’s Luke Skywalker (Vader)! Oops, spoiler for the young pups. Can’t help it. I love Star Trek!

Emory & Henry will get us thru the year and by the time the SEC defense catch up we’ll bust out our real offense in 2019! Case closed. Live long and prosper

Franks will never be even an average QB here...that's fact. He's had his chance and can't handle the mental part of the game. Play Emory, play the younger guys and prep for the future. This season is shot anyway.

Damn so we have another Mac....burn it down and start over now before 3 years of crap.....right?
Unfortunately, yes, but everyone knows that's not an option. Short of an act of god, we are stuck with Mullen for 3 years.

Did you actually watch Emory last week? No bueno.
He sucked, but only way he gets better is getting him in the game. Mullen only knows one style of offense and Franks isn't capable of running it (and Trask will be much worse). So to get the offense up to at least Mullenz Mediocrity we have to have a read option QB, and EJ is the only one on the roster.

I have no problem with that. But throwing Jones out there behind this oline and asking him to throw it 35 times isn't going be a good experience for him. The kid threw for like 1200 yards last year.

As bad as the D was they gave up 21pts, If we can't top 16pts with Frank's then WTH,give someone else a shot. Btw I know we don't see practice the coaches do, but we see games, and when the coach comes off at halftime and doesn't acknowledge what most of us saw the first half. I question what he sees at practice too.
