***OFFICIAL GAME THREAD: UF vs Corn Dogs***

[lagator]

Just a reminder...we were 23 point favorites with playoff implications on the line

Reminder, Mullen isn't the answer.

 

[Swamp Donkey]

Predictions:

Mullen will not be fired at the end of the season.

Grantham will be.

Marco will not be kicked off the team

He should be benched.

Bama will be ugly.

Trask will not win the Heisman.

Agreed

Except Grantham will not be. They will continue to blame ALL the players. And ALL the recruits who wont come to us. Besides there is no sense in paying a buyout. The inevitable will happen regardless

It is too bad for #11, but Mullin gon Mullin.

Reminder, Mullen isn't the answer.

He is if the question is "who is a placeholder"?

I'm sorry but there's honestly nothing left to do but laugh at this point, and I'm still laughing at the ref's call. "Unsportsmanlike conduct...for taking a player's shoe...and throwing it 20 yards down the field!"

Mullen might as well have thrown the red flag to contest the yardage, just to keep the comedy going. Say all you want about him being a quarterback whisperer but no championship caliber coach would ever hire and continuously employ a coordinator as bad as Grantham. Mullen is OC material. That's his ceiling.

He is a mediocre OC.

He needs someone to push him out of ball control football, which is his default.

609 yards of total offense and we lose. I can remember in the Muschamp era thinking " If he just had an OC that could get us 350 yds/game, we could play foe the SEC/NC."

Very deceiving though bc Mullinz went into Notre Dame mode in the red zone every time.

3 turnovers and several 3 and outs. 609 yards only tells part of the story. The offense did not have anywhere close to a great game.

For me, it boils down to...

• Too many bad decisions by CDM (not kicking FG on first drive and/or the play they called on 4th after electing to go for it, play selection on all those 2nd half 3-and-outs, and play selection on last series of 1H that KT fumbled - to name a few)
• Too many missed/bad throws by KT (let's be honest, he missed a few that counted that he should've made, and that Pick6 was ugly)
• Too much horrible blocking by OL (they certainly didn't help much tonight)
• Typical embarrassing display by the entire defensive unit (if you take out the 10 KT gave away, they still gave up 27, and that says nothing of 3rd down or redzone)
• Typical horrible defensive coaching/preparedness
• Bad luck/decisions (2nd INT, missed FG, shoe throw)
• Laziness and entitlement (1st half looked about like the level of interest we had back in the UGA or MO '17 days, it was embarrassing)

Worst of all for me was Mullen's hubris at that halftime questioning. He's a decent to good - not a great - coach (which he unfortunately proved tonight). But he sure acted like he was Saban or Spurrier the way he arrogantly replied to the questions insinuating he was doing everything right, and KT was the only problem out on the field, with no recognition at all that there may also be other issues (to say the least, maybe his own preparation and motivational techniques). That certainly left an unpleasant taste in my mouth.

Most of all this unfortunately just makes me more apathetic about ever having serious title hopes in the near future. We're not on the right track. Can you imagine a Spurrier/Urban team losing to an unranked opponent with a losing record at home with national title implications on the line? Dan is so far below either of them, and I fear way too stubborn and arrogant to ever seriously modify his logic to achieve better outcomes.

Fsu is laughing at us tonight

 

[MJMGator]

Sounds like I made the right decision going to bed at halftime.

Florida's Dan Mullen after tonight's loss on the CFP: "Probably the best thing to do would’ve been play less games. Because you seem to get rewarded this year for not playing."


NO YOU POS...YOU GET REWARDED FOR WINNING THE ONES YOU PLAY!

[NOLAGATOR]

@oxrageous So Kyle makes some stupid plays today and somehow cannot be brought up?

OL...OL...OL

 

[Spurffelbow833]

Just like the TAMU game. We get to watch LSU kick a game winning field goal as time expires.

Oh ye of little faith.

 

[Spurffelbow833]

Did you hear Elijah Moore is in the Guinness Book now? He held Marco Wilson's beer for more than a year.

 

[fischerwood]

We did it to ourselves.

YEP, YEP WE DID
