Well, to my surprise I expected to return from the game and see on here that everyone would think we were great by looking at the score and the stat sheet. Well it appears many of you saw the same thing I saw. The offensive line is horrendous, that is why we can't run the ball for shyt until the defense is gassed. LDR was on his A$$ early and often b/c we were whiffing on D-linemen and LB's coming free. Our O-line is horrendous at communication, assiggnment football etc. Yes, Mizzou has a few good defensive players, but if you want to be an above average team, you have to be able to block a Mizzou team early in the game. And it appeared the game plan was to throw deep early and often and also to throw into double coverage a s much as possible. For the love of anything, how many times is LDR going to throw into double coverage in one game?
Now for Mac and his typical incompetence. We get 1st and goal on the 5 yd. line and what do we do? Instead of getting a good play called and everyone on the same page, he wants us to go super hurry up b/c he knows we can't just whip the other team straight up. Well that resulted in 1 of our 33 false start penalties we had in the game. As I have said since last year, we are the most mentally weak and fundamentally unsound team I watch on a weekly basis. And lastly once again Mac shows he can't manage the simplest things. We score in the late 3rd Q, to go up 26-7 or 19 points and the moron goes for 2. Forget the card. Being up 20 or 21 at that point is the same for this reason. Simple math says that you can't get to 20 points with 3 possessions without scoring 3 TD's. However you can get to 19 points in 3 possessions WITHOUT scoring 3 TD's. Way to early to chase that 1 point in that situation. simple math!!!! It does not matter that it probably was not going to matter. What matters is the process and you have to always coach like it is going to be a factor.
