What did you think of the offensive play calling in the Tennessee game? Seems like they kept trying to run Demps and Rainey up the middle. And guys like Cooper and Hernandez were hardly involved.
People already bashing Florida play calling.... Ahhh NOW it's football season!
Well, for what it's worth, for the last two weeks i have had to sit and watch the Bulldogs (my g/f is a UGA grad) sling the ball up and down the field with South Carolina and last weekend Arkansas, putting up huge points. I just hope we can contain Georgia and South Carolina to some degree. I know our d is better, but with few choices for receivers, we need to be able to put points up against SEC teams... more than the 23 Saturday. Feed those boys some Thera-Flu, and lets get busy!
What really gets me is that regardless of the fact that our WR corps has been depleted by injuries and both Jeff Demps and Aaron Hernandez played with the flu, some fans are still throwing Steve Addazio under the bus like they did to Dan Mullen last year after the Ole Miss loss - was it Addazio's fault that Tebow fumbled in the 3rd quarter?
Yep - nothing like using the proverbial scapegoat.
Why can't we just be satisfied with the fact that we WON the freaking game, for crying out loud? Just because it wasn't a "pretty" win and/or we didn't go RUTS on UcheaT, there's all this griping. Seems no matter what this team does that's positive, somebody has an issue of one kind or another.
As the late Gertrude Stein once said, "A rose is a rose is a rose". Gator fans need to substitute the word "rose" for WIN and be grateful for the fact that we're still 3-0 in a year when other top teams are being upset right off the bat. That, and still ranked #1 in the polls.
yeah but this is the NCAA not NFL its not just about wins anymore....its about style points....you guys should know that by now....and the play calling wasnt horrible but what i didnt like is how much they relied on timmy to run up the middle or do a draw...i don't want him getting hurt(i sound like a fag i know). We could have at least taken a shot down field....come to think of it did Tim take one shot down field at all.....i know none of them could get open to save there lives...but i don't remember him taking one throw
We didn't rack up a whole lot of "style points" back in 2006, but we still managed to make it to the National Championship in spite of that one loss to Auburn. Like last year, part of it came down to our being in the right place at the right time.
As far as Tebow goes, we needed him as a key playmaker considering how short-handed we were on receivers, UcheaT was throwing a zone defense at us and we didn't want to take unnecessary risks out there (i.e., creating more turnovers). He did made some passes - remember Riley Cooper dropped that one that he should have easily grabbed hold of deep in the red zone?
do you remember how much it took to get us there all the teams that HAD to lose for us to get there not to mention it came down to the wire between us and michigan...and yes we were lucky...but style points do matter
