UK-Auburn Game Thread

Amazing. Why?

[Bourbonman]

Well the fat lady is singing now. We just have to lick our wounds, learn from our mistakes and get ready for next week. We can't blame the side judge for this loss.

Agreed, really can’t blame side judge. Yet, we’re a team that needs to get by on juice. How would have been our juice if we came out of the half with the ball and a 6 point lead.

Yet the side judge didn’t
- teach us poor tackling
- go for two much too early
- scramble and hold the ball in one hand
- fake a punt so deep in your own territory
- point to their offense moving and then hit a player during dead ball
- Stoops said it coming out of the half, we need to not beat ourselves. Well ....

Auburn has some great players. That wide receiver should be playing on Sunday.

We still have a good team. But looking difficult to being better than 5 & 5, at best. Ole Miss has put 29 so far on board against Florida defense. Next week will be tough.

We just refuse to give a back up QB any reps do we. Just a mystifying coaching philosophy IMO

[Bourbonman]

Yes, give Beau some reps. It caught us short last year.

[Bourbonman]

He was down twice

[teamchemistry15]

Very little sense of urgency with this still only being a two possession game.

[teamchemistry15]

Good grief. Screen, screen, screen.

[Jload]

Not exactly a masterpiece called by Gran today.

[Matt Dillon]

We can find lots to blame this loss on, but the one thing that stands out, most of all, to me is we seem to be lacking a dynamic playmaker. Obviously we'll never know, but if we had someone of Lynn Bowden Jr.'s caliber, at QB today, I believe we would have won the game. Lynn has the refuse to lose mentality that a team leader must have.

[Lighthouse]

I'm certainly not happy with a lot of decisions by players or coaches today. #1 Joseph really disappointed me today!

[Jload]

I agree, we seem to be really lacking at receiver , night and day difference between or receivers and Auburn’s. We also have problems at corner and safety. All that said however I can’t see our QB taking us to glory. He just isn’t a good enough passer

[40bill]

Sixty more yards offense. Time of possession. 3 turnovers. All crucial.

I couldn't watch, but sounded like late game loss of composure.

Matt is correct twice....not only either not having a playmaker or getting them the ball if we do, a disjointed performance by the quarterback.

And a lack of refuse to lose mentality.
No sense of urgency, and strange play call selection.

Lot to work on. Likely one reason you start the season with compass direction University for two games.

Strangely disappointing, even if it was AT Auburn.

[Bourbonman]

I’d like to say we had an average game, but we lost this on on phases, except yardage. This year looking troublesome with play like this.

[Matt Dillon]

This team today looked nothing like coach Stoops' last two teams to me.

[teamchemistry15]

This team today looked nothing like coach Stoops' last two teams to me.

Nothing at all. I'm not sure why we didn't run it more. Our line was getting decent push and we've got the backs. Smoke getting less than 15 carries a game is unacceptable, IMO.
