UK - Ole Miss Game Thread

[Ukcat]

Phew. Was afraid UK score a TD and not do the smart move and kick the FG...Had Under 54.5

Should have kicked two FGs and only be down 1 and about to get the ball back to kick game winner.

I think Stoops is trying to adapt to the criticism from games like Georgia last year and be more aggressive on 4th down, but you can tell it’s unnatural for him. He doesn’t seem to have a very good feel for the difference between smart aggression and desperate longshots, which is what that first 4th & 9 was. Could have been a different game if we took the relatively easy points there.

We got our answers again this year early.

Coaching mistakes bigger than the player mistakes. We kick 2 fg early in the 4th and we are at the 29 with 17 seconds to go and have 2 or 3 plays to get it in the endzone.

OC and Stoops will not win an SEC game this year.

Boley should be leading this team the rest of the year as it is another throw away year. He can at least get the experience to build for hopefully a bigger year next year.

Defense will not do well against the bigger boys coming up on the schedule.

We will have a chance to beat UofL if they continue to play like they did against JMU.

We will be 3 and 9 or 4-10. Hopefully we do better but do not see it.

Mystifying play calling in 4th quarter. ANOTHER time management screw up before half. How many years does Stoops need to get a handle on this . My goodness what a dumpster fire our coaching is.

Im officially done with Stoops

Barnhart has to take action and get it done

Very disappointed in coaching and play calling. Please ask Eddie Gran to take this over.

The play selection was often....incredible.
The team being disoriented was refunding.

If we are going to look bad and lose we should select a different staff.

Very limited game time, but I don't see Boley as a big step up from Calzada.

Why in the world is Boley ducking a shoulder and taking a hit? If both ZC and Boley go down, we won't score an offensive point until one of them returns.

A FG with 13 seconds to go, down 10? Sure, that's a great call, Coach.

There's too much focus on the quarterback. Calzada has made some bad decisions and bad throws, and done little to make me optimistic about him. I wanted to see Boley - and Boley has a nice arm. But even the best quarterbacks are going to struggle if you have receivers who just don't get open. WR is a MASSIVE weakness on this team.

Barnhart is the reason Stoops can't be canned. Just like Cal, he gave him a lifetime deal that handcuffed the university.
Mitch should never be allowed to negotiate contracts ever again.

We have 2 very good running backs, we should be running the ball until we have to throw it. This guy keeps passing the ball like it's what we're best at.

[blueheretic]

Why did they go get Calzada? He's not THAT much of a step up from Boley.

Get Boley a year of experience instead of wasting time on another 1 year guy. Jesus.

Stoops is a freakin' slow customer.

Stoops blamed it on cal holding the ball too long and oh yeah "we have to get back to work " if delusional sunshine pumpers would quit spending thousands of dollars every year for this garbage than changes would be made 36-64 now
