"We think we have the answers,
Some things ain't ever going to change. "

- Holly Knight (sung by John Waite)

No pick six on the opening series. Seems like a win.

Not a fan of the play calls on the first drive

3&5 looked like they were all out routes from what I could tell.  Looked like there was nothing there and he threw it where only his guy could possibly catch it, so a plus.  Gator rcvrs are currently open at will.  More ugh.

Yep. First down was probably the easiest down to throw. Probably could have run on third down too. Oh well.

Hated giving up 3rd and 7, but nice job to hold UF to a field goal.

Secondary really hampered by lack of push up front.

agree

Held them to a FG
Taylor covered well when he was in the dime
Burrell (I think) was burned over the middle

Thompson is LOST IN SPACE in coverage

Held them to a FG...WE'RE BACK BABY!

DUMB ass’d decision to relics
Cost us 11 yards

Tall blade of grass

1st down!

couldnt we have had the ball on the 30 there instead of making them rekick?????

what the fizzle is wrong with the field???????????

Great question Coupe. Need some OSU Citrus Bowl cleats.

RAIN
it seems only #8 has issues

snicker

That is zackly what I was thinking - gotta be the cleats!   :toothless:

Remember the last time our D got off the field on 3rd and long?

(https://i.pinimg.com/originals/d8/47/7b/d8477b43831bf117a0e3c975604fdb43.jpg)

That was a no shizzle pick
And the ref 45 yards of the ball called it

ANOTHER defensive TO
Too many on the field

BDV's question makes me sad. Is lack of push by the d front just a talent issue?

Another thing that hasn’t improved is that our gunner coverage
It has SUCKED all year
They couldn’t blocks their shadow!

Down 3-0 after one
I’ll take it

a combo of pressure & coverage I would say.  Lucky for the Defense that our Offense sucks or more opponents would go for it on 4th down  :dielaughing:

They just showed the night that with Stephens running wild we DRAINED the swamp!
I was THERE!

HB seems to have pocket presence.

Fantastic perimeter blocking

 :wow:

Nice drive! :powert:

96 freaking yards!

Carvin was in at center on that drive

We don't need to play the 2nd half do we? Can we just take our ball and leave? Good drive.

NTW , maybe the first time all year we had both TBs in the game

That drive brought a tear to my eyes.  Honestly.  We may end up getting "blowed" out, but that one drive will ease the pain.

Banks :banghead:

Man, that was too easy for UF. Hope we have an answer.

We got caught on 2 blitz’s that drive

Once, we blitzed Burrell and Henry T was slow getting over to cover


In the stadium real time it seemed not PI on Burrell

Back to old Cheney

Looked like he should have caught it?

The fake punt? Yeah. Bounced right off his hands.

It was a drop. No problem with calling that fake.

Not a bad call and it looked like it was an option fake/kick.  Seemed well executed.  Gotta catch that.

Yep. I was thinking it was a good spot to fake even before the snap.

YES!~  MISS THAT KICK YOU fizzleING LOOSER!!!!!!

Way to go D wit da 3 AND OUT.  3 & OUTTA NOWHERE!

So far the boy has some good pocket presence..   

Why did Bailey go out for the play?
Equipment issue?

Also, couple of bad passes

Looks like the line played matador on the last play

Cooper back in for that series

Bailey is having trouble dialing in the long ball for sure.  Don't know why he was pulled out.  I wondered if Coach wanted a word with him.  I did not notice any other issues.

It is not a sin to be blocked
It is a sin to not get off the block

Our LBs can’t cover shizzle
They isolated Henry T on a WR

Trask only gets better in the second half and we all know how well our D plays the final two quarters.  Our coverage out there just sucks.  WHo is the guy that coaches these players???  At least they are playing with some heart.  It's good to see the O play a little better.

Just to put things in some perspective, here are some halftime/final scores of some recent UF games:

UK - 14-10; 34-10
Vandy - 17-10; 38-17
Mizzou - 20-7; 41-17

Believe or not but the defense has played better tonight
Faint praise to be ire
But if we played this well in the last game we would have won

I am hoping Trask gets a cold arm.

I'm sure our team pharmacist is administering everyone's weekly halftime dose of crack via IV right now.

I agree we have played better.  Still not great or up to potential.  It still remains to be seen if this squad can put together a reasonable 2nd half.  With Bailey leading them, I think morale will be better.  But we still have that same ol' staff doing or not doing the needed adjustments.

Pruitt and Ansley have been gambling a lot on defense, with some success
Our LB are the week link today
Most of the big plays have been associated with them

We got lucky on one play
The motioned a WR left to right and he cut up field right at 2 defenders about 15 yards downfield, who watched him run right by. If Trask throws it to mom it’s a TD

if they allow him to impact the game I agree

We have to keep in mind we are playing a very good team - as good as we have faced right there with Bama.

Odds we stop them on this first series? I'll go with 10-1.

Just how bad has losing Bennet hurt us?

Florida receiver just picked the ball off from his teammate for a TD

89 seconds....ugh

The Gator rcvrs have better coverage on the intended rcvr than our guys.  JFC.... :hurl: :rolleyes: :thumbdown: :banghead:

Welcome to the Papa John's Pick Six Quarter of the game.  If the Vols throw a pick six in the 3rd quarter, Knoxville area Vol fans get to Pick Six free pizzas the following day.  Limit one per household.  Cannot combine with other offers.

Had a JG sighting
He greeted JB coming off the field

Until the defensive front is fixed the back end will struggle.

Just can't afford these three and puts.

All three levels are broke

Shedding blocks is not something we do

Taylor or so close

WAY TO GO D!  WE NEED MORE OF THAT FER SURE!!!!!!!!!!

Pirate, you are so right, we are really struggling fighting off and thru the blocks. 

Not sure what that was
Haven’t seen that in awhile

Interesting,
We came out in the wildcat on 4th down and forced a TO

Not optimal, but not a disastrous 3rd quarter. Both sides of rhe ball playing hard.

Shocking news!!!!!!!!!!!!

Only gave up 7 points

Two (2) straight 3 and outs by the defense

IN THE 3RD QUATRTER!!!

Well, that was our shot to make the game quasi respectable. At least when HB misfired he seems to select a food target.

That was our best 3rd Qtr in quite some time.

then came the 4th

For giggles
JT was warming up during the injury TO

Baby steps

Yeah, you had to figure it wouldn't last.  Just getting no pressure at all.

For those watching on TV, I have been using my C8 telescope to get a similar view of Saturn these last few weeks - so beautiful to see "live"

One thing is for certain - it was just a terrible, terrible - unforgivable mistake NOT to play these young QBs this year.  So much opportunity to develop them ......  LOST.

Nice drive
Hardest I’ve seen Chandler run in a bit

The team has not quit

Other than the slipshod footing, the backs have run better today - I even saw a few broken tackles during the game!  Wow :eek:

We more or less have been alternating Cooper and Carven at center all night
That last drive Calvert replaced Wright who was injured

down 3 scores - I dont agree with the onsides kick.  But you go down swinging I guess.  Not a bad msg to send.  Shrout really forced it on the 2 pt try, shoulda checked down to someone else.

I'm not ticked about effort or coaching tonight.

My only aside is if Shroud looks better than JG it is a massive indictment of the coaches. You can argue HB hasn't had practice reps. Not so with Shrout.

Our B/U RT hurt
Wright hobbled out earlier in this drive

Hold ‘me boys

We cover!

Thanks CBS for skipping the coverage of the last kickoff you stupid fizzles
