SEC network showed the other day that without Williams, they don't have a back with the speed to get to the corner and turn up field. 

Tuttle and MacKenzie are supposed to get more reps this week.  I hope they have a coming out party.

Well, I would hope.  Those guys were recruited to beat offenses like the next three we play. 

Likewise, all of our 4 and 5 star WRs were supposedly recruited to beat secondaries like UF's.  So what do we do with them?  Hide them.  Use them as downfield blockers.  We sure as hell don't want to actually throw to them...because UF has a good secondary.

I see your point, but at the same time, given that we piled up 254 yards on the ground, I think the gameplan was pretty sound.  Our offense didn't lose that game.  Dobbs is also pretty erratic throwing the ball, but even in spite of that we had some throws over the middle late in the game that were complete.  Of course,  I think those were to the TE, so I do agree that the WRs need to be used more.  I just think our offense played well enough to win.  If our D could have held on ONE FREAKING FOURTH DOWN.....
