So I have been and remain critical of Sark's playcalling on offense. However, I do think we should consider not framing everything through the offense. IMO this should clearly be a defense led team. And they performed pretty magnificently. Now if the offensive playcalling could continue to adjust to complementing the defense versus operating in an offensive vacuum then I think we might settle down and play some more consistent football. On Arch's second interception, I'm not sure you are helping the team out by calling a deep wheel route to your 3rd string(?) TE with a backup LT in the game. I agree Arch needs to eat that but why are we calling that play in that instance? I don't get it. I liked the commitment to the run game. I wonder why we got away from the short passing game. Those really complement our defense. There is a path to more consistency for this team but I think it means playing to win with defense and a bit of ball control. Your thoughts?

Good choice . Hook em

Is anyone else in the country that much better? We could lose to everyone left on our schedule or win out. This season is hard to explain. Georgia lost to Auburn at home. If the original poster reads this board, very few think we are anything but what we have seen. Capable of beating Ohio State and losing to Blow U or Florida . We won. Apparently the poster thinks we should never have a close game or get a penalty. Sorry, with this crew we had Saturday, we average over 10 penalties in all the games they do and 6 with rest of SEC refs. Non SEC refs we have less .

bingo

I think these are fair criticisms but I also think you’re missing the point that we saw 3/4 quarters of excellent football. So I do think there is some change, but I think it’s fair to say the change has to happen faster.

I said penalties was a problem. In fact, penalties was literally the first thing I said. Winning like that bothers me for the same reason it bothered me against UTSA and Tennessee. Then we lost to two unranked, trash teams. Last I checked we still have to play @ LSU at night (probably), and @ A&M in a rivalry game we have won the last two seasons, just like OU.

sorry buddy I’m sure there is some good points in there but I ain’t reading all of that.

This team and staff are just this way. Starts with Sark. He's undisciplined in his play calling, handling of players and his coaches. End results is what you see on game days. Players who do stupid things to get penalties, plays called that make you wonder "wtf" was that and coaches that continue to put their room on field that is totally subpar (special teams). I'll just ride the win for what it is this week. I fully expect the remaining games to be Rollercoaster every week.

We have a brutal schedule and a bunch of great pieces that are learning to be cohesive. Steady improvement is the key. The penalties must go though some of the officiating against Ole Miss was brutal.

LB commit?

Or the WR.

Easton Royal flipping back confirmed

If you want to watch perfect football, go play NCAA on Freshman mode 🤦‍♂️

Did Gerry re-commit to OTF? Enjoy your time off.

Watching my team win makes me happy

I see 84 with about 25% chance of rain.

people need to realize college football, esp. the SEC, is much more like the nfl now. just win baby. some of yall are stuck in the past fixated on style points. we actually played 3 quality quarters for the first time this season (meaning = improvement)

Did you miss all the penalties on the defense? This section confirms your entire post has an agenda...... Wild.. Winning bothers you.

Perfect and what they have put out are very, very different. I am okay with the defense giving up points or the offense not scoring. Can't keep having the self inflicted gut shots. Obviously we play some good teams and they have an opinion too. Losing a matchup is expected, a freshman punching a guy in the face is the stuff that can't be allowed to go un(severely)punished.

Cooler temps with between a 40-60 percent chance of showers, depending on which forecast to believe.

I don't even blame Arch for the first pick. That DB wasn't supposed to be there and it would have been a completion if they didn't both take the same guy. Blind squirrel finding a nut thing. It was thrown a hair late, but nothing egregious. The pick on the pass to Winston was an Arch style pick all day. We showed something to get excited about and the team should be able to feed off of that moving forward. You saw renewed energy and effort from the entire team when Arch played the way he did. That's all we need to beat every team left on our schedule outside of LSU.

The result is the thing I most wanted to change.

Dude just be happy with the win, I’m sorry but if you’re expecting a perfect 4 QTR team this year it’s not going to happen. Things will look gritty and ugly but it is what it is, survive and advance. We’re not the only team struggling with the same things

I live in Houston, I don't even know what grass is.

Somebody must have slept through the game and hasn’t read the game thread.
