If it was next WK, JG doesn't come out. They have taken these two games to get both, ESPECIALLY KC, ready to play, because they could afford to do it. KC was going in there, NO MATTER WHAT. JG is the guy, and I believe they know that, and like what they see. But, they had to take these last two wks, to get KC as many reps as possible. I will be shocked if JG doesn't go the entire game next WK, if he's playing well. I'm like you, I didn't want to see JG come out, but, unlike you, I completely understand why the move was made.

We have seen a number of games come down to the wire against awful teams. Imo you never play a game against an inferior opponent like you are suggesting.

Also and more importantly we had a real shot for JG to leave that game with huge numbers and great confidence and rhythm. He didn't do that the second half because of the flip flopping imo

Many talented teams in the SEC and we have to play most of them. I am not going to beat up on Pruitt if we don't make a bowl. This string of games we have coming is insane. Hopefully we'll come out of it healthy.

Name me one game we have had come down to the wire against an awful opponent in the Jeremy Pruitt era...go?

Also, JG was 12 of 16 for 168 and a TD, 25+ yds rushing, and was in control on the field and on the sidelines...I'd say his confidence is just fine, or at least it looks like it is...imo.

Would’ve liked to see Chryst throw the ball. Hell, I could’ve gone in and handed the ball off. And I’m closer to 40 than 30 and pulled my back ironing a shirt the other day...

Just curious, when did WK become the official abbreviation for week? Also, with having to use the Shift key it’s at least just 1 less keys to press or the same.

My biggest issue with Chryst coming in at the end of the half is that they didn’t let him run the 2 minute offense.

I did, but, it was against ourselves. We did whatever we wanted today, until we decided we didn't want to do it, be it by committing stupid penalties, or turning the ball over. 500+ O, 135 give or take D...that's not a struggle against the opponent.

I just got back from the game and it was one frustrating game to watch. The O was its own worst enemy. So many stupid mistakes that to me shouldn't be happening in your third game of the year. When you think about it, we had one TD called back, fumbled on the two yard line, had the ball on their 45 after a great stop by the D and went 3 and out. There was one other time I believe we had it on their 35 and didn't score. Also,fumbled punt, and ruffing the passer. But how about Chandler? wow ! It he just brought a whole different speed to our running game.

Lol.
Dumb question


But let's looks at these stats:

Before sitting out
8/10
140 yards
14 yards per passing attempt
26 yards rushing



After sitting out
4/6
28yards
4.5 yards per passing attempt
0 yards rushing(officially was in the negative)


The main thing the dang kid needs success and Pruitt lifted him just short of the best half of his career and he wasn't able to continue the hot hand after.

THAT'S what I didn't understand, was the playcalling. Maybe it's a series Helton would like to have back, and just didn't call very well. It happens. But, overall, I like his playcalling.

I don’t get why it’s so hard to admit that the move made no sense. Get the score up to around 31+ and then let KC in. We robbed JG of a two minute drill
