doesn’t matter as the coaching decision should have been easy

Tell the punt team let the clock run out and tell the official you are calling TO just before it does or take a delay

The punt team Should Have known the plan and it was obvious what should have happened. Instead the punt team shaped it right when the TO was called

Last time I checked we’ve won the last 7 games due to his coaching.....

Henry T didn't show up on the stat sheet much other than the pick 6 but he was covering receivers, was the second guy to get to a ball carrier several times and had masterful control of getting the D lined up in the right spots.

He is going to be an AA before he goes pro next year. Complete player and much faster this year as well as diagnosing quicker.

Racking my brain trying to recall a game when one of his “inexcusable” “ignorant” decisions cost us a game. We’ve either been blown out or won in my recollection. No Dooley 12 man on the field or take your pick with Butch.

He also had the rb run through his tackles more than once that is kinda worrisome.

6 tackles ain’t shabby when paired with what you’ve already posted.

Was it the call or the defensive backs execution...I know which one you’re going with and I don’t ACCEPT it. 😉 As for Georgia State, that was a blowout that we knocked down to 8 in the closing minutes. Your turn to carry on but suspect you’ll pass on the opportunity.

The only coaching decision I really had a problem with was the first FG, the one we missed. Fourth and 1, that spot on the field, I was screaming at the TV to go for it. No offense to Cimaglia, but I didn't have confidence he'd make it. Unfortunately, I was right.

I know most aren’t for prevent type defenses but playing aggressive inside of a minute with defensive calls isn’t advisable either a lot of times

I would have went for it too but i think that’s truly a 50/50 call. Hard to Blame Pruitt for that

And if he had gone for it and turned it over? No one would have called it a “mistake”? We’re prisoners of hindsight.

We turned it over anyway. I would have rather have turned it over trying for that yard than missing the FG. And it's not really hindsight on my part.

I'm not hating on Pruitt for the call, but I think it was overly conservative. I agree with Bruin to the extent that it's okay to question some calls, even in wins. I just don't agree on what he's questioning. All in all, I think it was a fairly well-called game. We won. End of the day, that's all that really matters.
