Why would Phil lie? It's fixable...everything's going to be fine.
I'm off to talk some smack to Gator fans about how badly we're going to pound them.
Guys, no team in the country has all their problems fixed before the season. You dont know what is wrong with your team until you actually play a game. Everyone around the country has problems, even USC, UGA and Florida. The only difference we have between those teams is that we actually go away from our home field on the other side of the country for our first game and our problems turn into a loss to a program with great tradition, pride and nothing to lose, three things you should never underestimate no matter how many of their players get hurt
Well if I am a coach and I see all game long that my qb cant hit the broadside of a barn, I change the gameplan. That is were the coaching staff failed.As much as some like to jump on Phil and blame the coaches (and some is due), to me it all comes down to Cropmton. If Crompton played even a little consistent, we win going away. The OLine struggled vs a nice dline, but Crompton missed plenty of passes when he didn't have a guy in his face. Yes...the no Safety called hurt...as did the fumble and false starts. I'm not dismissing those, BUT the coaches and coordiantors ran plays that got the WRs open. Unfortunately Crompton couldn't execute. Hopefully it was a fluke.
