First pass defense 18 first downs, players constantly out of position Russell usually had time to be very accurate. 2. Two turn overs a devastating fumble at the worse time. 3. Two critical first downs on two UT penalties. 4. Kicking game one 13 yard punt that flipped field position and failure to catch kickoff leading to a turn over and score. 5. Failure to get the ball to CP more often. He is our Demps and Rainey and he needs to get the ball often and in different sets just a huge mistake not using our best athlete. 6. Not enough use of tight end and back out of back field pass, look how many times the MSU backs got really good yardage with swing pass, by running the tight end over middle and wideouts down the field leaving their backs wide open on the corners. 7. Twice I saw MSU fake a wideout swing pass screen, both times our corner and linebacker both went for the fake running up field leaving the MSU slot receiver wide open. 8. Terrible clock management at end of game
So what does this all boil down to? I am sorry and saddened to say except for the fumble it is a lack of coaching and preparing properly for the opponent.

Yesterday was the first time I feel the coaches actually made proper adjustments for the 2nd half and the players just failed to capitalize. Two plays come into mind, Young's fumble and Moore's dropped pick both were BIG mistakes our guys made after the coaches actually put them in the right spots. I believe Neal's injury was biggest event of the whole night.

I did not mention the dropped interception, as MSU also had one go through their hands. I agree we did make some adjustments, but they still owned the fourth quarter in points.

Moore should have had the pick, but that's probably why he's playing DB and not WR.
