Just like how we've seen this coaching staff be up more than 2 scores, up at least 10 points, on a very good team, with ease in the first quarter then try to sit on that lead for the entire game. In turn killing our defense all game, and our offense getting stagnant. The opposing team gaining momentum on our tired defense... This has happened more times than I can remember.
Then people act like CBJ turned the corner against Georgia last year. No he didn't. We were close with them all game. If we stay close with a team, whether up slightly or down, then they have to continue pushing. With a lead that has a slight cushion they take the approach of playing safe. I think it's partially coaching philosophy on their part, and lack of trust in the QB/O-Line/ and receivers.
It's like when we played Bama last year. When we got up on them my wife thought I was crazy when I said we needed Bama to score. It's the only way they continue to call aggressive.
At least last year we could actually show out against less talented teams. Now we have Gators next week with our offense worse than last year, and our defense missing Kirkland, Sutton, and possibly a dinged up JRM. Yay

If we win every game everyone will be happy ugly or not!
It's true he has won 2 more games each year from the previous, But 1 less than he should have each year, Florida was horrible 2 years ago so bad it got their coach fired and they still beat us, last year under their 1st year coach they beat us again and to the SEC championship game.
And I am happy we are 3 -0 this year but we have been more lucky than good (missed Fg and extra point) ( 5-6 fumbles we were fortunate to get back)
So to the ones thinking we are out of line complaining when we are 3-0 this is why-----the team has not played up to their full potential not 2 years ago, not last year and not this year so far so we think there is reason for concern!!
For the ones who are way over reacting while we are 3-0, chill out,let's see what happens the next 4 games before we start "firing coaches" and jumping out windows!
