Tonight, we had our chances but we let them slip away. I felt like the team was playing hard, but we came up a little short. Maybe they caught us on an off night, maybe it just wasn't meant to be, I do know that fumble killed us.

I don't know if they out-hustled us. For sure they out-muscled us. And as much as I hate to say it, they out coached us. We got a wake-up call, cause we weren't mentally prepared. It's not like we came out flat so much as we beat ourselves with drops and bad passes.

Now, we only have to look in the mirror, and it's a bitter pill to swallow. But, my hat's off to them. I tip my hat to them. You've got to hand it to them. The Hogs deserve all the credit. The best team won today. But that doesn't make this loss any easier to take.

Dobbs said confidence is high. Player-speak.

Its sad, they gave up on the season last week like we did

They're coaches> ours. I didn't even think anyone could possibly be worse than Bielema. He is Vince Lombardi compared to Lyle Jones.

In the 4th qtr, with the game still in grasp, Butch had the look of someone trapped in a timeshare presentation

Btw Bielema has been having a bad year, but over his career I don't think you can say he's a bad coach.

The team should be confident in themselves. The issue is how they're being managed

True, but in key situations they haven't executed and know it. Theyre defeated. They showed little sense.of urgency. Mark Richt has lost control of the teams morale.

The pattern is clear... teams have a difficult time stopping our O for the first quarter or two... then they understand what adjustments are needed... and they implement them. Basically shutting down the run game (sealing the edges, and stuffing the box), that forces us to try to pass. And we know that has not produced much to date. So we revert to the run game... against a D that has figured it out.

So the story goes. And shall go.

It took 4 games for our staff to realize Shy and KMac are the best dlinemen we have. Oline is taught to contain the link e of scrimmage and to this point so has the dline. When you play a monster line like Ark that gets exposed.

And I don't know what we can do now that the other teams have figured that out. No deep threat at all, and even routine throws are hit and miss.

We are playing without our 3 starting WR's, 2 starting lineman, 2 starting lb's and a couple more at different positions... And yet we are still in games. Sucks we are not having the dream season people wanted to say would happen but we aren't deep enough YET to get over that hurdle. If 2016 isn't special then and only then will I jump off the Butch Jones train. Until then, I support him.
