Here’s a question for those who don’t think Milton was a problem today: How many points do you think we score if Nico was our QB today?
His contract is fully guaranteed until January 2026. There’s a 100% chance he gets to year 6 unless he chooses not to.
The struggles this season are pretty simple. 1. Tim Banks and Willie Martinez. 2. Joe Milton limiting the offense. 3. Our inability to identify and develop talent on the OL.
Nico missed the easiest pass in our offense twice against UConn. I’m optimistic about his future but I don’t think his present would’ve made this game any better.
I think calling it "back against the wall" next year is a bit of a stretch, but I think it's fair to call this year a missed opportunity to bank some more goodwill. This team could've gone 9-3 and extended the gap on a hated rival. It would've been an overachievement, but it was there for the taking. Do that and look passable today and he is absolutely riding high going into the offseason. Minor step back that everyone expected, then full speed ahead with Nico. His back isn't against the wall next year, but he has to show that this year was the aberration. Because if we go 8-4 again next year, it sure starts to look like last year was the aberration and 8-4 is what he is. And if that happens, his back may be against the wall going into 2025.
exactly. Are we not having Nico throw his first pass an hour into the game? Will we run for nothing and have Sampson sitting? Do we only get 4 possessions in the first half, fumble on a drive to take the lead and run option first play 2nd half while giving up 9/11 3rd downs at one point and a 20 play 11 minute drive. Do we have 3 drives stalled with holding. Do we allow 300 yards to 1 rb on 3 plays.
https://ncaaorg.s3.amazonaws.com/ch...tball/d2/2019-20D2MFB_InstantReplayManual.pdf Can’t copy and paste for some reason, but page 7 (under The Process) clearly states a play can’t be reviewed once the next play begins. Is this out of date? If not, I need an explanation for how we’ve been [uck fay]ed on this twice.
Did anyone think after playing LSU in Atlanta in 2007 that we'd never win the SEC East again? Pitiful.
if they buzz it before the play but the whistle hasn't blown, they can still blow the whistle. Either that's what happened, or that's what they'll say happened. The thing that absolutely baffles me is how you can run another 25 seconds off the clock after every penalty. Is that a rule, or a hometown clock operator that nobody noticed?
And Alabama or UGA is going to win the whole damn thing again and here we sit 25+ years without anything to put on the mantle.
And the only requirement to initiate the review is that the booth has to buzz the head ref before the snap. The whistle can come after. We get [uck fay]ed by refs a ton, but not in that instance.
Then there’s no point having the “next play” rule to begin with. They can always just say they hit the button before the play started. And it’s not like they blew it dead right at the snap. The play was well underway when they blew it dead. I’d like an explanation on the clock as well.
