As must as I love Mett and all the passes, In our last 4 losses, 3 were games where we had more passing plays vs running plays called, only other since beginning last year (ole Miss)
2012 Run plays Pass plays
UF 21 29
Bama 45 39
Clem 19 29
2013
Ga 30 41

Our defense looks spent in big games (esp Clem) when we don't control clock by throwing more. They don't when we control the game



You'd have to be an idiot to not realize that we lose by double digits if we don't throw as much as we did against Georgia.

He's suggesting that our offense is too fast to rest our D. That's a poor excuse.


i know and i agree. but i'm saying we can't control the clock with our anemic running game. hill is a great friggin' rb and hilliard, blue and magee are damn good also. our OL is supposed to be great but imo they are great at pass blocked and our blocking schemes for running the ball are just not that good. some plays we're dynamite but bread and butter wise we suck at run blocking. i honestly think cam came in and made us a passing team and neglected the run.

This.

Clemson and South Carolina had no problem running on Georgia

I think we are overreacting to one loss against a team that made us have to pass to keep up and stopped our running game and made us one dimensional.

Most losses result in more pass plays because you are trying to score faster.

The defense might get off the field if they stopped playing cover 2 against 31 sets. They are doomed to fail.

Good point GRTiger, but we were playing down big in any and had lead in 2-3.

I think ToP is fairly overrated.

UGA beating us while having the ball for 3 fewer minutes is just one example.

UGA didn't need the ball long because they ate up huge chunks of yardage quickly and easily on the defense, starting in the 1st quarter and ending in the 4th.

I don't think it was a case of the defense being "worn out."

Clemson had 102 less passing yards vs Georgia compared to LSU. SC had 144 less passing yards. How come they had problems throwing against Georgia?

I'd rather win 9-6!!!!


Or lose 21-0, right?

This is silly. In years past, our defense has been outstanding and our offense poor. This year is the reverse. To assert that the offense is the one doing something wrong is ridiculous. If the offense didn't score at the rate they did last Saturday, we would have been blown out.
