Run up to the line, look back at BK 's retarded old arse for so god damn long, we erase momentum of the play and have to call timeout.

So what do we do out of the timeout? Run the play we should have run anyway, Durham up the middle which goes nowhere, vandy is rested.

Then we call a great play to Thomas for the TD only to have a procedure penalty knock it off.

For all the other issues we’ve had this season the short yardage red zone offense is the #1 worst of all.

Failure to execute short yardage is 100% coaching. It’s either the play call or the blocking Either way it’s coaching. There is no explanation for the talent of this program to NOT move the ball 2 yards against Vandy.

Durham was ran down twice in big runs vs Florida and Vandy…..Ran down! Should have been TDs for both.

Agree 100%, no reason we can’t go big on big and push through for a yard. Let’s not forget we only recently started going under center in these situations which is also ridiculous. We’ve also never used our 240lb back in these situations, even worse Kelly has tended to go with the smallest back on the roster on the goal line since he’s been here. It’s insane

It seems even worse than last season, and last season it was atrocious.

Sloan is just not good at his job. If I was as bad at my job as he is at his, I'd be a line cook at Cracker Barrel tomorrow.

The fact that a guy like Sloan was even given the OC job here is crazy. Nothing personal to him but we’re attempting to win a title and that’s the guy you pick? Do you see any other contending teams doing something like this? I can’t think of one

The run game seemed like we were tearing it up only to find out we ran for only 100 yards. I guess we got away from running since we couldnt stop them in the first half

That was the point in the game I knew we had no chance to win.

Every LSU fan knew we were doomed when he got tackled short of the goal line.

Short yardage has been an issue his whole tenure even with JD.

That’s not what they ran out of the TO

The TE jumped on the 1st play which was a TD

Pretty sure that was the second play which followed the timeout and led to that stupid direct snap.

He runs out of gas near the end zone every time. It’s inexplicable.

An inexcusable sequence that has happened at least once damn near every game

Absolutely inept coaching staff

Pretty sure that was Johnson, who consistently gets stuffed running up the middle

That was the second play. First play was Johnson getting stuffed at the line where he could’ve twisted and fought and made a touchdown, but instead basically crumbled after the first contact.

The entire team looks out of shape. They get gassed easily and, no fire inside.
