Coaching last night

I know the players are the ones to execute but I will point to a few things which all point to poor Coaching.
1) Flat emotions for the team
2) Still too many penalties
3) Still too many turnovers
4) The biggest one sticking in my craw from last night was the hideous display of tackling. Our D players seemed to refuse to take legs out from under ball carriers. They rely too much on knocks and attempts to strip the ball to create turnovers. Those things come secondary not primary. The worst part is the high tackle attempts. Get the legs so as to stop the runner. Our hight ackling had their runners moving the scrum forward way too much.
This stuff is greatly to fall on the Coaches shoulders. No fundamentals will kill a team.
Based on the way we've played this year so far I see losses at The Swamp, and at home vs. Carolina and Bama. I sure hope I'm wrong though.

Coaches don't fumble or get penalized every week.
Play calls have nothing to do with securing the ball or not moving before the ball is snapped.
You can give some of it to the coaches, but the players have a responsibility to show-up, be excited about the scholarship and what it took to receive it, being a Tiger,and the possibility of winning championships and going to the NFL.

Not so much.

that has been Miles' biggest problem for quite some time along with some game management fiascos.
Our discipline is terrible.

You're not wrong. Unless LSU shows up Saturday and looks completely different from anything we've seen from them so far, we're in trouble. I hope they can flip the switch. I don't see it happening though. Far too many issues

3) Still too many turnovers

The same players from last year took care of the ball. It's a crazy situation but what can the coaches do?
Posted on 9/30/12 at 9:54 am to Bayou
the players didn't want to play this game. they want florida. and it's obvious the fans didn't want this game either. so nobody showed up. but we won and it's time to move on to florida. and, the coaches DO NOT CONTROL the players emotions. influence it, yes but people are not robots. ask any person that has managed a staff of people. this game was shite and we all should have known that in advance. it was awful to schedule them and everyone got what they deserved. college football ain't what it used to be; it's damn near semi-pro now and the revenues generated seem to be the most important aspect of it, period.

Why do you think if a coach freaks out like a jackass on the sidelines that it's a good thing. I can show you plenty of good coaches that are always calm on the sidelines. You want your coach melting down like Pelini and Kelly?

It all goes back to the BCS game, Miles did not coach to win would you want to play this year ?

Man, even with all of the obvious concerns I just still think we're too good for Fla. and USC.
Let's see if the importance of this game coming up Saturday brings the intentsity needed to bring our talent to the forefront.
I'm not interested in rationalizing the last two performances. They were flat out poor.
But the opportunity for the game in Gainesville to be a turning point like it was in 2010 is there. I'm interested to see if we can live up to the moment.
