What exactly did you find exciting about the 2000, 2002 and 2004 offenses? 2000 = Josh Booty with a similar completion percentage to AJ, 2002=offense that had less yards passing and rushing than this year, 2004 was virtually a mirror image of this year, rushing and passing.


2000-------See Rohan Davey and the UT game. Pretty fricking exciting. ALso, the GT game was awesome too. There were flashes of potential. 2014 had exactly ZERO flashes of future potential.

2002-------This offense was coming into its own before injury to Mauck. (36-7 over UF) I don't recall an injury this year for 2014 to excuse this shite.

2004-------Not even close to the same as this year. Randall and JR made their mistakes, but they still had some good games. They threw for 201.8 per game as opposed to 163.9 per game in a much less "offensive" era than 10 years later today.

2000 - It was an exciting year for sure and Rohan did show flashes but the passing game was maddening with Booty in the game. 6-27-2 for 65 yards in Arkansas game.

2002 - You may want to look at Mauck's box scores. He was 4-12 for 52 yards against Mississippi State and threw for 134 yards in the UF win. In the 6 games he played he was sub .500 completion and averaged 130/game. Randall's stat average was similar to these numbers.

2004 - 6, 6, 8, 10...number of completions in last 4 games of the year. Mirror image. The 2 QB situation was a shite show.
