re: It’s funny

In addition to the general tendency to get too high after a win and too low after a loss, this team is one that is really hard to figure because they're right on the cusp of being very good but still have a number of issues. Here's what I took away from the UF game:

1. We have a very good defense but we're just not the dominant D we had hoped for. Injuries have played a part in this and almost certainly played a part Saturday without Phillips.

2. The offense is a work in a progress and, as Ensminger said in the summer, we simply must be able to pass to beat really good teams. I personally think E flubbed the playcalling this game by not passing enough on 1st down.

3. We just played poorly against UF. Turnovers, bad tackling, dropped passes, missed assignments on the OL, and penalties.

With all of that, though, the Tigers were down only 1 with plenty of time. Only a good team could be in that position after playing such a sloppy game.
