Yeah it was terrible. Stop them there and that is likely the game. Why stop doing what worked. Reminded me of changing up the D icon the OM drive. Just Why?

I’ll have to look for the replay, but weren’t there 2 missed tackles by LoS

I think stuff like this has been a problem all season. They outsmart themselves with these gimmicks.

Has that play ever worked. It’s like he’s trying to get credit for making up some new creative D, but it sucks and he just forces it anyway

Baker tried that cute shite last year and it does not work.

To whip it out now is such a bullshite move.

I hope he can give an explanation of that alignment. I'm not currently a coach and am willing to listen. It just doesn't offer any significant schematic advantages in my opinion.
It was a pivotal play as we allowed them a huge 3rd conversion on a long distance when they struggled all game to convert in those situations.

Possibly his worst call of the night

You were doing just fine in the second half without getting cute and he calls that.

The last two drives in regulation (our 4th down punt and Kentucky drive to tie) were shocking failures from Kiffin and then Baker. Terrible play calling after the two minute warning, decision to punt instead of going for the win with the ball in your offenses hands. Then you allow a C quarterback to dime you up down the field, sit back in soft zone, zero pressure. Gonna sting for a long time.

The inability of the defense to make a stop when needed and the offense to not shoot itself in the foot, cost them the game.

Which is why your HC should just go for the win with 1 yard.

They were ALWAYS going to get into FG range having 4 downs to do so.
