I don’t have as much of a problem with the 4th down calls

As much as I did with some of the other play calling, especially in the red zone.
The pass from Jackson Harris (maybe Wilson I can’t remember) that should’ve been picked off or the direct snap that we didn’t convert on 3rd and 1 when we were struggling to run the ball were wasted downs and opportunities.
Especially when we had been moving up and down the field on them and then we do something that kills momentum.
The only 4th down call I didn’t like was the one in the second quarter where we had it at the 9-yard line. Just take the points and make it a 10-9 game.
The other one I didn’t particularly care for was where Starzyk missed the FG earlier, so I can’t really blame him on that one.

The 4th & 10 from our own 25 was very questionable imo.

The 69 yard FG was dumb but just a weird spot to do anything. Should have pooch punted (which is a normal punt for our guy).

Still makes me mad we didn’t let our shitty punter just punt from there in the 2nd quarter and wanted him to punt out of our own endzone after taking the delay in the 4th.
Just bad decisions all day

All of them didn’t make a lot of sense.
That one would have made it 10-6.
You make that & kick it on 4th & 3 from the 36 in the 4th qtr & we could have been up 19-17 in the 4th

What the f are you talking about? It was a 56 yard FG.
His career long is 53 and he was 2/3 above 50 before this kick.

10-3 you have to take the points when the game is being played with 9 to 14 play drives. There aren’t enough possessions to give away points there and had you taken the points when Alabama hits 17 or even 24 points you’ve got 16 and are within a score so you don’t have to keep going for it the entire 4th quarter.

Yeah but that’s the game anyway even if you punt. The chances of us getting a stop, scoring, getting an onside kick or another stop, scoring again and then getting a two-point conversion are much more slim than converting a 4th and 10.

Remember we were down 24-13 which means we would have had to stop them twice within the 8 minutes left - while scoring a TD between the 2 stops. That's why CLK took the "go for broke" option.
I had much more of a problem not going for a FG a couple of times.

The 3rd and 1 direct snap down 17-13 in the 4th was dumb. We threw it from that look & scored a TD vs A&M. When are we actually going to take a chance to win a big game instead of playing it safe and letting the opponent be the aggressor and win the game for themselves.

The consistent play calling of the same 2 plays in critical 3rd/4th downs annoys me. We run the HB direct snap so often it becomes pretty easy to sell out and defend when you don't have a call off of it. Same with the consistent WR motion screen that we ran 4 times. It worked 2 times and then got a penalty on the 3rd time. The 4th Bama blew it up. Have to run plays off of it which usually Land and Charlie are really good at it so that was my issue on play calling.
The interior offensive line is a problem and there isn't any fixing it this year. Idk why but I really don't see a lot of emotion out of that OL group outside of Seaton and at times Weston. OL and DL need to be mean between the lines and we just don't have that this year.

Maybe you were, but I would not be surprised if you weren't either.
