Bro your coach fricked that game away.


No, he didn't. Dude was missing five of our best players on offense and we were still in a position to win it with a reliable kicker.

shite happens and it didn't go our way at the end.

It looked like Ruggles was consoling the holder after the kick so there may have been an issue getting the ball placed correctly.

Why?

I went to Baylor for the first 2 years of my college career before transferring back home to LSU and have had a serious hate relationship with them particularly since then Gary Patterson era.

The camera on Ruggles face after the timeout just looked like a nervous deer in the headlights.

Ruggles looked ruffled in the closeups before the look. Genuine terrified look on his face. Moment was inside his head.

Yes he definitely did

You can’t run a double screen and take a 12 yard loss on 3rd down and settle for a FG. You can’t waste a 1st down play with a run up the gut after Strouds long run.

Stroud was great tonight, you averaged 7 yards per play and your first 2 calls are a run up the middle and a short slant. Attack and at least get 8-10 yards. The FG attempt was from 50 yards man.

You should never rely on a college kicker north of 40 yards, especially in that situation.

Day absolutely choked the last two series. The double screen on 2nd down the first series. And then a run up the middle on 1st the last series.

Stroud was dealing and he took the ball away from him. It was some horrific play calling.

We moved the ball something like 45 yards in 20 seconds. Give it up, man. Day isn't going anywhere.

Of course I wanted him to get 15 more yards and kick a chip shot, but UGA wasn't just going to let them do that. And I know this is strange since they had 2 former #1 WRs in their class on the field, but they were without 4/6 of their top playmakers all 4th quarter. You dont replace those guys and just have 0 drop off
Kinda like how the Gumps lost their top 2 wide receivers last year?

It's crystal clear why....

The rest of the big absolutely sucks. If there was any parity Day's play calling costs you another game or 2.

You won't admit it but the rest of us realize this.

Too bad sooooo sad.

The worst play calling I saw from OSU was on defense when they gave up that huge TD pass when up by 11. You're up by two scores. Make Georgia earn every yard and burn a ton of clock to score a TD. Need 2 deep safeties and play a zone, keep everything in front of you and make tacles. Instead they went man coverage on the left side of the formation, DB falls down and it was an easy 70+ yard TD pass.

Need to manage that game better on D.

I am proud of Stroud tonight…he left it out on the field! I just wish he would’ve done this all year, but what a way to to end your career at Ohio State. to you! Also, congrats to Georgia! This was a great game! A classic!

The whole 4th quarter was a crash course on how to blow a huge lead in a monumental game…

Apparently OSU has a long range kicker, and he was nailing them from 60 in practice but they didn't use him.
