Skull punting Mullen in his own house. The downhill slide starts today. Enjoy it.

Maybe. Mullen just sent a subliminal message to Moorhead on SEC Nation: "The role of a coach is to play to your players' strengths and put them in a position to win." Opposite to that is to make your players adjust to what you want to do whether they're good at it or not or ready for it or not

He sure loved playing his seniors over better players while he was at State. Holloway up the middle wasn't playing to any kind of strength.

Yeah I heard that. It was either a subliminal message or just plain cotton picking common sense.

Don't forget Perkins up the middle too.

That's a big part of why 2014 was a good year for us...Tyler Russell was gone so Dan had to play that Dak kid who was riding the pine / only coming in for a Jump Pass or two...also Perkins was gone so Dan was forced to have to run a physical powerful RB like Josh Robinson up the middle instead.

I'm with you. I think it's just common sense. If the coach wants to implement a system install, at least do it in phases for transition. The whole this is how we're gonna play regardless is just stubborn.

All of those talking about Mullen's run calls up the middle.. Maybe just maybe, those run calls were to keep the defensive end from constantly playing the outside on the read-option. I didn't like the calls at the time either but def think there was a method to the madness unlike what we have seen the last two games from Moorhead.

Very sparse crowd there today. Michigan had empty seats too. Must be an issue everywhere, even with big games.

So far they're doing just that to Florida. And to think ... just two or three weeks ago most everybody had LSU down as a solid W for us.

I didn't notice ... did they show Mullen smirking on that drive?

LSU looking strong.

Did I miss something? It’s freaking 7-7 and ESPN gametracker has UF chances of winning at 55.8%. Lot of folks love to make knee jerk judgments around here. After reading this thread I expected LSU to be up 3 TD’s.

You obviously missed the "So far" part.

There was no such “so far” part in the quoted post.

”LSU looking strong”

”Can’t help but feel good for ogre”

I mean they had one good drive. They scored 7 points against us last year too.

I am... End of 3. Fla 14 LSU 13

Regardless of what happens in this 4th qtr.

I'd say our definitions of *** Whippings are very different.

And a week later people are still livid that we didn’t beat this Florida team like a drum. In big boy sec football execution is king and missing the few game changing plays that we missed caused us to lose that game as much as anything. I know there are foundational issues that need to be addressed but our game liked just like this one but we didn’t execute.

I’ll say watching LSU slice through them on this drive renews the hurt from last week all over again.

Correct, but you said "this thread", which includes the "So far" part. A mere technicality, but it doesn't matter either way.

It's 20-19 right now, Florida, so the teams are really even and no blowout either way. LSU might even be better if you give Florida the 3 point home advantage. It's been a really good game.
