Too much wrong with tonight.

[Shamoan]

Coaches got abused often. Just throw away the game tape because you can't learn anything positive from this. It's hard to point out a missed tackle or block or read when your coach constantly had the team out of position. That's the truth.

 

[BigMotherTucker]

Its not a positive, but the tape does tell us one thing. We dont have any receivers. The tape also tells us we are very one demential. The tape also tells us that Fitz pretty much sucks as a passer. Yep... I said it. Its out there...

 

[She Mate Me]

demential?

 

[TBone.sixpack]

That performance made me demential.

 

[BigMotherTucker]

please critique my spelling. please. thats what we're worried about tonight.

 

[57stratdawg]

We had a lot of WRs quit on routes today.

 

[She Mate Me]

I'm really not that guy, but demential was far enough away that I thought we might all get a smile.

 

[gasdawg]

Also learned that 7 should not be starting at corner. Got burned a few times but also gave up on a run play that could have been stopped at LOS

Can anyone provide evidence why Tolando Cleveland deserves to be a starter based on anything he's done in his entire career at State? I've always seen him get abused in coverage up until he got hurt. Then the Bobby Cs and Rosebowls of the world tell us we were missing a big piece on defense last year and that he would be a good player for us. Not seeing it guys. He's not very good and he's starting bc he's a senior.

 

[Requiem For A Dawg]

He's been awful since he stepped foot on campus.

You win post of the night.

There were a few awful looking passes. I'm hoping he was just way over hyped for this game. It seems like coaches pointed out in the past that Fitz has trouble settling down before a game, and playing a homecoming game could have exacerbated this tendency. That's what I'm hoping anyway because we are running out of Louisiana schools to play.

 

[Uncle Ruckus]

He's that ****** player everyone loves ala Holloway/Shump

Haha I agree. I root for all of our guys obviously but I have a problem with him starting IMO. When I listen to State radio shows "people in the know" tell me he's a starter and a leader and all this BS. I think to myself this is the same guy that got torched in 2014 and 2015 and was injured in 2016. I'm supposed to believe he's gonna be good just in time for his senior year? Ok gotcha. Hadad was the only one I can remember calling it bc he was 23rd or last in his starter confidence ranking preseason.

Our coaching put us in the dementia dimension last night.

Fitz is no great passer, but he doesn't really suck. Sure, he can sometimes inexplicably badly miss an open receiver less than 8 yards away from him, but his throws last night were often catchable passes that were not caught. Part of that is because we never or hardly ever had any receivers separate themselves from the DB's. The other reason is because Georgia DB's got away with pass interference a few times (especially number eighteen).

We are a run first team. If we ever have to pass first, we are done.The weakest links on the team are pass catchers and pass defenders. The defensive secondary is hot garbage.

 

[bruiser.sixpack]

Cleveland got burned on the opening play because our run supporting safety McLaurin got sucked in by Play Action. If McLaurin stays home. That receiver is covered down the middle. And later in 3rd and 1, they burned us with the same play we burned LSU on because, again, our safeties who have middle responsibilities guessed run.

If what I've read today is correct, Grantham has had issues with this in the past. McLaurin has been tremendous in run support. He comes in aggressively and quickly. Looks like that's easy to exploit when you have a QB and deep threat WR.

Since receivers or the lack thereof are and pretty much have been a major problem, why does Gonzales not get the same heat as Hev?

I think many State fans perceived UGA's "coverage" as pas interference because we cannot recognize good tight coverage since we never have DBs who can perform such tasks. Either every WR they have runs the best routes in the world, or our DBs couldn't cover two grandmas in wheelchairs. Which do you think it is. They threw 12 passes, completed 9. Had they really wanted to run up the score they could have doubled their pass attempts. They were 1-4 passing in the second half, yet put up 17.

Pass interference not being called was not a factor.

Best analysis I have read today.

We still like to blame De'Runnya's stupid ***

Honestly, because he's a really nice guy that people like.

 

[KentuckyDawg13]

How many low snaps did Fitz have to reach for? 12? It was constant in the second half. As if Fitz needed more to worry about.
