Guys this is NUTS. Shotgun, I normally agree with you but I’m all honesty you are wrong here dude. The defense was put into bad situations time & time again against one of the most explosive offenses in the SEC and they only came away with what they did? Are you serious? Ta’amu is pretty good and he was confused on about 85% of his drop backs. One of them should’ve been a pick 6. I’m disappointed in one thing throughout the game. Peters should’ve defended AJ all night. But it was hard to put a legit corner on AJ as they moved him around a lot on offense and he had matchups on LBs & S’s most of the night that’s why they had the 5 big explosive plays on us. Credit their staff for helping out their QB and the offense with structural play calling & alignments, it really paid dividends for them on O.

If you want to be upset, be upset at the offensive staff for MSU. I get it, Fitz got hurt and nobody would’ve expected that going into the game. But, even after that our offensive staff could’ve simplified the game plan with our passing game to help aide Key...they didn’t. The thing they did, we didn’t do. Their staff helped their backup QB by aiding him in the alignments & play calling....we didn’t. It’s that simple. Be mad at Mullen because anybody who knows football knows how to annihilate a hard charging DL & defensive front that loads the box...screens & draws. We didn’t do that to help him (Key)! And don’t tell me it’s not in our offense because he did it with Relf. That’s how Relf used to beat them! Our kids fought back & played hard, our staff lost this game...plain & simple. We didn’t make the adjustments on offense to help Key, that’s why we lost.

I’m normally not the guy to go after Mullen, and I still think he’s the guy for us. But he’s gotta make in game adjustments better when it comes to situational football. Situational football is when the situations aren’t ideal & you adjust based on the environment & situations. He’s gotta do a better job if he’s going to be a big time coach.
