I don't care if we keep the entire defensive staff or fire the entire defensive staff - I just want the 1b concept to go the way of the dodo bird. Yes, we may have built a little depth this year but I also think it cost us big time too. Maybe in ways not as visible as just on field results.
To go even more black helicopter - something seemed off with the team down the stretch. I am not sure if it was just the pressure of finally having some expectations placed on you and that caused some tension in the locker room amongst the players and coaches or what. Maybe the 1A's got tired of having to sit and watch the opposing offense march down the field at will while they kept the bench warm. Maybe it was players on the 1B team that knew they should be on the 1A team. Not sure. But something just didn't seem right.
On the offensive side of the ball, what in the blue hell happened to JRob down the stretch? He goes from gashing defenses like they were girl scouts to not being able to do squat and spending large amounts of time on the bench. Was he hurt? In Mullen's dog house?
I may be completely over reacting but this just didn't look like the same team we saw against LSU and Auburn. If I am overreacting then apologies...just wanting answers. And yes, I am still butthurt over the EB and will be for quite some time.
