If Mitchell hangs on to the TD that he dropped and Gay completes the pick 6, it would've been a completely different game (play calling, execution, outcome, etc). Those two plays absolutely killed any positive energy and momentum we had. Playing from behind for pretty much the entire second half changed the play calling.
Yes, we looked like crap, but those two plays played a HUGE role in why we looked so bad.

Hopefully your hatred of Mullen will fade with time (I sure hope mine does). I'm not going to hold this one game over Moorhead's head for the entirety of his career here. If he gets things fixed and goes on to lead us to success, I'll forgive him for this one.

Why on earth would any competent play caller feel the need to change the play calling or press in a 4-point (or 7-point) game with a quarter and a half to go?

25 or more points and a win

I want the team to look like they are having fun and winning every game about like Bama is. There is zero reason why our two losses didn't look like a bama game, except Fitz isn't a guy who only has 6 games under their belt like Tua.

Well, the Mitchell drop was a 14 point swing early in the 3rd...

I was there and can attest to all 3 points

If he wins people will come back. It's that simple. It may take more than one game for some people- but if he wins enough they will come back too.

Did you ignore the last 9 years? Every time we got down by 7 to 10 in the second half, Dan would do 1 of 2 things: either get pass happy or start only calling QB runs. Whichever one of those he decided to do - he would stick with that until we got down by another score. Then he would turtle up and just start trying to get the game over with and go home. Did you ever feel like we could come from behind and win with Dan? No. Because we all knew exactly what he would do and how he would do it. And even if we did score, there was no sense of urgency to attempt to make a come back. The only game I recall making a real substantial comeback in was Arkansas in 2015.
