We won a NC with a bend, don't break defense. I trust Mason more than Roof.

I hear you, but that was a different era.

Arkansas was 4 for 32 on third downs going into this game.

We gave up 10 of 19.

That was 4/32 for 3rd and LONG. They were higher than 12.5% on 3rd down overall before today. Sheesh! 😂

The offenses today are much more dynamic. Roof's defense would get broken on nearly every drive by some of these offenses. But that's just my opinion.

OK I thought that's where you were heading.  Agreed.

I don't think it's just about the W/L it's also about how we looked in those games. You only have to go as far back as the GSU game to see that we just didn't come out playing good football.

GSU was a 3 pm kick

Doh! I'm stupid. Forgive me. I could have sworn it was an 11 am kick off. *slinks away in embarrassment*

So I am definitely not new to this forum. Joined officially in 2015 when I graduated but have been a lurker since then. That said, based on what I have heard from Harsin, it reminds me of the speech from Miracle on Ice (2004):

 

 

 

"I'm not looking for the best players; I'm looking for the right ones."

I'm not sure where Harsin will lead us, but this is the first time I've been excited and so looking forward to the future in a while.

Bo hit 10 different receivers today.  Damn.  Don't ever remember us doing that in a competitive game.

Taking what the defense gives you and not forcing the game is so refreshing!  Go ahead, game plan around 10 receivers...

Bo and Seth had become Linus and his blanket.

I counted two drops yesterday. That’s a massive improvement. Amazing how much better an offense functions, how drives are sustained, and a QB looks when it’s not 7 or 8 of them.

A lot of people love the big, explosive scoring play and those are great, but to have consistent offensive scoring a team has to be able to convert 3rd downs and sustain drives.  Yesterday the receivers allowed us to do just that.

There is so much to like with this program.  The team is showing improvement and also taking on their head coaches personality.  I can not wait to see the development come next season.

That pass that was dropped was a beautifully designed conversion play.  Action goes right with RBs, Bo rolls left only to throw back to his right for the trailing TE across the middle.  :chef's kiss:

I think that Pittman quote was just coach speak. They ran all over us, and prevented us from running.

They will always take away our run game to make Bo beat them (opponents).
