I agree. I just said great because people over the last two years have been critical of me because I said that Robbie shouldn’t be our QB and I wanted to sound more sympathetic.

Robbie is a great athlete!!! Maybe too good. All his life he has been able to do great things on his own. Now in College it doesn't matter how good you are, you have to be able to play in a team atmosphere. You can see when he is in the game he still try's to do it all on his own and it just doesn't work. Having George Pickens to throw to in high school made him look like a better passer than what he is. I'm sure he would excel if they could find another position to put him at. But QB isn't going to be in the cards for him.

When you are in a close game and have a chance for a first down with just a little extra effort you would think your competitive spirit would make you want to give that extra effort. On the play I'm talking about he might not even have gotten hit if he cut back. He came up about half a yard short. I'll tell you the look CHF had on his face didn't say I'm glad you just ran out of bounds.

I was really disappointed when Robbie ran out of bounds short of the line on third down when all he had to do was cut back and get one extra yard. It just seemed to me at that time he would rather not get hit than give that little extra. It looked to me like CHF was frustrated by it too. I think he thought he had the first down but in a close game you have to make sure.

I was very disappointed when RA was in that on 3rd down he came up a yard short on a run out of bounds. He could have turned back up field a little and lowered his head and made the first down easy he just didn't want to take the hit. I couldn't tell if Freeze was disgusted with Robbie or the spot. Either way that would have kept the drive going and who knows what would have happened. I see a lot of good on this team but stuff like that drives me crazy. That was purely a lack of effort on Robbie's part. You have to make sure you get a first down in that situation.

I would be curios this year how many scoring drives RA has led when he actually started the drive. I know he has finished several but start to finish I don't think it's many.

If we can get any kind of passing game going we have a shot. If we have 150 or less it's going to be a long night.

Was it just me or did the UGA defender push down on our receiver on that interception. He was behind him and I looked a couple of times and it looked like our guy wasn't able to jump up because the UGA player pushed down on him. Doesn't really matter now but I was wondering if anyone saw that.

I tried to tell people last week that we were just not there yet and was told I didn't know what I was talking about. We have players coming in that should make things better next year but we have to be patient. Harsen left us in a place that we haven't been in a long time. Next year will be a step up then another the next year. I really believe in CHF. If you thought it was going to turn 180 in the first year you were fooling yourself or didn't realize the lack of talent we have at QB and WR.

I’ll take that as a no.

Have we heard anything about Alston?

I hope I'm wrong but to clarify I don't think there are many middle of the road SEC teams . They are either top tier ( Ga, Alabama, LSU's) or bottom ( Vandy, Miss. St., Missouri etc.) From what I have see so far we won't be favored against, TA&M, Georgia, LSU, Ole Miss, possibly Arkansas or Alabama. Of those I think our best shot is Arkansas. Maybe I'm just pessimistic because of the last couple of years but until we beat one of those teams I won't believe it. I do feel we are headed in the right direction I just don't think we are there yet.

I hope my opinion changes this week but I just haven't seen anything from us that would make me think we can beat even a middle of the road SEC team. We have not played well in the first three games. I have a lot of faith in CHF to get things turned around but I don't think it's going to happen this year. Them 38- Us 16

Praying for all of you!!!

I think HF is doing a great job but we know we have turned the corner when we finally win one of these battles.
