where is the accountability? going back to the guy who has fumbled twice and lost one? I do not understand. Chew his butt out.

Pull him out and put Iggy in.  You fumble, you sit.

One positive from this game... Jarrett Stidham has looked good.  

I'm glad Stidham has looked good but it's Mercer for crying out loud.

Usually none but right now we really need to win this game lol

He's hobbling! I'm just baffled as to how we don't at least rotate him out for a play. No other running back has touched the ball.

I don't see this team winning 1 SEC game this year.  This team may be the worse team in the SEC this season.  

Yeah, we'll be 1-0 in the SEC around 10 pm next Saturday.

Play Hastings and Iggy. This RD show is getting old personally

How else do you think changes are made?  

Yeah I get they are made when you lose but you don't hope your team loses that's a piss poor fan.

YES!!! I am glad he got popped hard on that RPO.

[War Knight 514]

Guys, how big are the Mercer linebackers? It's clear Gus is afraid of them against any other running back.

We want to make RD our best WR so bad lol

We're just making very simple safe throws, it's going to be either him or Hastings. Whoever is in at that position

"I own the fan frustration but I can assure you our 'underqualified' coaching staff is frustrated too.  We will get better I promise you that".   Um when would that be?

You're not.  You're pulling against Malzahn.  There's a difference.  He's become a cancer to this program

To each their own.

What about Jay Jacobs?

wde

Let's see, basketball=best coach we've ever had, baseball=solid coach, softball=unbelievable hire considering situation, several other programs are top programs in the country. I guess there's football...where we've played in NC games under his tenure....and we operate in the black money wise and stay out of trouble as well as having donors donate tons of money for upgrades. Does he make mistakes? Yes. Are there people that could be better? Yes. Is it likely if we fire him the next one will have as much success?  Possible, not likely

[bigbird 60,580]

Nice mix of play calls on that drive. However, there are still zero intermediate routes attacking the MOF. Everything is to slow developing and will get eaten up against a real defense.

Someone give me one valid reason to keep KP in the game?

gus is trying to save his job

That is just more stupidity.  Not being competitive in the SEC year after year will be enough to send Gus packing. He's on a short leash already.

and he wants to help AU set the record for lost fumbles in a game......

[Altima 200]

haha... unfortunately, after the tennessee debacle in gainsville... ut's gonna fire butch jones.  then they'll have the first pick of all the available coaches... (and we're stuck with gus).

I'm an alumni first of all not a fan.  And I don't want my alma mater to lose but in certain situations changes have to be made and sometimes a loss is the only way for them to happen.

LMAO, you are related to Jay Jacobs or his good friend if you defend his dumb ass. Carry on Mrs. Jacobs.
