Just a really ugly half of ball on offense. We look tighter than we did last week. They don’t look like they’re having fun like last week. Coaches should have called a time out there before the clock ran down. Do we no longer have someone with the responsibility to watch the clock?

I believe we will be a lot more zoned in next week. This is a good EARLY HUMBLING EXPERIENCE for the coaching staff and players. We will see how they respond. I want 42 points in the second half Agreed . What I want to see is some real fire this second half, especially early when the first string offense comes on the field . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wcware 1,365 Posted September 11, 2021 Share Posted September 11, 2021 It’s like people have been waiting to enter meltdown mode. Are we just more comfortable there as a fan base? Yes, we played like shite that half but some of this is hilarious 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does that help? And we've done that in the afternoon and night too. 2019 vs Tulane 2018 vs Southern Miss 2017 vs Mercer 2015 vs San Jose St I can go on, but hopefully you see the point. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just want to see preparedness and fire. Now that I think about it, perhaps our guys are just coasting and looking at next week? I think so. It’s not that Alabama State is better than Akron, we just don’t seem to care about this game as much (except for our LBs who wanna take your head off regardless) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sizzle 3,926 Posted September 11, 2021 Share Posted September 11, 2021 Clean up the mental mistakes and penalties and we’ll run the score up. It’ll also help if the OL can get a consistent push 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zeek 16,660 Posted September 11, 2021 Share Posted September 11, 2021 (edited) Two dropped passes and a loud student section keeping this from being a blowout. We're missing our two slot guys right now. Not even using the TE. Second half should be much cleaner. Edited September 11, 2021 by Zeek 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pitt is a better team and program over the last 5-6 years than Tennessee. Nothing about that score should be surprising to anyone who has paid attention. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
