35-21. Eleven minutes left. It would be nice to put together a clock-eating drive here.

We have NO running game.

Passing game is another thing though.

Remember all those years we ran 20 draws a game? Would probably work here.

Not sure we are coaching to not let receivers behind us.

Swann has made some really bad decisions tonight. Just locking on a receiver and not seeing open ones. Usually not checking down to the open slot or back - forcing it downfield will lead to pics in the SEC. Finding the wide open option is what “next level” qbs do.

He’s a good qb. But film study will be painful.

And now it is a one score game. Think we will be ready for an onside kick?

Why go for 25 yard pass play to a well/covered receiver on 4th and 4?

Our OL is anemic so there is no run game.

They've outplayed us. There's little reason they can't pass their way easily for the winning touchdown.

Damn, people. Have you NEVER practiced covering a ball at the goal?

Only running up the middle was not the answer.

I may be a broken record, but our only successful runs were wide or misdirection. At crunch time, Lynch wants to run between the hashes - it almost cost us.

Lynch showed he can call misdirection and quick passing schemes. But he still doesn’t trust them. He needs to trust them.

A W is good. But HA having a chance to tie in 4th isn't.

The only reason is Schrager didn't throw the pass. Thank you Dalen.
