Home late, winding down. Great f'ing football game to watch. Didn't seize the moment when we had chances. Proud of the effort tonight. Wasn't there last week at all. Disappointed in not going for it on 4th down. That decision will haunt Stoops wherever he goes no matter what happens.

Stunned at how much our passing game and receivers suck. The regression of Brown and Key remind me of Dorian Baker. Vandergriff played better tonight, but he's still a struggle bus of poor field vision, pocket presence and ball security.

Got to win at spiraling Florida and your home game vs Auburn. Take care of Vandy and Ohio like you're supposed to, and you're at 6 wins. Louisville can still be our bitch.

Sleep.
 
Most on here won't care, but a few will. Ice Cube brought it. Great sound system, energy, graphics/lights etc. and he hasn't lost a step. He went a solid 90 minutes, solo show and just killed it (providing you like Ice Cube) Well worth the money and time. Loved it.

Opened with Natural Born Killaz (and slayed it)

Also, that outdoor venue at Hard Rock Casino Cincinnatti is a really great place to watch a concert.
 
Watched a bit of Van Hiles this morning. Our QB clearly struggles to see the field. Maybe things will slow down for him, but how long will that take?

Not running a play with 9 seconds left in the half and at least TRYING for a TD grinds my gears.

A LB yelling at the ref (where’d he learn that?) while the ball pops in it at his feet and a UGA player jumps at it also grinds my gears.

The punt was just a sad acceptance.
 
Both our lines last night were awesome, especially the Dline in the first half.

Does Barion Brown ever get open or does BVG just never see him? Or maybe he just doesn’t see much of anything downfield.

Kinda sucks we don’t play Miss St now because they f’ing blow. They were thumped by Toledo at home.

Was never a big fan of those grey unis but they actually looked pretty sharp under the lights on the telly last night.
 
Don’t need Van Hiles to tell me Van der Beek has trouble going through his progressions. He had a lot of time on plays and you can’t tell me we didn’t have other guys open had he not focused for 5 seconds on primary.

It’s ironic we recruit 5 tight ends a year and never use them.

Crowd impressive in spite of last weeks beat down.

From a game day experience, cell reception was great. Love the Sabotage intro. The Freebird montage was awesome, light show, fireworks, strippers. It was all great.
 
I'm not feeling morally victorious or anything but after the USCjr drubbing, I feared this team may get blown out by Georgia, the fans check out, and the players just start playing for NIL next year.

The team showed heart and we were not bullied off the field by what is essentially an NFL squad team. There are things to build on. I'm shocked they turned the o-line around that fast. Clearly we are still not good but did anyone really think we would do a better job pass blocking Georgia than USC?

I told you they were going to make a good showing of it. You negative nellies on here make me f***ing sick. You gotta stay positive in life. dig?
 
Man, I'm not criticizing any players after that effort. Question the punt, the two passing plays before the punt, the FG with time left in the 2Q, sure. Blame the refs, fine. The Wildcats balled out on the field, though. 4 scoring drives on offense, forced UGA punt after punt on defense.

OL was night and day, compared to last week. BVG was a little more comfortable, a step in the right direction. Kattus coming back was big. DSK is one hell of a blocker. Defense was who we thought they were coming into the season, maybe better. Brad White dialed up pressure all night and had the Heisman front runner flustered and running for his life. I wouldn't say Hamdan was in his bag ( 🤮 - i'd never say that), but he seemed competent. Looked like he was in way over his head last week.

A couple have noted how amazing Commonwealth is looking this season on TV. It really pops. IDK if it's the ABC cameras or what, but it really is gorgeous.

We're 1-2 but hope is restored. 7-8 wins are still on the table. I was worried we were looking at a 3 win season.

If you criticized that effort last night after bitching all week about football expectations being too high, recalibrate.

Punt or go for it, deep down we all know the end result would have been the same. Disappointment, frustration, anger, hopelessness.
 
I’m mostly pissed that we only lost by 1. Well, not even trying to score a TD at the end of the 1st half ranks up there pretty high.

I swear Stoops, even after all of these years, just can’t get it right when deciding about what to do when it comes to 4th down. He either goes when we shouldn’t or punts when we should. It’s mind bottling.
