Duh you dullard. It's NEVER executed. That's why people exploded over it.Oh and ignore the absolute poor blocking on that 4th and 1 in which the right tackle didnt even block anyone
Execution matters whether you want to believe it or not clown
What part of poor execution didn’t you understand? I said I liked the idea of going for it.
Sorry it wasnt clear. You said you loved the "Call", so I thought you meant the play call not the "decision" to go.What part of poor execution didn’t you understand? I said I liked the idea of going for it.
going for it on 4th 1 from your on 35 in 1st quarter down 7-0 with an AA punter on the sideline?
Pathetic.
I had more of an issue with the play call than the call to go for it. The same play call on every 3rd or 4th and 1 has got to change. I mean would it kill us to either go under center and sneak it or do a play action pass to a TE?
That's what you would think but apparently Bowden does not go under center. He was even in the gun on the victory formation.
Name one team that hasn't had QBs transfer?QB's will transfer if the coaches won't even put them in during blowouts.
Our 3rd string was injured before the season started.
I'm not saying transfers won't happen. I'm saying they're more likely to happen at UK because we never get snaps for the backup unless there's an injury. But we need to put these scrub teams away and quit toying with them so we can get some experience for our backups. That way they don't look so lost when they do have to come in. I know this is where people will say Lynn Bowden did fine and he did but there was no game film on him and Arkansas is terrible. If he stays the starter I have my doubts that our offense can keep us in games. We will be way too one dimensional.Name one team that hasn't had QBs transfer?
Most of the teams in the SEC are either playing a QB who has transferred to them or had QBs transfer away.
Fields left UGA for Ohio State, Jacob Eason left they year prior and starts this year at Washington
Hurts left Bama for Oklahoma
Bryant left Clemson for Mizzou
Burrow left Ohio State for LSU
Neal left Ball St for Vandy
Hicks left SMU for Arkansas
Stevens left Penn St for Miss St
Smith left Troy for UK... Clark and Hoak left UK...
Fuzz, do you realize that every single high school quarterback that has come to UK since 2011 up until 2017 has transferred, with the exceptions of Drew Barker, who appeared inclined to transfer before instead retiring from football, and Walker Wood, who may yet transfer if he ever wants to see the field as a quarterback?Name one team that hasn't had QBs transfer?

Haven't we beat this horse to death? I didn't like it either. He owned it, lets move on.going for it on 4th 1 from your on 35 in 1st quarter down 7-0 with an AA punter on the sideline?

As I said earlier the backup does not play unless there's an injury. Then he is forced to come in and take snaps and is not prepared because he has no experience. And if Wood literally is no option at all, then why in the world is he taking up a scholarship? As far as the scrub teams, EMU and UT-Martin this year would qualify. But even if TW had not gotten hurt late in the EMU game, if Smith got in he would only be handing the ball off. The coaches would not let him throw the ball to get some experience.How many "scrub teams" do we play?
A kid is going to stay because he gets a few mop up snaps in 1 or 2 games?
We had Smith as a backup with experience. In his first game he throws a pick and hurts his wrist making the tackle...continues to play and injures shoulder.
Our #3 gets hurt pre-season...so you want Wood to get snaps when the kid is physically shot? We can get him snaps...if we have to play him we're hosed anyway.
It will get more difficult for Lynn but he's the best option you have. Every snap he takes he is getting experience at the position...you want to give those snaps to Wood? Gilmore isn't even dressing for games.
Smith had 254 passing attempts in college before ever taking a snap at UK. In fact he had almost the same about of experience as Terry Wilson, Wilson had 268 attempts. He has since passed TW in passing attempts, completions, games played, passing yds in his career.As I said earlier the backup does not play unless there's an injury.

Yes I watched the game and afterwards reporters caught Stoops apologizing to the other coach for throwing the ball that late when basically said "my guy's out for the year and I had to get him (Smith) some experience." Again, if TW had not gotten hurt then Smith probably would not have played at all and if he did then he would've only handed the ball off. We've seen that over and over with Stoops. And Smith's experience is with Troy. For whatever reason, it takes our QB's quite a while to be effective in our system.Smith had 254 passing attempts in college before ever taking a snap at UK.

Smith had the final two TD passes and 9 attempts vs EMU...did you not watch the game?
We have not yet played UT-Martin.
Wood is the scout team QB. He had committed to UK and was injured in the state championship game in high school. UK honored their offer and signed him anyway. He has had two additional surgeries since arriving on campus. They would like to move him to a different position but because of other departures can't do so.

So who is at fault? Certainly not the dudes making millions. If Stoops ever leaves this job, he must be a moron.
