Leave Scangrello in Oxford

[EliteBlue]

This offense has clearly taken a step back from last year. Not impressed with this hire so far

WHat changed? The OC

 

[EliteBlue]

This "guy" called a good game, we didn't execute. Levis missed several open targets and took unnecessary sacks (the first half "spook" run where there was no pressure but he freaked for no reason come to mind) or took the game in his hands and cost us (could have handed off to Crod when he first fumbled for an easy 1st down but wanted the run himself.

Levis hears the talk about him as a top 3 pick and it's getting to him. There's no amount of coaching that can fix that. Now, Brown missing two big catches and Smoke being incapable of catching the ball at all didn't help, but Will had a horrible game from an individual standpoint. He's feeling the pressure and it isn't all from the opposing defense.

He didn’t call a good game. We needed 30 yards for a FG and he takes a shot downfield…that’s a bad play call in college and he’s calling the game like he has an all pro at QB and WR. Just bc he got bailed out by brown breaking a screen doesn’t make it the right Call

 

[EliteBlue]

He isn’t half the OC Coen was and that’s not just a today assessment. He has made boneheaded “NFL calls” w college talent all year and it hit us today.

Coen realized he was a college OC and adjusted to exploit what he had against the teams he played. We needed 30 yards for a tying FG and Scang waste a down by chucking it 40 yards on a must have drive like it is the middle of the second quarter

I have no problem with the OC, do have with lack of execution at times. If these guys would eliminate their self-imposed mistakes they'd average 45 points a game.

Levis took too much on himself out of first round hype or his strong desire to win the game and it hurt him and the team. Hopefully he learns from it. As for Smoke I wondered why he was in the game at that point. CRod had gotten them down the field into scoring territory. Smoke comes in and gets stoned at the line of scrimmage, and then drops a wide open pass. l would have left CRod in.

Play Sheron the backup qb. He has some smarts. Levis is a bit slow and I don’t mean running.

I have heard it all.

 

[Rockfly78]

Oh good grief. Man, you’re so average. Not bright but not retarded. Just so average and mouthy. Is there anything else? Get the lameness off your chest so I can finally quit your averageness.

It’s ok. It really is. My grandmother was an angel and she didn’t quite know what to make of football either. If she saw the game yesterday I’d imagine she would also blame the loss on playcalling.

Crod is not in game shape. It was obvious to anyone that saw him on the sidelines. He was completely gassed at the end of the game just with the number of carries he had . They used him as much as they could.

Very, very true but it goes to show that CRod at say 65% is better than anybody else UK has. Maybe he'll hit his stride in coming weeks.

 

[bigbluedon]

If Sheron ever has to play serious snaps this year he'll have an impact similar to Wohlabaugh. Not good.

Then why did we recruit him? Just asking.

 

[jnewc2]

You won’t beat anyone missing two extra points, missing a FG, tackling your own dude on a kick return that stops 6, giving them a safety and multiple turnovers and shooting yourselves in the foot on the would be game winning score … typical UK football …. We left 19 points on the field and gave them three points they shouldn’t have had … that’s why we lost not any coach

We’ve been seeing these head scratching mistakes and penalties in big games for a long time now. Heck, it almost cost us the Florida game. It’s never good when Stoops has that deer in the headlights look, he just looked overwhelmed

Keyword is “this year”. Good grief when does basketball start so you guys have somewhere to go?

I’m not sure we have a true SEC back other than Crod.

We do. But he’s hurt. Jefferson was gonna be good

He was a long term project. Nice measurables, decent arm but is nowhere near ready to help us win.

 

[ManitouDan]

One complaint .. Let Crod handle work between the tackles and Smoke to the outside .. not vice versa. And be tad bit more imaginative , throw some outta those tight sets where we show run .

Stoops wasn’t overwhelmed, that look was more of a are kidding me with this sh$t look to me lol

I actually have no idea . It seemed like the staff was high on him though.

 

[Creed Bratton]

Now that’s ignorant. Levis isn’t the one who schemes around a struggling offensive line. When you run slow developing pass plays you have to be able to count on your line. How many drives today does because our OC can’t recognize our Oline can’t protect that long.

Maybe not but he is the one who on multiple occasions locked onto a receiver and never noticed he had an open man elsewhere. As a matter of fact the first 2 times we failed to convert a 3rd down he locked into a guy and forced a pass to them when he had an easy 1st down elsewhere. It has been a fault of his for 2 years and just doesn't seem to be getting any better.
