1. It appeared to me that two entirely different OCs were calling plays for Brock and Boley. Like completely different thought processes involved. Personally, I thought the plays called for Boley >>> plays called for Brock. A lot of quick routes, short drops, middle of the field and flats. Brock, with an injured shoulder is throwing bombs. I mean, WTF?
2. When Brock was playing, why weren't we running plays that we think will work against TX and UofL? Does anyone believe that we'll have enough time for long bombs against those two teams? Boley's plays, to me, looked a lot more likely to be used than Brock's. Does our staff have any clue how to manage a season? Murray had no chance of winning. Why not practice plays we'll need to run the next two weeks: quick outs, screens, short crosses, etc. Throwing bombs is 1) disrespectful to Murray who was so overmatched, 2) unnecessary, and 3) did not prepare us at all for the last two games. Our staff strikes me as having very low football IQ.

I questioned those 2 consecutive long throws by Brock which were under thrown by 5 yards or more. I'm not sure I've ever seen that. Fortunately one turned into a TD for UK. I can understand 1 or 2 yards but the defender had to basically come back to the ball they were so under thrown. I was in section 17 and everyone in my section was saying how in the hell could he be that far off.
