Yeah, it's pretty easy to sell playing time to a freshman when you are just a mediocre team versus them getting playing time at 'bama or other good schools.
It's hard to argue with the "choker" label. Another disappointing loss. It looked like we were poised to win and then got conservative on defense and put no pressure on the QB when they had to travel the length of the field and score a TD to force the OT. I'm a fan of Todd Grantham but think he may have played the defense too conservatively at the end of regulation. He's still young so hopefully he'll learn from any mistakes made. It's just my opinion but I don't think the Head Coach inspires confidence and gets the boys pumped up at crucial times. Certainly room for improvement.

All you had to do was look at the difference between the two sidelines before OT to see there was nobody getting our guys pumped up. Seeing them just standing around made me feel they had already lost.
The SMART era CONTINUES!!!!!!

A tired D is a tired D. You can only do so much with a terrible O.
I just can't understand why Bobo insists on running it up the middle with a 170 pound back when running a 200 plus back in the same spot hasn't worked the entire game. Bobo needs to GoGo!
