The end around was, I believe, a 7 yard loss and there was at least one pitch in the red zone that lost 5 prior to that. Pretty much every attempt we made at getting the ball outside failed (usually for a loss) and yet they continued calling them.
Logan Justus has a career long of 50. Is that really the time to let him attempt a new career long, particularly given his recent history?
Prevent defense with 7 minutes to go. Sweeps in the red zone for 5+ yard losses every time. Attempting a 52 yarder with a kicker who is 2-6 with a missed PAT over the previous 2 games. Playing extremely conservative on the second-to-last possession when you could seal the win with a score.
He’s right though. Anyone familiar with my posts on the basketball threads knows I’m not quick to blame coaches but this loss falls on them. It was just horribly mismanaged.
A coach can make all the adjustments and give all the instruction in the world and it doesn’t mean s*** if the team doesn’t or can’t execute it. Our fans have no idea what adjustments Miller tried to make but I’m pretty sure his advice wasn’t to abandon the post and start heaving threes. I doubt he asked Armaan to pass him (Miller) the ball. I doubt he suggested that Green start throwing the ball to Arkansas players, etc...
