So what was the defensive call on the play before when the Qb ran for 24 yards?Quote:

One thing to note, in both close J'Mar games against the SEC ( Ark &USCar) we lost by 1pt and our clutch kicker missed a field goal with the winning points early in the game.
Not a criticism of Barnes, but an interesting coincidence
While terribly bummed initially, I'm happy that we actually played a decent game.
We did play well, except for a few plays. I can assure you no one is more bummed than the coaches and players. We are 2-2 on the season, where most realistic fans figured we would be at this point in the season. Go Dawgs keep working and improving!Quote:

If you throw on one of those plays 2 of the 3 things that can happen are bad, an incomplete pass to stop the clock or an interception. This is the type of game is one that we need to win to finally reach that 10 win regular season plateau. We played well enough to win, but had mistakes throughout the game the kept us from having a two possession lead in the 4th. We had the breaks turnovers and missed fg by SC, but we weren't able to make the plays needed to win. I'm sick to my stomach, but that is a team loss. Offense could have converted the fumble into points, defense was a second away from making a sack and interception, but weren't able to. We had a lead in an SEC stadium with under a minute, at some point it's on the players to make a play. If we don't get the two big sacks on D in the 4th last week, we are having this convo then as well.
I'll be surprised if we don'tQuote:

Mrs OLDBLUE says we should never take the lead in a game before the 4th Q. HMMMMMM :D
I think it was Gregg Allman who sang that you can't lose what you ain't never had.Quote:
