Re: [gatortalk] anybody watching? your take.

I see it a little differently (as to offense/defense). While I am certainly disappointed with the long runs, this is a very hard offense to defend against. GS gained over 300 yards and scored 21 points against Alabama in 2011. Alabama's defense was ranked #1 in the nation at the time and went on to win the BCS championship. The difference was that Alabama scored 45 points on offense, so the game was never in question. Sometimes, your offense needs to go win a game for you. 

If this were an SEC team, we might be able to make the third string offense argument, but that just doesn't fly here. There is no player on their team who would have received an offer from Florida, so our third string should be better than their first string. That's why we pay them half a million dollars to come get beat up by us. 

But here's the real clincher. We weren't playing against their first string. They have lost 19 players to injury this year, and they only have a 70 man roster, so they were more beat up than we were, in both total numbers and by percentage of their team. 

We were soundly beaten, on both sides of the ball, by a team with zero 3-star recruits that had lost more players to injury than we have. Yet again, we were beaten by a freshman QB. We are all out of excuses. 

I do completely agree that we lost this game because of coaching, but I put it on both sides. The offensive game calling was pathetic. We'll never know if our offense could have won this game for us, because they were never given a chance to.

I have had some time to reflect.  I am more disappointed with our defense than our offense.  I don't expect much with a fourth string qb with a second and third string offensive line.  We lost the game yesterday because of coaching, especially on defense.  We should never be giving up such long runs.

Muschamp was a project and Foley threw the dice and took a chance.  Last year it looked pretty good until the team seemed to give up in the bowl game.  I bet Foley is on the phone with some feelers out to some of the top coaches.  To save the recruiting class we will need to get a top coach.  If none are available, I think we have to wait.  

I don't think we can take a chance on an assistant coach like Kirby Smart.  We need a headliner. Perhaps O'Brien at Penn State?

I think if there is a coaching change, the earliest it might be is after signing day.  There needs to be a big change in the assistant coaches.

...that's exactly what Mark May and the other guy in ESPN said right after they showed the final 2 clips. They both agreed that Foley has no choice but to fire Champ and that this is humiliation loss for UF. Holtz was the only one that disagreed.

Wow, this is unbelievable. I'm reconsidering the things I said last week about giving Muschamp another year. I just don't see any excuse for this. These guys can recruit, but they simply cannot develop our players or call a good game. It may be time to cut our losses. If the message we send to prospective coaches is that we have unrealistic expectations, because we expect them to beat FCS teams when we play them, then so be it.

Yeah, I'm watching. I'm pretty much depressed about it, though. We're just so bad. I'm watching all these snippets of games during half time, and it doesn't matter what the game is or what team has the ball... every other team looks like they know what they're doing with the ball. We just look like we have no idea what to call, as coaches, or how to execute, as players. I don't know how any team can be this bad.
