Him not using the TEs may cause Njoku to leave early. UNC gave us the blueprint on how to expose FSU's defense and we didn't follow any rule except for going up-tempo.

they learned nothing from that, not enough 1st downs to maintain a hurry up. they never looked out of place, and subbed alot when we switched sets. failed at alot of Football 101 shyt

Njoku is gonna have shytty stats, but all it takes is workouts anyway look at how little Jimmy played. i wouldnt quite put David on that Jimmy/Winslow level of ability but hes a tier below that, and is getting used poorly

Sad :francis:

At least the defense came to play though our lack of recruiting or better yet speed is evident. No way Carter would be a starting S at any major P5 school unless they had the players hide his weaknesses.

he had Auburn/Bama etc. offers, just cant play. its more mental with him, he wants to be Brandon Meriweather without the ball skills or consistent tackling. he wants to blow up every play game dont work like that

Colbert is trying his best, we knew corner was light it wasnt really bad toinght at all except some wrong guesses by him guarding Bobo. love Redwine, love Elder they played their asses off, they werent ready to be on the field that long which again goes back on the O

playcalling specifics.

It was extremely odd to randomly see us go to Marquez Williams' I-Form late in the game. Then, later in that possession or perhaps a series later, we went Coker-T (2TE and FB). We ran each time. This was essentially what Coach Richt used to "stabilize" the offense? It was really odd, didn't have a positive effect, and we immediately went back to spread sets and trips.

My point is we saw legitimate grab bag behavior and it's a cause for concern in the upcoming games. There will be lots of speculation around why we did things the way we did against FSU. Honestly, I don't have great answers. We used almost all the formations I had seen and expected. We used a lot of the plays I hadnt yet seen in the first 4 games. Unfortunately, they didn't have much rhyme or rhythm.

I think the Tempo is currently forced. If you're out of rhythm, why continue to go no huddle? You're only hurrying a bad result.

Breh Richt play calling and style that he runs will be a big concern going forward, he calls a lot of basic plays(especially the run). He either got to change his play style and calling or bring in a OC that will.
We need to steal Jedd Fisch back from Michigan.
Naw get Ken Dorsy as OC, I bet he put this offense in they're full potential.

Richt play calling was too fukking conservative it made me wanna pull my hair out! Dude did not want to attack them at all. FSU secondary could've been abused all game but we really held back.

That int by kaaya was the momentum changer felt it sucked the energy out of the stadium. Kaaya has no pocket awareness man dude just stays put!

The refs really fukked us with that "holding" and the "targeting" calls those two plays were game changers.... The crowd let the refs know they were shytty too! Everyone began to throw bottles on the field:wow: it clear them dumbass refs had an agenda though
