I think we keep Buster at least one more year

many things still piss me off about that game, obviously. But, I just don’t understand how we can’t have any go to plays inside the 5 on 4th and gotta have it. I know we do and we got defended well, sure, but damn. Can’t get 3 yards in 7/8 tries or 1 yard in 1 try? Hard to accept still.

The only thing that somewhat comforts me (and it's really not a comfort) is that U[sic]GA did almost just as bad. We both failed on five out of the first six tries (first ot was just xp.).

So it's not something we did uniquely wrong. I think maybe it's just tougher for gassed, out of rhythm offenses who have to walk 80 yards after every play than it is for defenses.

Goal line offense is hard. The back of the endzone is a helluva 12th defender.

Perhaps an OL weakness?

In the 7th OT, the play King got stuffed looked to be a designed QB keeper with Singleton coming in motion as eye candy.

But ugag was crashing the middle hard for nearly all of the OTs - if he hands that to Singleton, he's still running, and we win. The edges were very vulnerable as they were overplaying the middle hard. Singleton is beating any of them to the edge.

I think he could have tossed to Haynes FTW
