I thought we were going to win

when Burnett picked up that lateral. Good teams find a way to win, are prepared for good fortune--and conversely, teams such as the recent renditions of the Yellow Jackets, do just enough to lose. We played hard, just not effectively. I give that credit to our game plan--whatever it was. I still can't really decipher what it was we were setting out to accomplish. Must be double secret, stealth NFL stuff.
 
I though the game plan was to be very balanced, Ugag was expecting us to run until the wheels came off but we tried to pass a lot however there were a few instances where I found the playcalling/personnel a little odd like:

- On the series leading to our last field goal we ran to the right on every first down, the mutts picked up on it and on the last two first down runs they really stuffed us.

- Leaving Nesbitt in the game with for a clear third down passing play in which he threw the pick. Should've given Booker a chance there.

- After Stafford's pass to S.Bailey for 55 yards we seemed to drop the lb's in coverage and/or keep the safeties deep, that's when the Thomas Brown runs came (33 and 34 yd TD run). Don't know if I would've done anything different since those bastards are a very balanced team.

-Also was it just me or did Tater really locked on to his primary targets on the last series going into the half? If he had looked for secondary reads we might have at least kicked a shorter FG.

Tru dat. We had 3 chances for cheap turnover TDs and didn't convert any single one.
 
When the call came for the third time that what appeared to be an easy TD for us had gone the other way, it was one of the most drained feelings I've ever had.
 
I really had a good feeling before the game started...I mean, I was actually pretty sure we were gonna pull it out....Its been one of those years where the unexpected happens...Just not us I guess...Six years ago we stopped attacking uga on offense. Its like we turned into a counter-punch type of mentality instead of taking to their ass with everything we have...We lose an awful lot this year especially on D and the mutts return pretty much everything, so next year is probably gonna be worse..When will this **** end???
