Roof’s worst performance

I’ve never seen a d line get so caught up by the O-line as ours. They run straight to the guy in front of them and lock up. They are using swim moves, spins, or anything else to try to get to the backfield. It’s been immensely frustrating.

Edit- should say are not using.

I think I’ve said it every week — what happened to KeShaun after his freshman year??!! I thought we had Derrick Morgan v2. Wtf happened to 4* Anree Saintamoor?? Vic Alexander is a nice player but i expected more. SSigh.
 
I’ve tried looking at this from a few different angles this morning and I just can’t come up with any reason why a team that lost to friggin Army was able to decimate our defense.

The kids have played decently overall on defense this year, so I think their poor performance against Duke can only be blamed on the coaches not getting them ready to play and not being able to adjust during the game.

Hopefully this will light a fire for COFH. The good news is that UGA doesn’t run a spread option. The bad news is that they will be trying to hit the outside with their running game the way Duke did.

The bad news is they can easily gash us for chunks on the ground and kill us with short slants and crossers. This uga team has the feel of Joe Cox 2009 with better running backs and a better defense. öööö Joe cox and öööö Jason fromm.

For anyone who says our D looks better this year, consider the offenses we've faced this year fell off pretty considerably compared to last year.

Points per game (national ranking in brackets). First set of numbers is 2016. Second is from this year.

Clemson 39 [14], 32 [38]
Pitt 40 [10], 25 [91]
VT 35 [33], 32 [46]
Duke 23 [111], 23 [101]
UNC 32 [44], 23 [107]
UVA 23 [115], 25 [85]
Miami 34 [37], 32 [39]
Tennessee 36 [24] , 20 [119]

Roof still sucks.

Or maybe a bunch of teams' defenses got better.

It is Roof's best defense. And probably the best defense we've had since CPJ got here.

I'd put 2008 ahead of them, just because I don't see any way that that defensive line allows Duke to score 43 points. That team didn't give up more than 20 in a game until late October, and didn't give up 30+ until the last two games.

It's probably the best since then, though, not that that's anything to brag about.

It was all strategy to give UGAg a certain look for their gameplan, CPJ is genius. He planned on losing to motivate the players.... its all part of the plan ....it's happening!!! :facepalm::lolfacepalm::bigcry:
 
This has to be one of the top 3 most disappointing losses in the CPJ era, and the worst performance in Roof's tenure here. I am very much a Roof-supporter and a luke-warm CPJ backer, but I have zero defense for either guy. I guess everyone has a bad day at the office once in a while but this is a program damaging loss where alumni/boosters become completely disinterested in the product and could care less about the rest of the season.

Pretty much this, if we get destroyed Saturday and Uga ascends in the coming years as we continue to regress - whoa buddy

No. Most schools on that list lost either their NFL caliber QB or 3 to 4 year starter so the offenses in the conference took a step back. The ACC had some incredible QB talent last year.
