best game for us to lose:
1. lost early
2. nonconference
3. probably will lead to some changes for the rest of the year.
Every single goal, including playoffs, is still on the table.

That's how is see it York. We now see what we need to fix, and fix fast. We will not face a set of backs like UGA's again this year until maybe the playoffs. We showed that we can play with them we just need to execute better on offense. Mike Williams catches those balls in the first half we go in with the lead and the second have they are playing catch-up and not running as much as they did. Plus we should never allow a KO return. Spot the ball at the 20 and make their offense go the distance to score. That's isn't going to happen very many times. Go Tigers. Execute and win.

I never thought we would go undefeated,but what troubles me is two weeks from now,and a trip to Tallahassee. Lose that game,as I think we will,and you are outside the top 25 looking in. And,just my opinion,you have to win out,or at least beat USC. A 9-3 record,with losses in the big 3 games sets the program back a solid year.A 10-2 record,with a win over the coots would more than satisfy even the most rabid Clemson fans.

beat us.
UGA may be the best team on our schedule. We should have played much better, especially in the 2nd half. But you have to remember that we are young offensively, and we were on the road in a tough place.
It was closer than the score indicates.
Our young guys have to learn the ramifications of not executing. For example, we catch a few more passes and don't give up the KR, and it's possible we have a 2 touchdown lead in the 2nd half.
They will learn and we will be ready to go the Tally.

Yep, IF we run the table, FSU wins out aside from us, UNC and/or/both Lville have respectable top 25 type seasons, the coots are top 25, and we beat a ranked coastal team in the acccg our SoS will be good and we will be tough to keep out the playoffs assuming there aren't a bunch of undefeated teams.

SCAR will not be in top 25 and the UNC game is a big worry right now. Didn't like the lack of character on display in that 4th quarter. WE have no playmakers and no leadership. Toughness not as good as last year. We miss Shuey. He knew how to explode on people.

UNC is of no worry to me. .. they don't have near the talent we have and it's in the valley. We will beat them by 3 or more td's... I just hope they are ranked when they get to the valley, and then stay ranked through out the year.

Even though I agree with you on all points. I want to know why we just didnt stack the box and make Mason beat us. He didnt have to do anything but hand the ball off. Makes me worry on what BV is doing.

I agree with everything that you said. However I would caution that we could lose another one as well. This team is not good enough at this point to make mistakes against some middle level ACC teams. Overall I am excited about the future but it will be a work in progress.

I swear it wasn't me. I don't TD often and I usually save them to ruin a coot's pulse.

players and talent.
Stoudt was great with time, but pressure made him fold up like a cheap tent. Too slow getting the ball out, little to no movement in the pocket to avoid the rush.
I also worry about our OT's. We arent deep there, and they didn't hold up well against a speed rush.
The dropped passes don't worry me for now, but I do worry that we lack adequate talent on offense.
I think we're good enough to beat most ACC teams, mainly because they mostly suck. Plus, there are no more Gurley's on the schedule.

Perhaps we couldn't have gone 13-0, but I sure didn't want to know about it this soon.
