SBC Championship Game at Troy discussion

[CoachRob]

I don't ignore people, I liek good dialogue and don't mind opposing views. But snippy statements towards people who don't agree is shallow.

Says the one the with the "elitist" comment. Pot meet Kettle.

Was I wrong? I based my comment on facts, which was the point of what I was saying.

Yes you're wrong, but no argument will you convince of such.

I've read many of your comments. You know what you've said and you know the intent the comments had. It is what it is. I still love all my App brethren.

We can always agree to disagree.
Go Apps!

Good thing is Sumral is probably gone.

[PhillyApp1]

They have better players, just a better team. They dominated the trenches. We look bad upfront. Credit them. Summral took over a program in decline. They are championship quality. We are not.

The coaches better look in the mirror/tape.... we will NOT win another Championship until we change.... its been years and NO change.

Online is small and has been dominated.

I can't blame undersized players

We are NOT ready to WIN against better competition.... its very clear

Recruiting, coaching the same way will get the same results.

We are in an Era of change, adapt or .....

We have a lot of work to do in the offseason.

Need the best coaches in the league to land better jobs.

Whooped at the LOS! Sad

This sums up the entire game.

Get better, win the bowl game.

Thats a plan
Ha e the good coaches go P5 so we can win

Sad that instead of being the best by being the best we are hoping other teams are dragged down to our level

[ah59396]

We got smoked. Not a lot of positive to take away from today. Luckily we get another chance to finish our season strong in our bowl game.

That’s where we are.

Depressing that we've reached the point of hoping other teams lose their coach while trotting out the same program.

App football needs a refresh. Not necessarily meaning coaches, but everything around the program just seems uninspired and stale.

Sometimes you just tip your hat to the better team. They made one mistake and we only get 3 because of silly penalty. We have another false start that stifles a 4th down chance that gives them the ball in which run it down our throat. They took advantage, we didn’t. They were simply better.

[Mjohn1988]

I really don't say stuff like this often, but, I think Troy is a better team than we are this year.

They are, I know some will blame the coaches, but the truth is Troy is the better team. Especially up front on both sides of the ball. The LOS is where it's won or loss, and Troy won the game there today.

I agree
ULL and Troy both grinded App again

I’m not wanting to get into a fire all the coaches thing but who do you blame when an opposing team is that much better than our team? And Summral is only in his 2nd year. He doesn’t even have “ his guys” yet.

[t4pizza]

In every game we lost this year I have been extremely upset because I felt we were the better team but our mistakes cost us the game. Although I am still upset, I really feel like Troy was the much better team. They beat us like a dog in both of the trenches and that is where games are won. Yes, I do feel we did not use our offense like we can, but I am not sure it would have mattered. They just were better than us and deserved to win.

And he took over Troy in a bad spot. Really impressive

There is not anything positive to take from this game. We just got hammered by a much better team. Lick our wounds and hope we get a winnable bowl matchup.

He’s spot on though?

[CoachRob]

Man, watching Troy play really makes me wish we had a go to running back that we can ride for a season. We have not done that since Clark has been our head coach for whatever reason. I think we need to get back to that ideal.

I think Noel is that guy but just hasn't been healthy since the ECU game. I haven't watched enough of Vidal to know how good he is receiving or blocking. But I feel like other than Noel, we haven't had a 'all around' back that can do everything since Evans graduated. It seems every back we have are good, but is a weakness to their game in some fashion. For example, Roberts seemed to struggle with the pass protection tonight. I'm not in the coaches meetings or at practice, but maybe we rotate backs according to strengths. However, that can make an offense predictable if there is a tendency based on which back is in.

Now this is more of a guess as I have zero inside knowledge. But is a possibility of the issue.

We’ve got backs. What we don’t have is an Oline that opens holes like Troy’s. Does anyone think for a moment that Vidal would be the POY behind our line?
