We have the best receiver corp in the conference. Not a lot of pressure on Chase. What are we doing.

Yeah somebody needs to text ponce and remind him Armanti is not playing QB for us anymore. He could have pulled that off but not Brice.

I’m watching La line up for a kickoff. They have one guy on the right. Wouldn’t be upset if we tried an onside but nope

Really not in love with this “play not to lose” brand of football we are offering as a program. Bit us in the butt in Miami and we seem to be replicating it.

Well, at least we are only down by 14 and we held them scoreless in the second half. Guess that is a silver lining.

And the braves won. So at least one team I like can win.

Ponce play calling in the first half tonight at critical moments has been worse than Peterson from last year....Just tonight. Ponce has been great this year up until the first half of this game.

I won't say it has been worse than Peterson but it is in the same ball park for sure. Just bad play calling.

2.7 yds per rush and 140 yds total offense. God awful. Something has to change drastically.

At what point do we incorporate a true dual threat QB into this style of offense? I'm not saying Armanti 2.0, but at least someone who can take it and run when the pocket collapses or there is nothing open, or a QB we can run a legit read option with...I've asked this for years as I've seen defenses crowd the box and defensive ends crashing knowing a QB keep on the read likely won't happen.
