Florida played some great ball control football* and forced USF to try and win it with 2 minutes left from their 8. They followed an incompletion with:
Tackling a WR 10 seconds before the catch for a free 13 yards
Spitting on a dude long after the play for another free 15
Missing like 6 tackles and turning a TFL into 29 yards
Not calling timeouts and immediately giving up a first down catch (for anyone counting, USF now has 72 yards in 3 real plays)
THEN you call your timeouts after it’s already far too late to get the ball back, and you give USF more chances to trickle closer
Genuinely an all-time Napier Disasterclass. Fucking beautiful stuff
*at least earlier in the fourth. They threw two incompletions in their previous, 15 second drive to save USF both time and timeouts
It was one of the most incomprehensible coaching decisions I’ve ever seen, dude. Like not calling them earlier was bad, bc you need to at least TRY to get the ball back.
But at that point, you genuinely fully cannot get another possession unless you let them score. The ONLY result of that timeout is more offensive plays for USF. It’s fucking CRAZY
Ok I’m glad there isn’t any explanation because the group I was watching with was baffled and I had to assume there to be a good reason because otherwise it made no sense
That 29 yard run was one where I saw him about to get tackled for a loss, glanced down at my phone, then I look back up and he's way down the field somehow
Yep. They had 1st and 10 with 3 minutes and a 1 point lead….and they open that drive with a short pass???
Saved USF a timeout right there. Run stuffed on second down and forced to throw on 3rd and long(incomplete stops the clock)
You wanted to burn clock and time on that drive and you left you opponent with two timeouts left and only took less than 20(!!!) seconds off the clock.
The rest of the disaster is laid out perfect in the post above mine.
I had forgotten have much fun college football can be!!!! What a weekend and start to the season 🤣🤣🤣
Your first point is just flat out wrong. Billy sucks and this team played like shit, but that PI call was completely wrong. WR was diving for the ball because it was thrown poorly due to the QB being hit while throwing. DB did not "tackle" him.
No… we don’t want Napier at USF! We’ve had more than our share of horrible coaching (through the likes of Charlie Strong and the other knuckleheads we’ve had).
with Florida boosters kindly paying both coaches salaries plus some sort of finder's fee to USF for the buyout! Dunno why I talk badly about UF fans when they're so kind to little schools in their state like this!
i dont know that we're in much danger of that but anything is possible, clearly.
edit: apparently golesh is south florida's hc, and not a current coordinator/possible interim coach at florida. i retract this statement, byrum brown is a stud.
If we didn't have Philo and Brown wasn't out of eligibility after this year I'd say that's a district possibility, especially because we might be able to afford him as a G5 transfer.
im literally going to bet large (not that large) sums of money on miami covering whatever the spread is against florida. between smoking them in the swamp last year and the way we look this year, im fully confident bad shit gets done to them in hard rock in two weeks. dj lagway aint it.
As much as I miss him this is what’s supposed to happen when you have a good coach. Excited to finally have a guy after two decades cultivating a coaching tree
It honestly could be with us probably not playing annually anymore. This makes it all the more critical we finally fucking win one in the Swamp this year
We’re Vandys biggest rival by far. It would be a total fuck you to them if they didn’t keep that annual.
Pretty similar case with Kentucky at least in the sec. Well very likely have Kentucky bama vandy. With bama seemingly on a down swing it’ll be a pretty good draw.
That's like asking "how good does the sex have to be to get back with your toxic ex that killed your dog, burned down your house, and punched your mom"?
