I wanted to be on the Jim Knowles train. He got the defense playing better than last year, for sure. But he cost us this game.
In the two biggest games of the year Jim Knowles defense vs Michigan and Georgia.
87 points
1063 yards
1 turnover
38 points given up in the 4th quarter.
Scoring plays given up of 69, 75, 45, 75, 85, 25, 76 yards.

Yeah, Ransom fell down. It was crap forced by a stupid play call. Stop doing what's working and put the safety in a bad position and whooops... we got a TTUN type big play.
Why plan man free up 11. Zone has been working and playing a hell of a half. Make them earn every yard and keep it all in front of you.

I am not sure we should give him a year 2. We probably will. Maybe he deserves it. But anyone can have a defense beat NW and Rutgers. He is paid to beat TTUN and not eff up games like this.
This sucks.
CJ played his best game. They let him loose. I hope Day learned from this game. Play to win (one scared call to run at the end was dumb).
THANK YOU CJ. It's not your fault we have Don Brown coaching defense.
Marvin was injured on targeting. Helmet to helmet. WTF do these refs see? He didn't concuss himself. Shades of 2019 Clemson. Sigh.
