If you think they got the same effort from Mizzou in week one that we got from them tonight in a SEC game, then you are wrong.

Well, that's certainly a provable opinion, backed up by stats and figures.
As a matter of fact, I think it's the perfect argument to sum up your defense of Satterfield. Other teams just try harder against us.
Well, Georgia scored fewer TDs than LT too. Guess you think their offensive is better than Georgia's too.
Georgia scored more than Tech.
Even including garbage points.
And did I say that their offense is better? Or that it's embarrassing they scored more than we did on Missouri?

Just like I'm seeing with Satterfield this year, now that he has a 5 star RB, a 4 star TE, and a Heisman contender qb.
Only 2, because of a bunch of field goals. Fewer TDs. So I guess you put LT offense on about the same level as Georgia's.
That was a pathetic, listless, lackluster performance. It was a complete failure to launch. And I'll tell you something else, if Beamer makes heroic efforts to save Satterfield's job, he will wind up losing his own. We can't go on with this kind of unreliability.
Agreed. If Beamer wants to be the ceo type coach, he needs to make the moves when his staff has a weak spot. Otherwise, he's not really being the ceo type coach either.
We played a very good defense and struggled against them, like just about everyone they have played. Spurrier had some terrible offensive games early in his tenture. Anybody that thought the offense was suddenly going to be top 25 or top 40 was dreaming. If it's going to happen, it will take a while.
That would sound nice if we didn't score less than EVERY team on their schedule so far. Including ooc patsies and Vanderbilt.
Ridiculous. Were you ready to fire Spurrier in season 3 when he scored 6 against Vandy? Or 7 against Georgia and 6 against Florida in season 4?
He's got a point. Satterfield has all the credibility that spurrier had at that time, and should be afforded the same leeway.
/s
Spurrier took over a much better situation that Beamer. So yes, Beamer and staff should get some leeway.
Not sure who you think is going to come here and suddenly make our offense amazing, or even good.
Beamer and staff may get some leeway, but not nearly as much as Spurrier earned. They aren't in the same league as him when it comes to earned leeway.
yeah, and look how long it took Spurrier to get it going here.
So, who do you think we are going to bring in with the level of credibility as Spurrier?
Does the person need to have the credibility of Spurrier?
I merely pointed out that he has boatloads more than anyone on this staff.
And how long did it take him to get it going here? And our offense was never what you would consider really great.
Tell me who is going to come here and how long you are willing to give them. We've seen someone who is considered one of college football's greatest offense minds take a long time to get it going here.
So, you think it doesn't have to be someone with the credibility of Spurrier, but demand that they turn it around faster than he did? Like a year or two?
Delusional.
Delusional.
And he earned that extra leeway to get it going with his past successes.
This staff does not have that to lean on.
That depends on your definition of "turn it around". I'd settle for fielding an aggressive offense that looks like it knows what it's doing for starters.
Mizzu's defense took away our edge game and our defense gave Mizzu's offense the edge all day and that was the difference in the ball game. Satterfield is unable to adapt to what are the strengths of our personnel and instead asks our personnel to do things that are not their strengths. Things will not change until Satt accepts reality and modifies our offense. We have relied on special teams and big play turnovers for much of our scoring.
Do you think Spurrier scores more than 10 points with the players we have on offense? I certainly do.
I am not stupid enough to believe that we should be world beaters at this point. Satterfield returned his offensive line. On paper, upgraded the QB, TE, and WR positions. However, we are no more productive than last year. The fact we can’t get plays in, the players often look confused (one even said so publicly), we can’t seem to call things that are quick (finally did with the screens, but then never ran anything complementary), nor underneath is incomprehensible.
I do not recall many games this year were the tv crew was complementary of our offense. Almost to a man, they sound like they believe we should be better on offense. In fact, they seem to often be in disbelief how bad we are.
No, I don't think Spurrier necessarily scores more. Saw a lot of sh***y offensive football under Spurrier in the early years. 6 points against Vandy is one example.
Satterfield has all the credibility Spurrier had at that time?! What are you smoking? Spurrier changed the SEC with his offense prowess. Could draw up plays in the dirt and run circles around people. Also won just a few games at UF, a NC, and bred a Heisman QB. Your statement is ignorant. Even the announcers are at a loss for words watching Satterfields offense. They used the word inexcusable multiple times today.
You really need to wake up.
The "/s" was to denote sarcasm. I'm making fun of the guy who thinks Satterfield should be given the same leeway as Spurrier.
I really need a way to highlight that sarcasm better.
He also did not have the talent (on paper) that Satt has. He took a four star QB, a former HS QB, and and a 3 star WR and rewrote a lot of our receiving records.
I do not give our D a pass, but I do believe for the most part they play to their ability. I also believe White can make adjustments (may work sometimes, may not). I do not believe Satterfield can. It is the coaches job to make adjustments to make the players successful. Rattler’s pocket presence is terrible. You fix that by quick passes. Even when it is clear we are getting a blitz, we never have routes that replace the blitzer. Our offensive line struggles at times with protection, but we never run inside screens or the quick passes to slow it down.
I just can’t wrap my head around your rationale when we only scored 10 points, had a ton of 3 and outs, had a bad PI call that took away a turnover and ended up in points instead, and gave them a short field more than once.
Do you really think we should ride with Satterfield?
Rattler himself just threw Satterfield under the bus with a quote. If that doesn’t tell you something then I don’t know what will. It’s not just being anemic on offense due to lack of talent; it’s scheme, play calling, and execution. If you can’t see that for your own eyes then you haven’t been watching football for very long.
True: but in more fairness / if he keeps running right he walks in by the pylon. - Instead he cuts straight up field into 3 defenders and dives (risking yet another fumble) It's absolutely maddening to watch him do this same stuff every week.
