Eh, the problems we've had all season are still the problems that are ensuring this team won't win the Natty.
Special teams is ass, specifically Sideshow Bob is mega ass. I don't expect college kickers to be automatic from 55+, but how are you 50% on shit from around 40? Inexcusable that he's the best we can trot out there. Punter is also ass. Guarantee you there are some soccer players in Austin that play intramurals that would be better than those two.
Penalties. Team is wildly undisciplined. Seen the offense have drives stall all year long because of a stupid holding penalty or some other fuck up. That's a coaching problem that comes straight from Sark. These things should have been fixed in the spring before the season even started. Instead, we're losing the league title because we never bothered to address it.
Ewers. Dude looks worse than last year. Most un-clutch player I've seen in a long time. Has major problems with his game that neither Sark or any other coaches have bothered to fix. Lazy floater passes. Bad pocket awareness. Self sacking. The list goes on. It feels like we're being held hostage by this Opie looking motherfucker who seemingly doesn't give a fuck whether we win or lose. When is the last time you saw Ewers fired up? Like, selling out on a play, visibly amped up, talking shit to the defense, etc. Dude looks as motivated as the local stoner kid stocking shelves at Walmart. Yeah, he's going to throw a great ball every now and again, but on the whole he's a check down merchant who can't/won't run and will bonehead it up multiple times a game just to make sure he fucks us.
I imagine we can beat a team like Indiana who are complete frauds, but we're never beating this Georgia squad and Quinn and this offense are never beating a legit defense. We've got the #1 defense in the nation which in any other year means we'd be a lock for the Natty. Nope. Not this year.
