The execution and communication on this team is horrible

    Speaking of clock management, did anyone notice the extra 4-5 seconds that ticked of the clock after our last 1st Down? I would have expected that if we were at Auburn, but not at home.

    I can hear it now: "If we play like that next year we're going to start out 0-1".

    First, i am Thrilled with the win! Amazing second half. (first, eh...) Flynn came out and played the game of his career in that second half.
    There was interference. i was second row, right where Demetrius caught the game winning TD. At the time of the catch, being that he caught it, i didn't care at all. I was busy dogpiling and falling down a few rows of stands. Looking back however, i was a little angry it wasn't called. If that ball was not caught, extra yardage would have really helped Colt

    i have to disagree, there looked to be much confusion. i see a couple of you said there were a few more seconds run off (see above as to why i didn't see that). But matt was standing around, seemingly waiting for someone to call a time out. Either they though CTT was going to, or waiting for something from miles....?? Then all of a sudded it almost looked like panic and he jumped to the ball and went for it all. From everything that i saw, it did not at all look like that play was designed to go down to the wire like that.




    Regardless, this tiger team (O and D) was firing on all cylinders. Things were clicking. and they were playing up to the potential that i believe they should. Flynn was hitting the WR. the WR were making the catches (with maybe an exception or two), and the D was stout. I LOVE DOUCET BEING BACK!!

    I am happy for a win but I have to agree with you to some point. The winning TD with 1 sec left on the clock was cutting it close. What happens if it were incomplete? Incomplete pass stops the clock right? Well that was just pure luck on the coaches part. I can only emagine how Tigers fans would of felt like if we were out of time and within kicking range. He tells media that we had 16 seconds left. What clock was he looking at. Who are the clock keepers. They are in the press box but what were they thinking. Did Flynn stay in the pocket to long? Was Flynn watching the clock or did he even care? I don't know. I say it was luck, because if we would of lost Les would be in a heap of trouble with the fans.
