The comments about offensive scheme are really kind of stupid. We scored a bunch of points and moved the ball in every game except maybe the Georgia game in which were simply outmanned. The offensive and offensive scheme are not why we lost games.

Napier is a good play caller but it's almost impossible to be best HC you can be if you spend that much time on play calling.

I would say Napier's dumbest play call of the year was early in the 2nd Qtr agains UGA on our own 35 yard line with about a 4th and 2. It was a bad call to even go for it that early in the game when it was only a 3 point lead, but then instead of letting Johnson go for it with a short run or Mertz have a quick slant or pass to a back out of the backfield, we called a halfback pass with Etienne throwing it. Plain out stupid. Even if it had of worked, you don't win a game agains Georgia in the 2nd qtr, but you sure as hell can lose one and we did. Dumb.
