obviiusly a lot of negatives today. But 3 things specifically irritated me today.

-In the first half when we were driving and we get a first down around the 30 with 36 seconds left, clock stops for chains to move. We then allow 8 seconds to run off the clock before using a timeout. We ended up scoring, but that is inexcusable. Either spike it, run a play, or cal an immediate timeout. You can't let 8 valuable seconds run off the clock in that instance.

-punting on fourth and 5 from the 37. Gained just over 25 yards of field position. You either kick the field goal or go for it. We had all the momentum. Defense was playing lights out. You go for points in that situation.

-lastly, the play near the end of the game before the fumble. We get a nice 15-20 yard gain and a player comes in late, about 10 yards away from the ball in the middle of the field and illegally blocks an NC st player who wasn't even involved in the play resulting in a 15 yard personal foul penalty and 2 and 14 or something.

-I guess 4. On the kickoff when they fumbled. In a cluster like that you need to just jump on the ball. Too many bodies around to try and pick it up and run with it. Just fall on the ball in that situation. Undisciplined play, story of our season
 
We did call a play. Gulley lined up wrong and after trying to get in the right place with AJs help, we called time. Better than running the play with the wrong formation.

Ahhhhh, TV didn't show Any of that. Basically zoomed in on Aj signalling and then a whistle blowing 8 seconds after starting, signaling a timeout. Didn't show the formation or anything. Makes a little more sense now. Still not acceptable on PTG's account. But I figured it was delay getting play in or deciding on what to do.
