_ You obviously know nothing about coaching. Or playing college football

Maybe not .. But what was your prediction for the game? Did the game end any differently than predicted? I would also suspect that the first half went just a little different than expect. Maybe, since your a great coach. Resume please! The Athletic department may need it at the end of the year.

You guys always talk about adjustments at halftime unless you are in the locker room we have no idea what is said and done in there. And what adjustments would any of you make we were up 21-17 at halftime things seem to be working pretty good. So at that point why would you make adjustments just keep on keeping on. When the third quarter started and they scored three times really quick ok now adjust on the fly. The guys did play hard and like said earlier we got beat by a better team and got beat by the score most of us would have thought. Does Bustle need to go I think so but last night we just got beat by a better football team.

A voice of reason!
Halftime adjustments are a weak tool fans use to badmouth a coach. No one here was in the locker room so no one knows what really happened. I thought the adjustment OSU made was to stay the course and stop turning the ball over. Our adjustment looked to be forget the run b/c it was not working and keep throwing the ball.

As the OSU WR said after the game, they made NO adjustment during halftime. They just starting executing better.
A much fairer coaching complaint would be the Wildcat "package" with Gautier. Running a WR in motion from different sides but the QB ALWAYS GOING UP THE MIDDLE, is not a good playcall. You have to mix it up.

OHHH NOOOOOO we lost to the #22 team in the nation (top 5 in offense) by 28. FIRE BUSTLE B/C WE SHOULD'VE WON THAT GAME!!!! (<-sarcasm) God some of you sound so stupid right now...We lost to a team who is just simply better than us. And we played a hell of a game. Hell, we were down by only 13 at the end of the 3rd. Depth of the cowboys took over. Get over it guys. The players played their hearts out. The coaches prepared well for the game. I will say that once again bustle failed to make ANY adjustments at half but hey we fought in the 3rd quarter and hung with them. even after they went and scored 13 unanswered points to start the half. All in all, I dont have too many complaints in this game.

Good post. I'm just not sure about the adjustments part. It appeared to me that they were just better...faster...stronger...and deeper...and they simply wore us down. I don't think "adjustments"would have made any difference.

You act like this is a little problem that can be easily overcome. This a HUGE problem. Sure the players played hard. Nobody said they didn't, but if the coaches continue to make zero adjustments at halftime, the players' hard work is not going to be enough when we play halfway decent competition.

Please specify theses "adjustments" that you and others always mention. You sound so knowledgable that I'd like to hear them. We're waiting.

No - - we were lucky to score 7 points - getting outscored 37 - 7 when you have all of the momentum going into half isn't a moral victory. you might be ready to bustle up, but i'm ready to Bustle out !!!! This is bad coaching - -period !!

Please specify what you would have done differently.

Thanks.

Up until this post, the decibal level on stupidity had gone through the roof.I agree with you completely. I'm proud of the effort from these guys last night. They played hard, they played well and we got great contributions from a lot of young guys. Our receivers didn't drop passes and made plays. The line blocked really well considering the injury situation and the defense held OK. State to its lowest yardage total of the year next to the A&M game. Our offense was able to sustain long drives and keep their offense off the field much of the first half and we led the field position battle. They had to get huge production from their all american players to beat us and if you couldn't see the physical advantage they had over us, then you weren't at the same game I was. All I heard ( and thought myself) after the UGA game was we didn't even compete and didn't put up a good showing even though we didn't truly expect to win yet we did exactly that and more this game and people still can't see it. In the end, its a loss and we had 5 more defensive players go down to injury last night including Grant Fleming and Maurice Rolle. However, I'm proud of this team and the way they played and I'm extremely proud of the buzz and crowd that showed up as it made it a true collegiate atmosphere.

When u can't rush the football, and u have zero vertical passing game, u will be in for a long nite. We are not a real hard team to defend....take away the screen game, and make us run the ball, and u beat us. Plain and simple

I agree on the running game. However, what was James Butler's touchdown catch if not vertical? I saw many passes that were beyond 10 yards and in case you didn't see it, the OK. State safeties were playing over the top and the CB's were giving the underneath routes which is what we took and we were successful in doing it.
