Those of us, and we know who we are, knew there would be games like that from a freshmen QB. Especially his first road game,against a team the quality of Cincinnati coached by a guy like Tuberville.
What's inexcusable is what had me spitting bile on Saturday, was how bad our defensive secondary got beat with fundamentals. Defend the pass first. It's also tough for a first time head coach, with limited play calling experience, and deficient in coaches on the offensive side, to recognize that sticking with the run, even though we were down 27-3 at half, would have been a good idea.
He's looked though,a nd he knows it, but now he's got to demonstrate learning from it. They all do. Players and coaches.
