1) Kelly has created a winning culture. From 1997-2009 we lost these games more often than not. I get frustrated with some of his decisions but last night was a hard fought win. Not pretty but considering a true freshman QB, another QB with mobility issues, missing your All American TE, a make shift OL, and a raucous opposing stadium, I will take the “ugly” win.
2) Our QB Room is special. Period. Watch how Pyne and Coan react when Buchner comes to the sideline or when Coan comes over. I will give these three young men credit because if there’s any strife it sure hasn’t showed. Smiles, talking amongst each other learning on the fly, head smacks/hugs. They’re a tight unit regardless of how we may feel about them and kudos to them for the way each one of them have handled it.
3) I really thought Fuentes was making a bad decision to try to get into FG position at the end of the first half. He proved me wrong. I thought it would have been a safer option than risking a late turnover and the Irish getting up two scores. (ND vs Toledo Coan late pic 6). I’m sure he’s being second guessed on three passes at the end of regulation leaving us 2mins and 2 timeouts.
4) Kyren Williams is A Stud. I love his swagger and the way he gives you everything whether it’s running, pass blocking or catching the ball. The TD run was a thing of beauty.
5) Kudos to Jack Coan the last two drives after standing on the sidelines basically 3 quarters. Goolsby has stated we don’t owe him anything in the past because he hasn’t been on the team etc. likewise he coulda mailed it in after Pyne sparking us vs Wisky and Cincy and then Buchner last night.
6) 41yd GWFG in Tallahasee at night after an emotional comeback by F$U and then a 48yd GWFG in Lane Stadium at night, thank you for coming back for another year Doerer.
7) Regardless if you’re a “sunshine pumper” or a “bedwetter” 5-1 with a lot of warts still beats where we could be. Michigan is 6-0, Oklahoma St is undefeated, Kentucky is undefeated and none of them are any closer to winning a Championship than we are with our one loss. My point is it’s all perception, everyone minus Bama/Jawga have glaring issues some of their teams see them and others don’t or they just choose to enjoy the ride. Enjoy winning. ☘️
