Koennings play calling is pathetic. So is special teams. The talents there on offense. There's a reason Koenning hasn't been allowed to call plays elsewhere.

Defense has been stout for the most part. Many times they're working with a 60 yd field or smaller all damn game.

I understand offense has had a long field to work with much of the time as well. First off, you don't pass out of your own damn redzone. Run the ball, runs the clock, gives defense a rest at least. Then open up after you've put some space behind you.

All Koenning could draw up to get out of our offense was:
7 pts in 2nd half vs LT
3 pts in 2nd half vs MTSU
3 pts in 2nd half tonight

I'd make Coach K use a rental car to get back to Birmingham.

All of this. And the offense has talent, it's not like he has nothing to work with there.
