ATHENS — Mike Leach sounded very much like a man who figured out how to beat No 1-ranked Georgia but didn’t have the team capable of executing the plan.

Not to mention a loss to an average FSU team also..
That has to be the worst post game coaches interview and article I’ve ever read.
wow!
Since we are going down this trail, let’s continue….
if Tyler Simmons hadn’t been called offsides.
if Todd Gurley would have signed that memorabilia today.
if AJ Green hadn’t been out 4 games
If Saunders woulda covered DeVonta
Need I go on?
nothing to read here. Just another dominant win by the dawgs, tho they really should clean up those turn overs.
go dawgs!
Mike Leach is a pirate, but he also is a good football coach as boorish and awkward as he comes across ... I don't even think he's that funny. But his team was chippy, and UGA did get a couple of calls -- I think State got one, too, on that roughing the punter -- that should not have been 15 yards!
@Vetdawg
LOL!
If my aunt had...
Well, sure, I guess if they had scored four more touchdowns than they did. Four is a few.
The one big thing I take from this is this, leach has a point about us with the run. We could not keep them out of the backfield. Had a very Missouri game feel to it. As much improvement as we've shown on the offensive line, it looked like we took 2 steps back this game. Yeah, no sacks, but a lot more pressure than we should've and have been allowing lately. Also evident of why we had to go for the passes before the half, because our run game was non-existent up to that point.
Leach.....go home relax, sleep on it and you will clearly see no way would MS have beaten UGA! UGA was too strong even with miscues. Another year, another time.....maybe. Move on.
Sheesh. If only we didn't get stopped on three fourth down attempts; If only we didn't get stopped at the goal line. If only, if only, if only... Well, those things happened because Georgia was the better team, period. All of that "if only" is just like poker. If only my card had come, I would have taken that big pot."
If a frog had wings…
"IF" MS St had converted those 4th down plays AND IF they would've scored TD's then MAYBE they would've been in the game. Maybe. And if "if's" and "but's" were candy and nuts we'd all have a Merry Christmas.
Mike Leach may be a good football coach. Maybe. But that is all he is. He is not the CEO of an elite college program. Apparently really good CFB coaches are hard to find. MS St should be embarrassed to trot Mike Leach out as one of the most visible faces of their institution.
OR losing puts them out. It puts a rematch w/TN (on a neutral field) one step closer.
Maybe he needs to recruit better players.
Haha, yeah, that's pretty **** of Leach to say those things. I'm sorry, but you just give off a "loser vibe" when you say things like that.
Did MS put up a good fight? Sure. Did they miss out on some big plays? Yeah. Did some penalties not work in their favor? Yeah. Did they EVER have a real shot of beating Georgia? No. Heck, the TD they got from the punt was about as against-the-odds as you can get and so take that away and we would've had backups in by 3rd/4th Quarters.
