Loeffler Presser

So, Coach Loeffler had his presser today.  Here are a few of the more interesting observations.

He said the offense was atrocious in the first half.  Also, the snap on the punt was "disappointing."

What was positive is that in previous years we would have folded, but in this case we stuck with it and at least completed.

Usually a game comes down to 3-4 players, but he said there were 12-14 plays where BG had the chance to make it interesting and just failed.

On the Broden fumble, he did everything right, "eye to the tuck, high and tight" but wasn't strong enough to protect the ball from the older UT defenders.

"We need to get into the weight room."

He was by and large complimentary of how Broden played.

McDonald was one count behind all night.  Coach says he is better than that, but no excuses, he was not effective.

Just to know what's in coach's head when he isn't translating things for the fans, here is a verbatim description of the first pick.

We were in a 3 x 1 bunch they brought a 3-fire zone.  It was Sam/Will off the edge.  We picked it up.  Matt came off the bounce, off a quick five...had good body position.  He tried to fit it through the middle vertical on the 2/3 match player on the backside.  He made the right read and threw it behind him.

Second INT, we gave up a QB hit when they rushed three and we had 7 guys blocking, it was a TD for Broden if we can make the throw. Obviously, can't let the QB get hit in that situation.
