My thoughts exactly. What the fuck is yelling at the ref gonna do? That’s pathetic actually.

This definitely wasn’t a no fault situation of “when assholes collide.”

BK kept his starters in, and was chucking deep passes down 42-6 with a few minutes left.

He wanted to keep playing football, and pushed the issue. Bama responded by continuing to play football.

Most coaches run the clock out as a courtesy to BOTH teams and GTFO as quickly as possible.

I see why Deboer might have been annoyed the clock kept stopping in a 36 point game that was approaching midnight as it was being finished, furthering the risk of a meaningless and unneeded injury.

Coaches can do whatever they want, but BK’s M.O. has always been “I like to act gangster, until it’s time to actually do gangster shit, then I just whine.”

This is when the real fun begins. The walls have completely closed in on him, and he has nowhere to go.

Expect many article this week about how he lost the team, players coming forward about his arrogance and ineptitude, and him quadrupling down and blaming others.

This will be absolutely glorious to watch.

Our old coach realizing that it LOOKS like it might be easier to nab a title at LSU, but it's at least as easy get clobbered on a regular basis, if your guys "lack attention to details."

On a serious note: I wonder if Kelly's "detailed" constructions (which are great only if everything works like a clock) just don't fit the culture of SEC football? In those atmospheres it seems to me that breakdowns are magnified and those opposing athletes ram them up your butt immediately when you screw up. He might just be too complicated or most teams other than ... well, almost anyone.
