He wasn't worried about our O scoring. He thought he could flip the field with the punt and get more points.

(09-15-2024, 09:43 AM)Replying to Milldawg that's what I thought. At first I thought, I can't believe he is punting, then I thought....he doesn't think our offense can do anything [/quote] Altogether his doubts were warranted. We looked stymied. Flummoxed. Stammygastered. Bewildered. We did not shine anywhere but Special Teams. UK set the pattern for the game and we accepted it. I completely expected a second half like ClemPson and couldn’t be more surprised to see more of the same. I can’t accept THAT is who we are though and hope I am right.

He stated in his post game interview he didn't hesitate to punt. His reasoning was if he failed to make that first down that the DAWGS, even if they didn't get a first down, would likely leave UK getting the ball back inside the 10 and having to drive the length of the field. Punting and getting a three and out would give them a shorter field to get in FG distance.
Not sure I agree with him, but that was his explanation. Personally, I gave a big sigh of relief when he decided to punt, thinking 2 Dawg first downs would end the game. Still ended up giving them the ball back with 10 seconds and time for 2 plays. |
