FOOTBALL Drink’s late game gaffe was ALMOST as bad as the one in the first half.

Once again, at nearly the same spot on the field. He called a time out and had us lineup to try to draw Vandy offside. That almost NEVER works anymore. But if he wanted to try it, fine but don’t waste a precious timeout. If Vandy doesn’t jump, just take the damn 5 yard delay if game and punt it anyway.
With 3 TOs instead of 2, we might have forced Vandy to punt, leaving us decent field position and perhaps a. Hence at a winning FG in regulation.
Coaches just don’t value TOs as much as they should, especially in the second half.
