Isn't that a nice feeling? Golden's spineless jellyfish act has kept us from being 7-0.
Louisville: Completely neuters the offense and instructs Coley to call a ball-control, low-risk game. Ran into 8/9 man fronts all night, did not allow any shots a downfield or attempts at big plays. Admits after the game he should've allowed a more wide open game by the offense.
Nebraska: Nebraska's offense runs the ball on 80% of their plays. Finishes with 343 yards rushing. Do we bring safeties up in the box to help? Get an extra guy to put his hand in the ground? Sell out on the run and make their shaky QB beat our skilled corners? No. We allow them to have a numbers advantage in the box all night and play soft on the outside. One big play scared them into playing off and allowing unholy amounts of yardage. The ND and KState games all over again. No ability to adapt and learn.
Georgia Tech: Sweet baby Jesus. No DT lined up over their center with deep safeties the majority of the game. The defense was conceding 5 yards before the ball was snapped. In Golden's own quote he admits they were scared of the big play, and would rather them take the FB dive for 5 yards a pop. Well, they did. And they did it often.
It's painfully obvious to anyone that has played football at a high level or really understands the game that Golden has been severely out-coached in his 3 losses, and it were his mistakes that kept this talented team from being 7-0.
Conceding yards, hiding under his bed fearing turnovers from the offense, shaking in his khakis at the idea of allowing a big play-- Golden has handed 3 games on a silver platter to teams. The underlying theme? Fear. Golden is a coward who coaches scared.
