We didn’t score a TD in the epic Costello game until.

I watched the 12:00 minute highlight the other day...
A Mississippi State quarterback sets the SEC single game passing record in Tiger Stadium against the defending national champions....and then played slump buster at home the next week for a team that was 1-23 in SEC games over the previous three seasons. Only Mississippi State. Another reminder from watching that replay - what a complete waste of talent Kylin Hill was.

A head case who never doubted his own foolish choices. A back like that in this offense is a game changer.
We also had four turnovers in that game including the patented Costello pick 6. That’s the only reason the game was as close as it was.
He's still wasting away in Green Bay on the PUP List from an injury last season. Who would have ever imagined him getting injured?

Watching the replay of this game, so many current starters played significant minutes in the game. We were so young but yet played so well.
That game shows you what Leach can do with real talent. Unfortunately for us, that talent was discombobulated and had the Slophead work ethic. But hey it came together for one game. Costello, Hill, Shavers, etc. looked like legit NFL prospects that day.
I don't know that the guys we have now have that level of talent, but the work ethic and discipline is definitely light years ahead at this point.

Had 2 years of practice since then. Doesn't seem like the 3/8 is nearly as big of a problem now as you mouth-breathers made it out to be, back in the days where we couldn't even practice half the time.
Arizona played a ton of zone the other night and we put up 39 points and it should have been more without the turnovers. I think we're past dropping 8 shutting down our O.
It is no longer the death sentence for us that it was in early to mid 2020. Rogers has the patience to deal with it, Costello did not.
As long as the O-line plays decently and Will is healthy, we are going to be a tough out.
Yeah, when Leach was asked about it back then he said he would have been out of coaching a long time ago if that was true.
It just leads to more "boring" methodical drives down the field. Which still baffles me because we have people clamoring for 3 yards and a cloud of dust yet they call Leach's offense boring.
The difference is, 2 years ago, Marks was not gaining yards after first contact and we had zero receivers with YAC capability to beat the zone.
