The CheckerBoard

Maybe its a little of both. I understand what you are talking about. Late in the game its almost like Bray either shuts down or loses his focus a bit.

I think the biggest problem this year has been poor game management and the defensive game planning has been terrible. It's sad the offense can put up 35 points and still lose. But on the other side late fumbles and interceptions don't exactly show he (Bray) is good under pressure either.

Last I seen bray doesn't play defense he is putting up an average of 38 points a game what more you want

I'm not blaming bray for the losses, clearly the D has been horrendous.

But before the Troy game, we had not scored on a drive in the 4th quarter where a TD would have tied or given us the lead. We were something like 0-16 with 8 3 and outs. That is not the defense, that is the offense not being able to produce in crunch time.

The problem on Saturday is that we didn't score a point after a TD with a little over 8 minutes to go in the 3rd. It's like they put it on cruise control. I've said all season that it seems like any chance our offense has to take a lead or extend the lead (exception Troy) late in the game, they fail to do so. Often resulting in turnovers or quick three and outs.
