This could be one of most disappointing games I've watched in a while. Not the fact that we lost but we had Parr on the bench who in my opinion would have ran the offense to victory. He played great at Wisconsin where I watched the Owls play respectively at Canp Randall. Parr played well all three games compared to Driskel who I wouldn't trust in a pee wee leauge. With this loss we will at most 5 games the rest of season depending if Parr is our quarterback. Also not sure why LAne insists on throwing first every game when we have two great RB to turn to. Moral of the story is Driskel is not my quarterback and Parr from beggining Of camp has looked the most comfortable running the offense. Even McNeal was highly baffeled by Driskels throws.

Until next time owl fans.

"We thought Driskel played a little bit better during the week so we gave him a shot", said Coach Lane Kiffin.

No Buddy No Parr No passes to Solomon.  No conversions on 3rd downs.  You see the result.  And a tired defense

Post game with Kiffin. paraphrasing here.

"Howell wasnt ready to go for the game."

"Open competition for week leading up to the game. Despite the numbers put up last week, they felt they werent doing good enough in previous games in the passing game."

"There will be open competition again going into this for Middle Tennessee State."

"Penatles and drops didnt help us.

Exact wording here from coach. "That's embarrassing to our fans, to our university to lose that game."

That would make sense. just wondering why they didnt announce that at the beginning of the game.

As demonstrated tonight, if Driskel is going to run this team we're going to be right back to last year's FAU.
