00:00I think it's very clear that we find ways to not win football games,

00:11and that's what has to change.

00:14And that locker room is a good enough football team to play with anyone

00:22and to win games, creating that mentality that believes you're going to

00:32and finding ways to do it and to do your assignment when it's called on

00:38in critical moments like you did the entire first half.

00:45It's things that we've got to get corrected if we want to experience the joy

00:49of winning these close, tough SEC football games.

00:56And that's really the way I see it.

00:59We felt great about the preparation, felt great about coming into this game,

01:07felt like we were going to win the game.

01:10And here I am feeling again that we don't quite know how to do that.

01:17And you've got to look at, again, all aspects of it from coaching

01:23to making critical plays at critical moments.

01:27And why do we not execute the same defensive calls that we executed

01:35in the first half and the second half in critical moments?

01:39It's just all of those things is just they compound into helping us find ways

01:46to not have success on the winning side of the scoreboard.

01:50And I'm not trying to take anything away from Georgia or previous opponents,

01:55but I really feel that way.

01:57I don't know if it's – I feel like it's more us finding ways not to win games.
