I think Chaney was way too conservative in his play calling in the second half. They tried to sit on the lead, but when the Tide turned nothing much changed.
I watched less than a Qtr in partial protest as well. Just score checked and watched the last 4 minutes of the game live along with O.T. Georgia's FR QB Fromm appeared to get tight later in the game, hate to use the word Choke as I didn't see the entire game, but tight and some uncatchable balls and it was a shame they couldn't convert a 1st down to close out the game.
I only watched primarily at the end. It was hard to tell if it was Chaney or Fromm. Plays were simply not being executed by QB to deliver the ball in catchable zones (behind or bouncers). Some run calls were definitely Chaney, and if Dawgs were having trouble throughout the game, why would you run it into the teeth of the defense putting you in 2nd and 3rd and longs. I saw a lateral throw or two that had not much of a chance either as it was shutdown quickly. Sitting on a 10 point lead and being conservative or lack of play making whichever you prefer to call it, cost the Dawgs.
Unfortunately, SEC Championship game (Part I or Part II, does not matter) generally equals best teams (and, ideally, game) in college football...last night did not disappoint and lived up to the hype, if not exceeded it. I am confident that the ratings will prove to be satisfactory, and, for those that made the decision that you did for the reason that you did...they simply missed out on watching a great football game with two tremendous Head Coaches and a host of tremendous great players and athletes.
It was a combination for sure of Chaney and Fromm...that said, much like when he was at Purdue, once UGA had the lead and went into the more conservative mode, there was at least a play or two per series that were complete wastes...a play just for the sake of a play, as, they had zero opportunity for success and made no sense at all.
