Urban Meyer's Post Game Comments. A little long but very "pleasurable"

Urban Meyer's Post Game Conference Comments (Editor Note, this is the very close transcript to Urban's Postgame Conference. We were able to capture Meyer's unspoken thoughts (in italics). Yes, We are mind readers.) Hattip to GT Gator (not his real name)for these notes. Support Urban and Tebow with this 100x100 Avatar. Perfect for message boards. (Thanks el brujo) Or this small bannner Here is the transcript Coach is a cinderblock, non-descript room. There is a podium and there are microphones... but there does not appear to be a moderator. ----------- Q. ? A. I thought his hand was going forward. We ran a play action pass to get him out on the edge.. edge pressure... I gotta watch the film, but obviously you can't have it.... you can't win that kind of game. {Like the LSU Game, we got all the calls. It was what they call home cooking down here? Right? Bear Bryant was the pioneer in that? Right?} Q. ... and then you get the ball back and throw the interception. [Can't make it out]... Kentucky game throwing off his back foot. A. [slight smile] (I always believes that Chris Leak chokes. That fucking CBS writer put me in a pickle. I had to stick with Leak…Shit… Classic don’t like contact shit…makes me ill) Q. What do you say to a senior QB who knows better than to turn the ball over in key situations? What can you say? A. You say that you're on a team and you're a group of seniors .. your first place in the SEC... you've got two weeks to go play in one of the great rivalry games of college football. (And finally I say to him: Step and take the fucking hit Chris, you are killing us.) Our job is to go compete for the SEC championship and that is what we are currently doing. We lost to a good team in a tough environment.... I don't know... what do you want me to say? Just don't do that... and let's get a little better and we'll practice extremely hard not to let that happen again (by moving Tebow in as the starter. Fuck the media) Q... Do you feel like the turning point was when Wilbur dropped the punt and you were still ahead? A... [Runs hand through hair] Yep. (He reminds me of horse) Q... Did he say anything extra... that's what happened? A... That's what happened. (Were you at the same game as us? What the fuck do you think happened?) Q... Did you have a chance to see what happened on that play? [Urban dabs his eyes] Punter's fault... snapper's fault? A... [slight pause, shakes head] I tell ya... I'll let you know more after I watch film. It's.... to sit here and stand up in front of a bunch of people and start blaming people.... [can't quite make out next few words sounds like several variations of the F word again] ... scored... should have not done that... should have not done a couple of other things that is part of college football. Q... Did you ever answer that question about the Leak fumble? A... [starts to shake his head in a "no" direction then says] Yea.. he shouldn't do that.... (he won’t do that again because its going to be hard to fumble a clip board) Q.... [from a diff person] You challenged it... what did you see on the field? A.... Shouldn't do that. It's fumble, then I thought it was an incomplete pass.. that is why we challenged it. I just had a guy tell me he thought it was an incomplete pass. I mean of course I'll watch it on video.... I guess it has to be evidence or whatever they say... (it has to be a forward pass. LSU Homecooking payback hell? Well I ‘m the new kid on the block and I really should just shut my my mouth. This ain’t the MAC or WAC) Q... You gotta live with it. You gotta live with the call. A... That's what you gotta do. That's what we have to do. We gotta get cleaned up and go home and try to keep our first place standing in the SEC that's the number one thing. (reaches for another tissue) How ya do that you gotta get a lot better... that's the problem. That's what we gotta do... gotta get a lot better. Q... How surprised were you that you only had the ball for about [tough to make out... "nine" something... minutes in the first half maybe?] A... Yeah we had I think three drives... scored on two of 'em.. then we had a safety... lot of crucial errors... that... and then special teams did not play well tonight... because it seemed like we didn't ..... Obviously we gave up that one score.. which.... we didn't drive em out....we usually play on that side of the field and it didn't happen tonight. Q... You guys [?] pretty well in the first half... moved the ball.... well you scored every time except the safety.... and then the second time... A... [He's warming up to the questions a bit now... he still looks like he is having dental work... but less invasive dental work] [cuts questioner off] We got the run game going.. their best players are their defensive ends.. and we felt like we did not want to get in that kind of a game because it was a silent snap count with the noise and .... obviously that hurt us when we started getting in those situations. We went through a couple of drives where we didn't really have a second down. They're big chunk after chunk right down the field... and we were on schedule. On schedule means it run action and play action passes and when we are doing that we are pretty good... but when we are forced to pass in that environment... like I remember what Auburn did to Alabama last year that's their deal and we can't be in that kind of situation. Even in the 4th quarter to go down there and win the game ... we felt like we were on schedule... we started putting the ball in some of our athletes hands... I felt like Bubba Caldwell was running extremely hard... and ... but it... the whole.. in this kind of game you gotta stay on schedule and obviously we did not. Q... Your gut feel about this team. Do you feel they'll come back and... A... [Cuts off question] .. Absolutely as soon as I put (with emphasis) My quarterback (Tebow)in. Q... Why? Why will they come back? A... Because they work extremely hard. I think this is a different team. You know last year we lost championship on ... I thought we gave away...... the first thing is... the first thing you have to understand is I saw what Georgia did, I saw... we played Tennessee already... this is a tough ass conference man. That's part of the deal. Want to sit and worry about it and blame people? You're talking to the right guy... (It’s always somebody elses fault damnit, not my fault.) Anxious to get back to work and correct problems. (Chris Leak... gotta move on. Tebow is the answer. The Gator Nation will love me if I do that, they hate Chris) Q... Is this a good time then to have a bye week? A... Yeah... we're beat up a little bit. Get a bye week getting ready to play a talented team we play in two weeks. So focus is on... we gotta win the next game some how.... and we gotta find a way to spin this so the blame is on someone else besides me. I don't know our injury situation so we gotta see where were at. Q... Is this as difficult a loss as you have had as the head coach? A... Sure. Q... Why? A... Everyone.. everyone of them... I can tell you every one and I can tell you all about it and tell you... can't remember many wins... I guess that is one of the problems as coach... (I get to emotional and lose focus of what I need to do to win,) but I can tell you every loss and I can remember exactly what happened. That's not good. Q.... So this is the toughest one you think? A... [Shrugs] I don't know... Yea. (sobs a bit) Q... How did DeShawn perform after his first time back... A... Okay.. first half he was going pretty good.... second half, I don't know.. we were... it is just (sniffs audibly)... you know for me to make comments right now... I really....you know me better than that... (I really like to denigrate my players as I can.) Q... What did [a little to low for me to hear] about the personal foul. A... Yeah that was a big one. The kid.... they run a throw back to the QB and his job was to be there and he said he didn't... he said.... I don't if you guys saw the tape, he said he just shoulder padded the guy and they called it. (Fuck, we clubbed Cox in the head twice and got away with it. Pissed me off that they call that kinda foul ..considering the other shit we did to him (cox).) Q.... There was just now way getting momentum back it seemed. A... Yeah 3rd quarter then the special teams screwed it up.... yeah I felt the same way you did. We played the game on the bad side of the field. Then you [something like “fuck” or close to it] back and play some defense and get some plays on offense and we get back down there and make a mistake and Leak gives it away. Q.... something about AU's defense. A... Yea they should they're an excellent defense. They're very good players on defense. My senior QB gift wraps passes to their DBs? He made them look like all Americans…(Kleenex again). (Chris is deathly afraid of getting hit. Ever notice that the CBS or ESPN cameras constantly show him on the sidelines with his helmet off? Well, get used to seeing him on the sidelines wearing a headset with a clipboard. I might start using him on the kickoff team as a wedge buster.) Q.... What'd you think of the atmosphere? A... It's the SEC... very good atmosphere. (Not as good as Bowling Green but good in a weird way) Have a good night. (I am going to go get in a good cry session) [Walks out]

I can't believe he wasn't pissed at Uaburn for running up the score on the last play

I hate to admit it, but you guys have been right about Leak

Agree with you Spear. Tebow should start

fumble call was not correct call You're preaching to the choir on this one....Im still sick to my stomach.

easy to ANYBODY to see it was a pass everybody on tv said the same except maybe Patrick i h8 that guy.

i really hope 4 a Rematch in ATL

I agree with those who say that the most disturbing thing about this play was that the officials weren't even going to review it. So, we had to waste a valuable time out.

Then, the replay official did no more than a cursory review. He couldn't possibly have examined all replay angles carefully. I know he didn't have a still picture like I posted above. But, a close examination of the different replay angles would have shown the same thing.

The two things together lead me to believe that they had no intention of over-ruling the call on the field, no matter what. That's disturbing in it's own right, because the NCAA implemented the replay system specifically to make sure they make the right call.

(If they can guess Leak's intention, then I can guess their intention as well.)

the problem is that the refs give the qb the benefit of the dout like 99% when this happens... why not now? who else is sick of getting jobbed by SEC refs? they are the worst; ACC refs are just crooks but SEC refs are dopes.

You guys are stupid. Urban tried to run up the score on Alabama. You got what you deserved when Auburn scored on that dicked up play. Second, I wonder what LSU would say about the homecooking calls? You fucks certainly have received your share of them this season.

And then you wonder why the rest of the SEC hates you and your team

Tebow should have been in there on the first drive that ended with the chipshot field goal. It was 3rd and inches and instead of a qb sneak we tried a long developing handoff.

It appears the Mike Freemans of the world got to Meyer and the OC and they tried to play Leak more. . . to the detriment of the team.

At least now we won't hear about how Leak could have won all these games by himself. No more Heisman garbage.

We were fine with Chris in the game, what we were not fine with was the play calling. They should have moved him out of the pocket more away from the pressure.

Cheap shot for Auburn to score that TD at the endo fo the game. I pray we mee t those classless cheaters once more. If Tebow had been at the helm of the Gator Cruise Ship, this would not have been close.

We got hosed, Leak clearly was passing the ball, it bounced off the d-lineman coming at him, no one from Aub hit his arm.

Anonymous said...

I knew if Auburn won it would involve bad calls! They called the holding on us in the end zone when a few plays earlier, they did the same thing to us right in front of the ref and didn't throw the flag. Then the incomplete pass called a fumble! They keep going on and on about us being the number 1 penalized team in the nation, but they fail to mention all the uncalled penalties on the other teams. It really sucks that we have to beat both the other team and the officials in EVERY game!

Both the guys on ESPN and the commentary guys on ESPNU said it was clear that it was an incomplete pass. It was bad enough that the officials on the field missed it, but the replay officials too? Something dirty was going on- a little home cooking.

But still- we had a chance to win the game and Leak threw an awful, awful INT. It was time for him to step up and he just choked.

We will bounce back against the Cocks (easy win) and UGA (another easy win)

Anonymous said...

I think you are right. UGA and USC are gimme wins. We will bounce back

Leak you're not fucking tiger woods and this isn't golf.

Show some damn emotion, try being a leader instead of an inverted bitch and for love of god stop having a leakdown and doing the first thing that pops into that pea-sized brain.

Please tell your pops we don't have you because you're black, we hate you because you suck.


Holding in the endzone and giving up a free safety is batshit stupid. If Leak isn't smart enough to throw the ball away let them knock him the fuck out, we'd be better off.

Whatever coach decided to pull Tebow out in the redzone and only give him a couple snaps the whole game needs to watch more game film and less meatswing porn.

You piece of shit punter go play fucking rugby.

This isn't Utah we don't believe in Joseph Smith, gold plates buried in the woods and we sure as hell don't believe in a fucking pocket passer running the option.
