They never really dominated, but got dominated twice. The 2024 Tigers were somewhat a victim of very high expectations. 9-10 wins are great for this program, they just didn't pass the eyeball test. I expect a poratal QB to start next year for continuity.

12 passing touchdowns all season is just WILD to me.
With that WR group, with the size and short area ability, to have 1 passing touchdown a game is pretty damn unacceptable. Even on YAC alone they should've done that. And Norfleet should've been a good red zone target in his own right.
I think almost all of it comes down to Cook just missing too many throws he should've made. The Cook era is essentially over so I can go ahead and appreciate the story and his love for the University while also just saying - damn, that kid was NOT good enough this year. Even when he was healthy, he simply missed too many makeable throws.
This really seemed like a season where we should've put up 25-30 passing touchdowns over the course of the season with another 15-20 rushing. The offense just never quite worked the way it should've.
