I still think at some point this offensive line gels, and we look dominant on offense like last year.

Defensively I'm not sure what to make of it. I feel like we should be better than last year (we are right now). We are just lacking in depth. Our linebackers(Ellis) are lacking on athletic liability. Our defensive line is getting pushed around as well.

Now I believe we are going to have to have a come to Jesus talk with our team about being physical. This will happen and like every other year we will improve every week and by the end of the year we will be rolling through people.

I said 9-3 before the season. It's still possible with Ole Miss being a swing game for 10-2. Just relax. As the season wears on other teams get sore. We are built for the grind of the season and at the end of the year we will push teams around.

An anonymous coach said it's better to get us early than later.

I love Ellis for what he's done for our program but it kills me to watch him take bad angle after bad angle on a ball carrier.

What's the point of even watching when other teams are going to have a huge inherent advantage over us. Honest question.

Honestly I think was the toughest game we will play all year. People I'll say bama but bama doesn't have this offensive firepower while being able to stop the run.


We got a realistic shot at 10 wins running the table isn't off the table

Auburn list their first gamein the sec to lsu 35-21 in 2013. They won the sec and plYed in the championship game

Ole Miss is far and away the worst matchup for us going forward. Tough QB who can run and drop dimes, a big athletic receiving corps, and a DL that can rush the passer. They're Texas A&M east. I'm chalking that one up as a loss.

We match up well with Bama, but that defense scares me, not to mention the fact that they now have a mobile QB.

Yep, it is our worst match up. Still had some really bad play calling/decisions in the red zone.

Dude it took me a while to come to grips with it. What it will take is some other teams being down and us be up. Life of a hog fan. Doesn't mean I can't enjoy my team. The season isn't over anyways.

It's unlikely but A&M could lose to 2 more teams down the stretch and we win out. Things are crazy sometimes.

Further, if it is Brooks Ellis, can you gave specific instances of his lackluster athletics costing us big plays?

No. Their qb isn't close to might running the ball. Knight is faster than Johnny football. Ole Miss doesn't have a great pass defense. There isn't a team in the country that has a better wr group than aggies. Seals Jo es, Reynolds and Kirk are you serious? That's three 1st r me Rou d picks? Ole Miss has strangfellow and a good te but they aren't aggies.



And we get them at home. And ole Miss can't run to save their life

It's ellis + the lack of good line backer depth.

You also can't sit here with a straight face and say you have never seen him get burnt in coverage or take a bad angle.

Oj hasn't caught one pass again us in three years I'll take my chances


Hurts isn't a dual threat. He can't throw. His high yardage is 158.

I scare of bama defense. Not intimidated whatsoever by that offense. It's not good.

Neither could Knight. He torched our arse in the 2nd half. Bama will beat us comfortably and Ole Miss will beat us similar to how A&M did.

Not really. He made one real pass. We turned it over on the ten and they ran the ball. He never torched us
