I still think we're possibly a top 4 SEC team. I think we're better than A&M, we just didn't take what was there for the taking. Credit to A&M for getting a gritty win they probably shouldn't have. But that happens in sports - fairly regularly. The better team loses sometimes.

I like what Odom is doing with the defense this year. We got a lot of pressure on Johnson, he made some pretty risky/crazy plays to pull out the win.

I think our offense has taken a stop forward too. KJ made a big mistake but is still the best QB we've had since Mallett. Overall the offense looked pretty good against what I think is a top 3 SEC defense. Yeah, we only scored 21 but a missed easy field goal, and a goal line fumble prevented it from being 31 points.

The secondary is shakey still but was improved vs Aggy. I think it will keep getting better.

Special teams sucks and Scott Fountain should've been sent packing over the weekend.

That all said, I think we play Bama tough and we're even capable of winning.

I don’t think we win but I think it’s a 2 touchdown game or less and then we only lose 1 or 2 more the rest of the year. What really sucks is if we’d have won last week I think we’re for sure a 9 win team with a really good chance to get double digits. Now 8-4 is a real possibility but most likely I still think we’re 9-3.

If we don't fix the mistakes that have been there all year we are middle of the pack. That's not really that bad considering where we were just 2 years ago. There is certainly potential but we have to get better. That's what worries me. We haven't gotten better over the first 4 weeks. If anything, we have regressed.

I think when we had Catalon as a leader on defense and confident KJ, we are a good team. If KJ shits the bed it’s over. You don’t have the leadership on defense to overcome adversity. KJ has got to keep his head in the game. The offense can’t sputter if we plan to win. Hopefully our younger defensive guys will get good experience this year to propel our defense next year. We have got to do a better job at defensive backs. Clark sucks. He can’t keep up with anyone, constantly is burned.
