We need a big athletic target on the outside.
Hunter Henry is a good player but we need another option on the outside on critical third downs. aTm was stacking the box because we had no legit threat on the outside to get those “throw em up" type balls.
Williams should have ran the ball on the last 4th down. He is clearly our best running back in power situations. Ran with a chip on his shoulder yesterday.
The secondary is much improved! I know we got burned on some plays, but we are now making plays on the ball and had tight coverage most of the day. I can really see where the guys are being coached up.
We need an athletic speed rusher on the edge. I don’t care if he is 210 pounds. We need someone to push the pocket in obvious passing situations.
Tackling was amazing yesterday compared to the last 2 years.
Our kicking game is terrifying.
We run too many end-arounds

threat on the outside
Without the threat, it'd just be nice if we would utilize other parts of the field. We were roasting them over the middle but I don't think we threw it there more than 5 or 6 times.

Penalties and stupid mistakes cost us the game. All will be just fine when we beat Georgia at tDump..
I watched the Tenn vs UGA game. UGA is extremely unimpressive...
Go Hogs!

Sorry...Georgia will skull frick us assuming Gurley is playing. They'll just shite on us otherwise. I'd feel better about it at home, but not there.

why? they didn't skullfrick Tennessee and I think we're better then Tenn.

I hate to get my hopes up only to have them shite on and crushed. I cope better with our frick ups if I act like I expect them.

UGA looked avg. at home against a shitty team.
tDump will be rocking, I think we have a good shot at the upset.
I feel we're better than Tenner.

Other than Alabama the rest of our games are winnable.
Hell, we should have won this one.
6-6 is very attainable and we might even do better. There are mistakes that can be corrected plus we can either trot out a new field goal kicker or decide that we always go for it.
I think our biggest issues are lack of wide receivers that can make plays, especially with Wilson hurt again and secondary depth.

Was surprised.
We weren't beat by talent, we lost because of mistakes.
Last year we didn't have enough talent, this year its about limiting mistakes and as players get more experience we are going to keep getting better. But yesterday showed we have the talent.
Two key penalties avoided and we would have won that game without a doubt.
Good learning experience for our players, we just got to clean it up a little.
We going bowling this year.

You think playing in LR will make that much of a difference?

I wouldn't necessarily say it'll make a difference, but we do finally have one thing that I don't think we've had in nearly a half century -- opposing teams know we're physical as hell and that's intimidating. I'd love to complement that with one of those insanely crazy WMS crowds of S. Arkansans who spent all day getting turnt up on the golf course and want to tear shite up.
Georgia fans were sharting all over themselves on their board and tScoreboard because they watched their team have a pillow fight with a weaksauce finesse Tennessee team (and later watch USC show how terrible they really are in a late home loss to a Mizzou team that's weak as tea water) while we've been punching teams in the mouth all year and gave away the A&M game with mistakes.
I felt good about this game going into the year, but now I feel really solid about it. We just need tRock to go full Gump on Georgia.

Well I'm thinking smackoverhog thinks the game is in Athens.
