Oh wait, nvm. They were awful last year too.

Still, 557 yards and 30 points to Bowling fricking Green

Meanwhile the Arkansas defense only gave up 200 yards and 13 points to UTEP

Man, I don't know. I sure hope we win another game.

3-9 though imo. Arkansas will beat us 62-3 probably.

What? I thought their two new 5-star freshman DTs would stop BG cold? What happened Tennessee fans?

Willie Martinez was suspended because of “some minor secondary violation from two years ago” and this was why they couldn’t cover anyone...

Orange hope springs eternal...

You're crazy if you think Bowling Green has a crappy offense. They have a veteran QB, good WRs, and veteran OL.
They are a bowl team and we knew they would move the ball.
We were without a couple starters in the secondary and it showed.

They have a 6'4 WR that absolutely abused our CB Emmanuel Moseley, which was shocking for all of us because Moseley has been fantastic since he stepped foot on campus.

Defensively, we also looked lethargic, like we didn't want to be there.

Overall, we are pretty disappointed with the D performance. We knew they would score and throw the ball, but at times we didn't even challenge them.

We'll be better once we get some guys healthy, but yes it's a concern.

Anxious to see how getting Justin Martin at CB and Todd Kelly Jr at S and Willie Martinez at DB coach at secondary improves things.

If not much I expect to see Baker Mayfield have a good outing next week.

The DBs threw their backs out pulling a train on Jen Bielema on Friday night. Should be fine next week.
