25% Defensive secondary
15% Receivers
60% Coaching/play calling

Not sure what more our staff could have done.

Unless you're upset we didn't sign 45 in the last class.

I'd suggest realizing that we opened up with what may be the winner of our division. Don't jump off that cliff you keep staring down.

This wasn't an opener against ULL.

I just hated how much we got away from the run in the second.

Abandoning the run in the 3rd qtr was about as bad a decision as there could have been. The rest was just personnel issues. We still have a bunch of Petrino guys in the back 7 and it shows.

What other choice did we have? 5 can't block 8 or nine with a corner blitz or OLB blitz. It's not possible.

The interception put us in a hole. Bottom line. The dropped TD pass by Hatcher, in the long run put us in a hole.

Not the play calling. You should know, I'm a quick trigger hater on Chaney.

Probably because our O-line wasn't getting the same push in the 2nd half.

Why not throw a few screens then if they got the box loaded up and are bringing the house.

Trying to throw it 20 yds down field isn't the solution either if our pass blocking sucks.

x100

90% of the blame goes to Chaney.

5% to Hatcher.

5% to Bert for not slapping the shite out of Chaney halfway through the second half.

I think we could have not given up on the run. Auburn was stacking the box? Ok, we're a run heavy team. We're going to see that all year. We can't just abandon what we're good at. Especially with our current set of WRs.

Without their starting QB for a half. And we were less competitive against them than we were last year. We looked good for a half, but after that last 30 minutes I'm not sure we're any better than last year.

If Houston Nutt had been our OC today, we score at least 30, easy.

I'm really disappointed in the offense. They looked good for a half, but that's it. The offense didn't make any adjustments at half. Chaney should know what Ellis Johnson is going to do. The receivers had critical drops.

The d did tackle better today.

God damn THIS. I didn't expect to win this, but I was highly impressed with our Offense play in the first half. Our secondary: frick You!

This is like the 90's, but we don't have a championship BB to dull the FB pain.

Right now! Jack Crowe just came.

3, 1, -6, 3, 0, 6

Those numbers are what was gained/lost on rushes in the 3rd qtr.

We only ran 13 plays in the 3rd quarter, 6 of which were runs, one of which was the interception and we passed for 37 yards.

We do not get the ball back until the 9:55 mark of the fourth quarter, down 17, 38-17.
