1. The defense is still allowing wide open passes. I mean they make it look easy. I could throw on South Carolina's secondary. They are getting better though. Mizzou worries me because I think they match up to us similar to A&M and ECU. Hopefully not too much like A&M.

2. Special teams. Specifically kickoff coverage. It is HORRID. We look good in everything special teams, except for kickoff coverage and a punt returns. Allowing two kickoff returns for a TD is inexcusable. We didn't even let Gurley get one. It's like our kicker forgot how to boot it into the endzone in 6 days.

OLine and LBers

I think OL is scheme and LB is size and talent.

1. RG - Easily the weakest spot on our offensive line

2. Communication btwn the OC, QB, & Oline. We've been going no huddle a lot because they haven't really gotten this down yet. A couple of penalties were due to this exact issue. Happy we've got a bye week right now.

3. Consistency in the secondary. While the play has improved in the back we keep having to rotate guys in and out because of injuries and suspensions.

4. Special teams were great in the first 3 games, but struggled a lot against Florida. Hopefully Adam Griffith isn't as mentally weak as Cade Foster and can put a missed kick behind him.

eta: If Yeldon keeps dancing before hitting the hole Henry should start getting more of his carries

Pass rush, or the lack thereof ... it has a lot to do with #1 IMHO.

The KOR thing by the opposing team is easily fixable and will be fixed this week. It's just beating it into the heads of the young kids to stay in their lanes.

We play to the level of our opponents, and all of our opponents are shite.

How could I forget that? What do we have, two sacks?

I'm sure it's a couple more. You're right though, definitely a lack of pressure. I considered that an outlier in the A&M and ECU games because of short, quick passes. But after UGA and Vandy, there is no denying it.

This will be interesting. As rooster just mentioned we have had serious lack of pass rush from our dline which has further exposed our already weak secondary, if Mizzou's Oline is a weak point and we can actually exploit that it could be a good day. Especially if Thompson and Co. can take advantage of those LBs.
