Our center got hurt, Ole Miss adjusted, Kiffin panicked a bit, we didn't finish drives, Christian Jones fumbled, we couldn't defend the bunch.

I think that about covers it.

Because he spent too much time on the Tigerrant.

Also our run game isn't fantastic to begin with.

Quite frankly I think we are at our best when we throw to set up the run, as pvssy as that sounds and as much as I hate it.

Had a buddy saying Ole Miss' run D wasn't any good and Bama would have won the game if Kiffin hadn't abandoned the run.

I think he mad.

Also OJ Howard is a pvssy and we suck at field goals in games that matter.

You have the best WR in college football. You gotta play to your strengths.

I don't think anybody with a brain would say Ole Miss' run D isn't any good. I do think it is their most vulernable area, for whatever that means.

I think if Kelly doesn't get hurt and we keep running we probably finish that first drive of the 3rd quarter and win the game, yea. But if my aunt had a weenie she'd be my uncle.

Because we made adjustments after they ran to the left and gained a lot of yards on one drive. They tried it again after we made adjustments, couldn't get anything and had to look elsewhere.

Fair enough. Apparently LSU is going to run up the middle all night and defeat us soundly as a result.

Tbf we were moving the ball well to left side pretty well. Kelly (C) went down, Arie K (LG) messed up his ankle, and we stopped moving the ball as well.

Henry and Yeldon were both limited going into the Arkansas game, so I think it is safe to say y'all's defense put quite a few knocks on our guys.

Sounds like a Mississippi State fan. People say our run defense is suspect and that we haven't faced a team that is as physical as LSU running the ball this year and that they will give us problems. Completely forgetting we played fricking Alabama earlier this year.

If Bama played 10 games against OM this year the results would be...

Bama 9 wins
OM 1 win
