Most surprising to me was how puny SC's defensive line looked. Lining up against the A&M o-line, they looked like high schoolers.


We lost a lot on defense.

Losing CBs Victor Hampton to the draft early and Ahmad Christian when he transferred were HUGE blows to our secondary. It forced us into a position where true freshmen like Al Harris, Jr (technically sound because of his dad's coaching but not there physically) and Chris Lammons had to play.

The DL, our decision to sign a bunch of non-qualifiers really hurt as well.

but was surprised you didn't use it as a chance to work on that part of the offense.


Yeah, they really should have.

There's nothing better than using a blowout vs. an overranked opponent to "work on your offense" on national TV.

If I'm an offensive recruit, I'm looking at A&M. Their offensive line was fantastic, their skill positions are great, and Sumlin is a master at developing QBs.

Henderson and Garrett should provide a strong foundation on he D-line for the next 3+ years.

USC needs to get out of the 3-4. That was the worst defense I have ever seen a Spurrier coached team play. No pressure on the quarterback, covered people like UGA did last year, and missed at least 20 tackles last night.

Dylan Thompson throws a pretty deep ball, but struggles on the shorter passes. Doesn't have a lot of zip on the ball and wasn't stepping into some of his shorter throws.

Boise St. = Trash

Ole Miss has a really good defense and a really bad offense. That was one of the sloppiest and most undisciplined games I've seen in a while. I know it's the first game of the season, but 10 false starts with no crowd noise isn't good for the Ole Miss team. The OL is terrible, will allow DLs to put pressure on Wallace, and he will make bad decisions.

The Ole Miss WRs are very solid. Treadwill can eat small corners up all day long.

Vandy is back to being Vandy. If you have to play 3 quarterbacks in your game things are not going to go well for you.

Is that the reason Georgia whipped your arse last year?

Looked to me like ATM controlled both sides of the line of scrimmage. Do that and you win most of the time. SC's offense never got in a rythm and ATM fricked with the carolina QB's head most of the game.

The SECW just got wilder if the Aggies are legit and Carolina isnt shite.
