Heard on game day yesterday that they haven't had a game decided by less than like 25 points.

Then they blew out UK 45-7.

Why is it so feast or famine for them?

With last night's performance, have to be #3 in the conference.

Pretty young team, and had some losses on the OL due to injury so are starting two freshmen tackles.

Next year is the year we were expected to be a lot better, so we're a bit ahead of schedule.

We didn't handle playing @uga or @au very well.
Earlier in the season our safeties were biting on any play action so we gave up a lot of big passing plays... *fingers crossed* they look to be improving their eye discipline as the season goes on.

I'm pretty sure Auburn would get that nod.

Why not A&M?

I wish we could have a rematch against AU so badly.

I think ppl doubt them because of how Mullen became the hottest name prematurely overnight. Then he derped.

They have good talent and Mullen can win, but overall he's not the best.

To focus on Kentucky, I'll say what I did last night and that was, don't discredit their wins and they are a sold group of competitive young men, but I don't think they're quite there yet. Very good 5-2 team, they earned that, but just don't think they were much above Mississippi State.

My curiosity makes me want to look into these teams closer and see talent equivalency and watch their previous games.

They have some talent, but a lot of immaturity and no good leaders. If they get behind early they have a high chance of giving up mental mistakes and don't handle being outmatched at positions well. They don't know how to play against teams with more raw talent.

you need to stop listening to your toothless stupid-arse Bobby Lowder puppet former coach Jean Cheesedik.

It's all about matchups. Georgia and Auburn outtalented us at our weak spots and exposed us in the secondary. Kentucky does not have that sort of talent and LSU plays into what we are good at on defense (they also had some injuries on defense). We also play much better at home. I fully expect us to shite the bed against A&M.

Isn't Mond pretty terrible at QB? If we can make them beat us with the pass we should win.

They don't have the defense that UGA or AU has so we should score plenty. Fitz had a field day against them last year

If you can stop our run game. You can beat us. We don't have the receivers to beat good sec dbs. We have a good not elite front 7 on defense but our safeties play like lbs and get burned deep by good QB, Wr combo.

Mond was terrible early, but looks to be improving. He also looks like one good hit will break him in half.

Their defense looked good against bama.. but bama also seemed to be going through the motions in that game -- not sure how much of that was bama's fault vs how much of that was good D from aTm.
