Thanks for those who supported my return from banland.

Kyler Murray looked better in his first start than Manziel did in his. Yes, USC has nowhere near the defense Florida did BUT Manziel had been here 20 months already when he made his first start. Murray has been here for three months and looks more comfortable throwing than I expected. Accuracy wasnt great but he wasnt bad by any means.

Murray's biggestflaw is that he seems to lack the pocket awareness Manziel had. He's pretty easy to sack considering how good a runner he is.

We need linebackers in the worst way. Shaan Washington and AJ Hilliard just look so lost any time an opposing offense uses any kindof misdirection. Our secondary and front four are excellent, but you cant stop the run with lost linebackers. That being said the defense showed up when they had to.

Donovan Wilson is just a baller. All he does is make plays. Picks, sacks, run support, he does it all.

Offensive line scheme was simplified and it showed, far fewer blown assignments today.

Playcalling was still pretty poor, multiple times we killed drives because we just stopped running. Spav has issues with sticking with what works.

Taylor Bertolet can take a long walk off a short pier.

RSJ is finally the player we all hoped he could be. He's gonna be a monster next year.

Christian Kirk is clearly playing hurt, he really lacks burst right now off the LOS.

Myles Garrett could file charges against the USC left tackle. Good grief, that was 2014 Auburn bad. He was straight up tackled on two long USC runs.

The announcers said he didn't practice until late in the week and the coaches told them he was hurt. I'm not sure why they are special......

You weren't alone, Sarge. I was standing up and clapping for TB, until Finest said: "Uh, he missed it." Doh.

I was clapping too. Then I was filled with regret as Tay-Tay failed me yet again.

We've all been there. Angle makes a big difference on close field goals.

Hard to disagree with any of that. SC isn't a good team so we will see how the rest of the season plays out. Still think we need to be 9-3 or better.

I doubt it. You can't get banned for score board trash talk. It's impossible, if it wasn't half the LSU posters would be banned
