Yeah, it's unfortunate because Jam and Justice are explosive runners, but they just haven't advanced enough as blockers to be every-down backs.

We have got to make teams pay for that shite. Milroe should be able to run if they pressure off the edge.

I think there is something to Milroe trying to be cautious with the ball the last few games and maybe that’s adding to sacks because he’s not forcing a throw. But many of these sacks are happening before he has a chance to do anything. The only hope is to run and try to salvage a few yards, and that’s not even feasible on some of these.

Crazy this same Arkansas team was tied 31-31 with LSU in the 4th (they led at halftime as well).

They have lost close game except A&M and even that game was one score in the second half.

What am I getting at?

We are growing bigly and have a very good team. If we can clean up blocking we will win the national championship

I think most here can live with Milroe still not processing quicker. But adding the OL struggles to that just makes it all the more frustrating. This offense can actually be pretty damn good if they can just fix one of those problems.

That last sack he stepped up to avoid the DE who beat our RT and stepped into the DE who beat our LT.

What could he do there?

You guys are asking for the impossible

He isn't processing fast but it isn't like he is processing slow.

By the time he completes his drop back the DE is already on him. There is no one to pass the ball to at that point unless we have a pre-called quick or hot

The offense has 274 yards. Probably our best single half this year. Should be 325+ but our OL is Swiss cheese.

I’m pretty sure it was close until deep into the 4th Qtr.

It’s when someone brings you a hot pocket.

As far as I'm concerned, Rees is safe from criticism for this ENTIRE game because:
1. We lined up under center on 3rd and short and got the first down
2. We ran a Tush Push for a TD

Crazy thing is he used them to kill A&M in that 3rd quarter..

Then he forgets them as an option

Two of the sacks were identical, one with Proctor and the other with Pritchett. Both DEs met at the QB with ease. Booker should be tried at OT but Saban knows best.

I think it’s wishful thinking to think this team has the capacity to win a championship this year. This is Arkansas we are playing today, we haven’t even been tested, haven’t faced a playoff caliber team outside the possibility of Texas, and I’m not even convinced they are.

There are so many undefeated teams in other conferences this season and outside UGA the SEC looks like the weakest conference this year, if that trend holds it’s going to be really tough to even make the playoffs.

False.

Most of these are a result of him not rolling protection, not utilizing the pocket proficiently and not seeing/processing the field fast enough.

If it isn’t there, throw it away.

PFF had 5 of the 7 sacks last week as QB related as opposed to a busted protection.
