I do believe we need a few folks back to health, but the question remains the same.

We have, who i think is a good to great OC... We have a better than decent QB, and we have a couple of Good RB's, 3-4 nice WR's, and a TE or two... Our Oline needs to do better run blocking (will take some recruiting likely) but we should be improving greatly soon, right?

Define clicking more.

I expect we look better after the by week. Offense usually gets a solid tune-up during this time and hopefully the defense gets healthy


Long term we should expect to be decent to good by next year if briles is to work out.

To the point that we win a game because the Offense bailed out the Defense. We are bound to have one game the D comes out more flat sooner or later.

Right? We can't be this dang good in every sec game in this weird season.. lol! or can we?

It's all good my friend.

Kinda agree, if he isn't hurt or major gun shy from being so!

Normally if your playing good defense it isn’t a fluke. The only 2 games where I think the defense may give up a lot of points is bama and Florida (mayyybe LSU if they have Brennan but they’ve been so one dimensional I doubt it). Our pass defense is just really fricking good. I believe our offense will click eventually because briles has been calling lots of great plays. We just aren’t executing sometimes. The drops have been a problem at times and we need to be more successful in the run game, looking back against ole miss and trelon even ran between the tackles better than Boyd so I agree with what some others have said and that Boyd Must not be 100% at least I hope not. Knox really needs to start putting it together

I thought they had turned a corner in the 2nd half of the Auburn game but they still struggle to run the ball. I expect Briles to add some quick hitting run plays and the line to open better holes.

The only time we've moved this sticks consistently this season was when we leaned heavily on Trelon Smith against Auburn. His productivity allowed Franks to get comfortable. I hope we go back to that well.

I've been wondering when he was going to hit the holes again. Looks like Whaley out there right now.

Gotta admit, was pretty dissapointed in the O vs Ole Miss.

Needs to be a lot better for us to win against A&M.

Oline just needs to get stronger. They got a little bigger, but a little more wouldn't hurt. They just need to continue getting better.

Knox needs to rediscover that he can catch passes and make plays too.

If both of our big WRs were making plays then we would suddenly find lots of open real estate to work with.

Yup. His biggest play of the season so far has been that dropped 2-point conversion vs Auburn. That isn't ideal.

Skies the limit if our Offense and Defense show up at the same time. We would have demoralized Auburn and Ole Miss had that happened.

Knox is the biggest surprise on offense, and it isn't a good one.

We need a more physical TE and another threat WR. The OL needing to embiggen is a given...

I expect the offense to need to win us the texas am game. Texas am is pretty salty. They're undisciplined though and make mistakes as well as their coaches clock management skills appear atrocious but they're loaded with talented playmakers. I expect them to be the best offense we have faced to date honestly. Ole miss is good and all but texas am is less one dimensional in my opinion especially if they don't have to play down 20 pts at half time

Briles took a step in the right direction when he cut out the sweeps and reverses.
