LSU is still a bit of an unknown. Blowing out two teams but blown out in the 4th quarter of the first game by the only real challenge so far.

Next three games are must wins (Arkansas, Ole Miss, Missouri) because they can't win the division but can essentially disqualify the potential to win 10 games. Last six games include Auburn, Alabama, Florida, and A&M.

Above-average QB. The worst running game I've ever seen in my near 40 years as a Gamecock fan. A schizophrenic offensive line. Talent on defense but very little depth.

We don't look stellar but we don't look awful either. Our team is very resilient. We seem to really hit our stride in the 2nd half, which I prefer to last year when we hit the 2nd half and couldn't do anything.

Defense is garbage. Offense is great if the starting QB stays healthy

Waiting around and doing next to nothing in the 3rd quarter, then coming out and popping off for multiple scores in the fourth is dangerous as hell.

Consistency is a question. Glad to see Texas finish strong in games so far, but need to play all four quarters.

Mediocre QB at best. Wide receivers can't get open. Offensive line is still weak. Maybe a couple of potentially decent running backs but it will be hard for them to shine behind this offensive line.

Some say the defense is OK but we have played U Mass, California, and Samford so how can you know anything from those opponents?

If O-line can gel we’re looking at a banner season, if continue to be pedestrian then 8-4

Showing some improvement on offense, but still too many mistakes all around.

Defense also looked better overall.

But competition was light.

Etienne is RB1.
We are going to get burned on long TD passes at least once a game in SEC play.
Still convinced Napier needs to give up the offense next year. Pass play design is just not good.
Mertz showed grit.

Defense looks great. Offense is a work in progress.

We're work in progress with a new QB and a lot of young players who need to step up to fill big shoes lost to the NFL.
They had a gut check vs SC and came through in the second half but we don't look like a playoff contender at this point in the season.
We will probably win the East but I won't be surprised to see a loss @Knoxville.

Milton doesn't have it between the ears. We will suck as long as he is playing.

A team goes as its O-line goes.
Ours is not performing at SEC level, and it shows.
If there was massive improvement there, we would be competitive.
I don't see that happening this year.

We have more problems than Hunter Biden. But Roll tide anyway.

Have to clean things up on the discipline end. My worry is we’re running out of time to do so.

Overall not bad.

I have no complaints. Offense looked about as solid as anyone could hope for. Defense is improving

Mississippi State stinks.

Bottom line, the experts were right, last in the west unless someone is worse? Is that even possible?
