Yeah, we did wear out but it had nothing to do with stopping the run.

You had the ball for 42 minutes and ran nearly twice as many plays as we did. Why? We had 5 turnovers and only 10 first downs. We had 6 3 and outs.

Despite our defense spending over 2/3 of the game on the field, you averaged 3.8 yards per carry and it was lower than that early in the game when the D wasn't tired.

We have no problem stopping the run. We are 3rd in the conference in YPC against.

I was at the Mizzou-Georgia game and the problem was not our defense but our offense. Georgia did pile some yards up but when a offense is either going 3 and out or coughing it up most defenses will eventually start giving up yards. Early in that game Mizzou's defense was for the most part stopping Georgia.

Plus even if your argument is right and Georgia just ran wild on Mizzou, one game does not a season trend make.

If that were true then I guess the Rams are better than both Seattle and San Francisco as they have beaten both this year. As a Rams fan I can assure you the Rams stink, Seattle and San Francisco just had bad days. It happens, it doesn't mean those bad games are a trend.
