I agree, there are times we come out of the gates with ridiculous fire like Bama in 12 and SC last year, and there are games where take a gigantic shite all over the field for a first half. There doesn't seem to be consistency in the buy in and intensity from the players. This might be a player leadership issue too, but ultimately it falls on him. This year will be telling I think

I feel like we own 90% of first quarters that Sumlin has coached. We almost always seem to be up out of the gates.

USCe 10-7
Lamar 21-3
Rice 7-0
SMU 17-0
Ark 7-7
State 7-14
OM 0-14
Bama 0-10
ULM 7-0
Auburn 14-14
Mizzou 3-3
LSU 7-0
WVU 20-14

So in a year when we went 8-5, we went 6-4-3. Okay so not as good as I thought. Maybe I'm remember the previous years more so.

Skipping OOC
Bama 14-7
Ark 17-7
OM 14-7
Aub 14-10
Vandy 21-0
State 16-7
LSU 0-7
Mizzou 7-0
Duke 3-14

Assuming we won the OOC that's a 11-2 record in the first quarter.

It seemed to get worse this year, the first halves of OM, Arkansas and Bama were straight painful to watch. MSU we marched right down the field and just took a shite everywhere right after that it seemed like. It might not be an intensity issue instead of just a focus issue, I dunno, and again I know the veteran leadership wasn't there last year.

Overall it just doesn't seem like the whole team was buying in. This year will be really interesting
