I do agree but dang they've improved a ton since A&M even if they still have a long way to go.

I thought so too until the Auburn game.

Ole Miss is going to thump us. If anything to make up for last year.

I'm ok with that though, let's get a W out of LSU or MSU and all is well.

I think we have a legit shot against Ole Miss. We usually match up pretty well against them when we play.

That being said, I do agree, we need to get past UTM before I have any kind of a solid "yes we can beat Ole Miss"

I think it will be a close game, our secondary is vulnerable but Freeze has an almost superhuman ability to make lousy play calls in the red zone. The Aggies completely collapsed against Ole Miss and only lost by twenty (though Freeze did take a knee in scoring position to end the game). Given how poorly the Aggie offense played it could have easily been a thirty or even forty point blowout.

I don't think they have.

Tennessee had receivers running wide open on us all game, but we were lucky that Dobbs was horrendous that night and couldn't have hit the broad side of a barn. Seriously, his throws on their last two possessions were laughably bad.

Fast forward to Auburn, and we lose that game by 10 points if their team doesn't soak their gloves in melted butter before the game.

I'm not being a Negahog here (I'm still in Bert's corner), but it's obvious that our secondary is by far the weakest facet of our team, because even our linebackers have improved significantly from where they were at the start of the season. Ole Miss will beat us by 20 if we don't shore up our pass coverage, and fast.
