^^^ It’s really unbelievable. And back to the OL, I hate to be such a downer, I really do, but it sounds like unless these guys miraculously grow up fast our O is gonna be below average at best against anybody outside of Mercer. How we’ve managed to be so inadequate in this position group is mystifying and falls squarely on Kiffin to be a master of the obvious. Two games in, we are 2-0 but my expectations have been drastically adjusted after what I saw yesterday.

Without better O-Line play, Alabama and LSU will abuse us and we'll be 3-2 real quick.

Not very concerned about Arkansas. For as shaky as we look, they legitimately look like the worst team in the west

LSU and Alabama’s offensive lines are also terrible. Just offensive line play overall is abysmal in the west

Auburn looked atrocious. I think they are by far the worst in the West.

As for the OL play, yes, I am concerned but I also think that everybody is overreacting a bit to a single game.

Our halftime adjustments were great. I'm really digging our 2nd half D.

Offensive line must be a fading art.

With the NIL and portal, skill players take up all of the time and money.

Arkansas, Auburn, and State have all looked pretty bad so far. A&M, Bama, and LSU all have more talent on paper than us but all have their own deficiencies.

Going to be a weird year in the west and an auto loss @UGA could really hurt us this year.

Quinshon’s mom talking shite on the timeline. A couple more games like that and it’ll reach a boiling point

She will have to learn to stay off social media. It won’t be healthy for anybody.

frick them. If they are going to talk shite publicly, his arse should be shown the door. He has played mediocre at best (not totally his fault) the first two games. Dart is the heart and soul of this team. Not Judkins. It’s nice to have him but he and his family think he is WAY more valuable than he really is talking shite publicly like that

Number of broken tackles this season is nearly 0. He needs to get back to his talent and work for it instead of just thinking he's a star without playing like one.

ignoring the line issues, it does make one wonder if maybe he isn’t trying as hard now that he’s already signed a huge deal. Not going to say he is just “going through the motions” since he secured the bag but it would explain why he doesn’t look nearly as good this year compared to last.

He needs some outside runs to mix it up a little. Every running play I remember from this year has been straight up the gut. We have to be more dynamic than that.

Not a great look to have our highest paid player with a sorry arse attitude and his mom mouthing off

He’s getting several hundred thousand dollars as a sophomore in college . Spare me the woe is me horseshite

Some of y’all are overreacting like idiots. Our best RB in 15 years who rushed for 1,500 yards as an 18 year old true freshman and then turned down money at top notch schools to stay has played 2 games: 1) did what he was asked to do against Mercer 2) Was hit behind the line pretty much every play against an actually good Tulane defense. Sure more broken tackles would have been awesome, but when you’re getting pounded every play in the New Orleans heat, I think it’s understandable.

It’s not like his mom called out the coaching staff, she responded to a beat writer. If Kiffin is upset at how much judkins is getting paid, he can always donate some of his $9million salary to the collective to make up for it. Because there is no way he gets that raise last year without Q carrying us to 8 wins and almost beating Bama.

Who exactly did we miss out on because we paid judkins? Y’all would have been just as mad if we let him walk in the off-season.

Good post. Olines take time to gel and we are 2-0 with an upcoming game against a mediocre Ga. Tech. I'll take it and the convincing win vs. a top 25 team that beat USC last year. 8 wins looking very achievable right now.
