From Dart’s post game press conference, doesn’t really inspire confidence

did anyone go to the game? It sounded insane on tv.


Like I said a few days ago-I am glad I do not bet on sports. And throw stats out the window when it comes to LSU-Ole Miss. I would not have guessed Nuss would go full retard but the defense holds its own.

this take might be way off base but I am somewhat surprised Kiffin has ridden with Dart for so long. With his reputation I think he can upgrade from Dart.

Prieskorn (1) and Juice Wells had a combined one catch for 9 yards last night. WTF?

Happy for these guys..they can write a hell of a book on how to negotiate and fleece NIL collectives for over a million bucks between them

It’s not fleecing if they’re not throwing it to you. That’s just poor game planning.

Juice Wells


He’s a big bodied receiver who gets thrown a lot of 50/50 balls and come down with none of them. We should get a refund.

I was there and it was the loudest game I’ve ever attended. I was in a box with LSU buddies and my gf and I left after the second drive of the 3rd quarter as I knew what was coming. Our red zone offense was pitiful and my PTSD from previous games served me well by getting us out of there early.

And I thought the same thing about Dart..I’d have given the backup a drive

Prieskorn and Watkins are averaging one catch per game. Wells is averaging just under two a game. Something is terribly wrong with this picture.

Yeah, Juice is just not good..doesn’t look engaged, drops balls, flat affect and unless Prieskorn or Bentley slept with somebody’s daughter, their lack of throw attempts is coaching malpractice

Well it's pretty simple. You let them hang around within striking distance despite several opportunities to open up a bigger lead, then a tired defense couldn't make a play to bail you out.

Outside of the D-line I don't think any group is national championship caliber. That being said, it is a playoff caliber roster that should beat Kentucky and LSU (yes, the Tigers have a lot of talent but they have not been impressive and this is clearly a transition year for them).

Rushing 3 or 4 guys all game really tired the secondary out in the 4th quarter. Those guys got gassed late when they tried covering those WRs when the QB had all day to throw. What’s really frustrating is the offense and defense both have had opportunities to close out both Kentucky and LSU games. Also whoever decided to not play Bentley deserves to get fired. He’s by far our best player with the ball in his hands and maybe could’ve been the difference in both games if we used him more.

I’m gonna say what we are all thinking

The lack of RantingRebel chiming in with insights tells me something must be going on inside the program . And not in a good way.

His disappearance during the heart of the season when the gossip could have been especially juicy is quite odd for sure. If there is something, I could easily see it having to do with the Bentley thing. But who knows.

The silence is deafening.

Kiffin is getting real close to losing the players and the fan base quickly . Adding to the growing pile of shite we have to put up with him.. I’d love to know what’s really going on Inside the football building.

I agree. I think Ranting hasn’t been around because there must be something simmering under the surface that he can’t talk about. So he’s just gone dark.

As a general fan I don’t see anything that obviously spells locker room trouble or anything like that. We certainly bought into the hype and rightfully so. Lots of money invested. But there’s no doubt a handful of guys have been mia or done very little. But we still seem happy enough to dunk on the sideline so if there is dissension in the ranks somewhere I don’t see the signs.

Kiffin to Florida seems the obvious answer. Obviously we all know Weiss and company are garbage, but for the offense to regress this badly with a third year QB and an infusion of talent( or at least wasted money on what we thought was talent) it just seems like we’ve got another 22’ situation on our hands where Kiffin has lost focus on his current job due to looking ahead to his new one. He already has a track record of doing this. In 2016 with Alabama and in 2022 with us. Dude can’t help himself.

I don't think the offense has regressed. We've had the same struggles since year 2. Our offense just does not put teams away when it has the opportunity. We were killing them and then we shite the bed and give them 10 points right before the half.
