If we ever got out of our own way on offense we'd be really good.

LSU is still a bit of an unknown. Blowing out two teams but blown out in the 4th quarter of the first game by the only real challenge so far.

Next three games are must wins (Arkansas, Ole Miss, Missouri) because they can't win the division but can essentially disqualify the potential to win 10 games. Last six games include Auburn, Alabama, Florida, and A&M.

Above-average QB. The worst running game I've ever seen in my near 40 years as a Gamecock fan. A schizophrenic offensive line. Talent on defense but very little depth.

We don't look stellar but we don't look awful either. Our team is very resilient. We seem to really hit our stride in the 2nd half, which I prefer to last year when we hit the 2nd half and couldn't do anything.

Seriously? This is an asinine statement.

You are misreading the perspective. It means LSU winning those games is necessary but not sufficient to accomplish the season goals. Ole Miss and Missouri are obviously still undefeated.

We don't do anything good on offense.

We don't run particularly well nor do we pass very well.

It's not a quality product.

Defensively we are much more cohesive. It's not perfect, but overall they play good enough.

Just a bummer the offense is what is going to ruin the season.

Defense is garbage. Offense is great if the starting QB stays healthy

We have a seasoned quarterback who has regressed or Enos is putting too much on him with the new playbook maybe. O-line is terrible which makes zero sense considering Sam Pittman is at every practice and sees the problems I’d think. We lack any type of passion. No leadership on the team. I see no one chewing arse for piss poor play. I think the defense is actually better than last year but when your offense goes three and out constantly, doesn’t matter. Our strength and conditioning is suspect. Somehow we’ve went from Dan Snipper, Frank Ragnow to a bunch of pussies who can’t move a feather out of the way. I don’t mind getting beat but to play uninspired, lazy, and have a loser attitude just isn’t what we were promised. Where is the physicality Sam? Quit being their friend and run their arse through the gauntlet all week. Those who can’t pop pads get the hell out of the program. This is the SEC, act like you got a pair and knock the shite out of people. There is a difference in losing with respect and losing without. I want to be that team that even if I lose, the other team felt my foot up their arse the entire time.

Waiting around and doing next to nothing in the 3rd quarter, then coming out and popping off for multiple scores in the fourth is dangerous as hell.

Consistency is a question. Glad to see Texas finish strong in games so far, but need to play all four quarters.

Mediocre QB at best. Wide receivers can't get open. Offensive line is still weak. Maybe a couple of potentially decent running backs but it will be hard for them to shine behind this offensive line.

Some say the defense is OK but we have played U Mass, California, and Samford so how can you know anything from those opponents?

If O-line can gel we’re looking at a banner season, if continue to be pedestrian then 8-4

Showing some improvement on offense, but still too many mistakes all around.

Defense also looked better overall.

But competition was light.

Etienne is RB1.
We are going to get burned on long TD passes at least once a game in SEC play.
Still convinced Napier needs to give up the offense next year. Pass play design is just not good.
Mertz showed grit.

Defense looks great. Offense is a work in progress.

We're work in progress with a new QB and a lot of young players who need to step up to fill big shoes lost to the NFL.
They had a gut check vs SC and came through in the second half but we don't look like a playoff contender at this point in the season.
We will probably win the East but I won't be surprised to see a loss @Knoxville.
