Every team in the NIL era is definitely flawed, and each team is flawed in a different way. There are teams that are a matchup nightmare for you based on your flaws, and Florida is that on steroids for Ole Miss. they have a big physical O Line and a big physical RB who sheds tackles. We have struggled with those matchups recently.

This is what killed us in the Miami game last year, we knew they were running it up the middle most of the night and we still couldn’t stop it because their O Line killed us.

I do also think Florida really is that good running it. If any team can stop their run I think that QB is not good enough to win them the game, but there may only be a handful of teams in the country that can stop 13. Florida had like 200 yards after contact yesterday.

GG gators yall beat our arse

Baugh is a beast, but Buster Faulkner was probably the best hire any SEC team made this year.



This. They had one play where 4 guys were in motion crossing the middle of the backfield. When you combine that level of misdirection with a back and line as solid as theirs, good luck.

Baugh is 50 yds per game ahead of Fluff Bothwell who is in 2nd place.

You just named every team in the SEC not named Georgia, Texas or Ole Miss.

Enough evidence for Baugh to say he's the real deal. Our backup had a field day, too, which is good evidence the run defense wasn't very good over there.

Philo is definitely our limiting factor this year. If anyone stops our run game can he do enough to win?

Questionable. Seems like a game manager not much more. We shall see.

We have elite WRs and OC so that should help him when the time comes.

Ole Miss DL looked good vs LSU


LSU ran for 130 yards in the second half against Ole Miss. The crazy energy to start the game was huge for them in the first half. This Ole Miss run D is atrocious.
