re: Does Whit have another year?

Yes but he needs to go pro and try to get to 7 years in the league. Hes gonna make a team for sure but he’s gotta figure out a way to stay healthy
100
Anyone who says otherwise has no ability to delay gratification. He’s gonna be great for LSU
We are gonna let him work out his kinks. He’s a capable qb but footwork and timing are off right now. Just so happens that those are the things that go to the wayside when you are sidelined as long as he was with his injuries. It’s already hard enough for a qb to come in and adjust to a new place and system but if they miss spring and most of summer it’s almost impossible. Look for him to get better each week

OM defense really isn’t that good. They flash for almost 2 qtr and they have athletes but it’s just not good as a unit. We had every chance to beat them by 2td and just couldn’t execute

We all hated Kiffin before he became our coach. Now we all defend him. It's crazy.


Not me. I wanted him when we went after BK for the entertainment value. People (mostly retards) keep saying that you can have a championship team year one. That’s nonsense and it’s gonna take a minute to get this ship steered in the right direction but I have confidence he will get it done.
My good buddy who is a football genius said CJ lost is the game. He made mistakes on a few big third downs and multiple touchdowns

I couldn’t see them moving their best safety to star. Could be wrong, but the star position is just a glorified nickel. I expect it will change based off opponent and their offensive strengths. Will probably see a lot of changes in game at that position.


Ty isn’t the most instinctual in coverage. Haulcy was much better as of now. Ty’s size makes him good around the box and he’s much more instinctual in the run game.
Move Ty to Star and Thomas to safety. Thomas may be better at coverage anyways.
We tried to get the USC tight end before they paid him a truck load of money
We almost beat OM away going against a heisman qb. We were that close with leaving so much on the table. Things aren’t as bad as they seem
Running QBs make pass rushing way harder. Running qbs who are some of the best in the history of CFB in evasion and throwing on the run make it almost impossible. Qbs like chambliss don’t get sacked for a reason. We actually played the line well outside of Princewill getting too far upfield a couple of times considering all things.
Our demise was no offense production in the first half and playing soft zone in the first half. When we used safeties to close the space for those y choice routes things got much better. If we play them again we win by 10+ points.

Bingo. They love all the seeds and invertebrates that pop up when the marsh floods.
I’d say us by 10+
Chambliss is the real deal and will keep them in every game

re: LSU defense vs Ole Miss offense

LSU defense is vastly improved since last year. We never had a pass rush last year and that’s what Baker’s entire defensive philosophy is based around. It caused us to over use weeks and put him in suboptimal positions. Having tj dottery, arguably one of the best lbs in the country right now, next to weeks makes him 10x better. Perkins was severely holding this defense back.
Corners may be slightly worse than last year but benefield, Cooley are legit. Not to mention Thomas and Spears are potential day 1-2 nfl dudes.
This defense hasn’t been tested buts that doesn’t mean it’s not legit.

Having said that, you will be in any and every game as long as Chambliss is there. Hate to say it but he’s the real deal.
People don’t like to hear that we played a vanilla version of our offense but it’s the truth. We are much better at outside zone and barely ran it. When we did we were successful. Pistol was also working for us vs Clemson and we barely use it vs tech. No getting around Leavitt playing poorly but I think that should have been the expectations for a guy who just started playing a couple months ago.
Rest assured, we will have the coaching advantage going into next week.

A 3-3-5 with 2 5 techs is the weakest base defense vs the run that exists.


This is an over simplification. Personnel matter and selling out to run blitzes changes things. La tech also tackles very very well. That was a well coached team going against a vanilla version of our offense

re: Rewatched the interceptions

You can analyze this all you want but you have a QB that: 1. Missed some of 2025 with an injury/ surgery. 2. Transferred to a new team and missed spring practice while rehabbing. This is what you get. Even Burrows and Daniels who were fully healthy and participated in spring practice didn’t hav a great first year.


Bingo. I think our expectations got too high after last week. Growing pains should be understandable given he’s just getting back into football. Chambliss progressed throughout the season last year and LK+Weiss will figure out how to make Leavitt successful as well
Idk about you guys but I love Tenn! I’ll be forever grateful for that Chaz Coleman to Jordan Ross swap

Neither have players who have run out of eligibility
Not only is it a win but it’s one of the bigger PR wins that I can remember in my fandom lifetime. Not only do we come out looking like the bad boy identity we thrive off of but much of the national media was coming to our support. We are having our cake and eating it too. Such a great time to be a tiger fan
100%
I’ve never seen a more radical transformation from one year to the next in terms of execution, discipline, and conditioning. Theirs is zero doubt we have a top 3 or maybe the best coaching staffs in the country. Everything we did wrong last year was fixed game one even after bringing a bunch of portal guys and installing an entirely new offense with lots of nuances.
