At the risk of getting brow beaten, banned or put on a list, please tell me what you mean by this. I honestly don't know and am just asking.
In my opinion we came out throwing and threw too much instead of trying to run, our bread and butter. We averaged over 4 yards a run. We continually threw incompletions on first and second downs and got behind the chains. We also threw incomplete on multiple 3rd of less tha 4 situations.

Amen. Some of you should have learned your lesson after the way we got our ass kicked. We still will trout out far too many T Cleveland's and L Durr's etc who are average at best and will struggle against teams like Georgia and Auburn who are loaded with 4 and 5 star studs

As fans we can do this. The team can't- and I think Dan failed miserably with that this week. I say that because Dan and some of the players said that we didn't practice well this week. I don't think Georgia is as good as we made them look and I don't think we're as bad as we looked. It sounds like we didn't have the focus and intensity that we had the first three weeks and we have to get back to that this week.
I expect us to play much better after we got embarrassed.
Our team needs to learn how to handle success better. Which means the more success we have the more intensity we have to have every week because people are going to be looking to knock us down.
Beating LSU is only one step towards the ultimate goal. And absolutely we should be proud of it and celebrate it- but by Monday our team needs to get right back to focus mode. And no, I'm not saying that they didn't try- I'm saying that they didn't do it well enough.

I keep seeing this, but how many 4-5 stars did LSU have? Or Ole Miss when we beat them down last year in Oxford? Probably more than us. I think this loss was more about lack of focus and going on the road up against a motivated opponent. Yes stars matter but there are other things that come into play as well.
