Our Defense Stunk Last Night
With all the talk about Fitz getting hurt, our defense stunk last night.
Yes they got some 3 & outs but they committed the cardinal sin time & time again.
OM only ran 54 plays, so I don't want to hear how the offense kept them on the field too much.
On OM's scoring drives, they had these types of explosive plays:
58 yards to AJ Brown
22 yards to Wilkens
77 yards to AJ Brown
63 yards to Metcalf
46 yard to Wilkens
There was obviously a ton of good things between these plays, but you can't win SEC games giving up these types of plays.
Our 2018 team will be extremely talented, but, unless we find a shutdown corner or get faster at that position, we simply lack the talent to control elite WRs. Plainly, this is terrible defense regardless of what the offense is doing.
You beat OM by making them drive the field & execute in the red zone. That didn't happen last night.
