I hate to say it.....

[Liverpooldawg]

But the media had us pegged guys. Our defense sux. This is possibly the worst team we will see all year. This looks like the bad old days of the early 80s against USM.

[Leroy Jenkins]

LOL, you realize how different this game is if that ball doesn't squirt out of Shumps arm?

[BossDawg]

Indeed. I'm not surprised though.

[scottycameron]

It's very early, think about it. Settle down, survive the big emotional charge, and TCB.

[Boston]

I guess here comes all the ***** threads when we have a little adversity.

[Liverpooldawg]

You young dudes haven't seen this crap. Us old dudes have. There is still plenty of time but we better be looking at 6-6 as opposed to the SEC west. Greg Byrne should be fired. Oh wait..... The bastard.

Were filled with "ifs" and "buts" also. No excuse. This is ****ing USM. No mother ****ing excuse.

Yep, but it did. That was our mantra in the early 80's. We have already given up enough to validate the media mantra even if we shut them down an blow them out. But right now they are kicking our ass. If we were as good as the party line on our boards was ................

Man, you must have a miserable life if you crumble this fast. It will be OK.

[Coach34]

you're an idiot. They are improved and playing their SB, we have had a couple of screw ups...and they are only winning because we fumbled before scoring

Fair enough. I hope you are right. As it stands now........

You very well may be right and I hope you are. I didn't have as high of reserve as you did to start with. Fact remains even if it winds up 100 to 10, we have looked like crap so far. If we play like this against ANY SEC team you all know what will happen.

FYI: I have been accused of being the voice of unrrealistc optimism elsewhere. So much so I have been banned on one of our boards. If I am wrong I will gladly eat all the crow y'all care to dish. I'll heap it on myself and enjoy the heck out of it. I realize this ain't the USM of Reggie Collier and Sammie Winder, that is what scares me watching this crap. Danm Gregg Bryne.

[Barkman Turner Overdrive]

I'm still waiting for us to open up the playbook from 2012.

[MrKotter]

Who let LT start a thread?

[Liverpooldawg]

We look as bad as we have looked under Mullen so far, anyone who argues differently is totally blind. It's the same over confident garbage us old dudes saw time and time again against USM. I cringed every time I read our boards for the last month. All we had to do was show up in uniform? Yeah right. 4-8 tops...... IF we play like this.

[BossDawg]

Wow.....we suck.

Or either Mullen is trying to do the whole "playing vanilla" thing. Either way, this feels like LA Tech all over.

[cheewgumm]

Our fans over-react crazily

[Boston]

THE SKY IS FALLING!!!!!! Omg******

[BossDawg]

Our fans over-react crazily

The way we have played so far I don't see how anyone couldn't overreact.

[Liverpooldawg]

I think I'm reacting rationally. I was the one saying pump the brakes all off season. Even I though the D would be ok. So far we are a 4-8 team at BEST guys. Face facts. We look like total crap in al, phases BUT special teams.

[Bully13]

halftime. gonna see how good our coaching staff is. if we don't come out dominant, I will be concerned.

[BulldogBear]

My impression is we are playing close to vest in this one offensively. If not, we are in trouble if this is all Fans got thus year. Defense is controlling line of scrimmage but are not in as good of shape as I thought. Most were gassed badly in opening quarter but seem to have settled in. My guess is they don't score again.

[BulldogBear]

Dan's not fans

Ha. Not like we didn't give them the ball in their redzone from special teams play.

Offense hasn't been bad. Just very very vanilla. Stupid fumble and a couple dropped passes. Defense looks like they are playing the whole "just keep em in front of you" approach which is terrible against an offense like theirs. It will also be terrible against 80% of the offenses we play this year if they keep that crap up tho. Sky isn't falling, just played a really crappy half. Not gonna worry about the season unless its the same story in the 4th quarter.

[Liverpooldawg]

The stats say we are VERY lucky to be ahead.
