You're being way too kind. They've sucked. No imagination early in games offensively.

It seems that even dating back to the Tyler Russell era we were always successful at moving the ball on our first possession and usually ended up with points. This year it seems like we've barely gotten it to midfield

We scored first possession against aTm (FG). We fumbled into the end zone on first possession against USM. No score on LaTech. No score against LSU. TD against Auburn. northwestern state doesn't count.

All of these are going by memory, so correct me where wrong

TD
FG
fumbled instead of TD (not play calling problem)
And two eggs.

So 3-2 is what I have with one game that doesn't count.

This. Have we scored on a first possession this season? I can't remember it if so.

Southern Miss - Shump fumbles on goal line

LSU - Punt

Northwestern State - TD

Auburn - TD

Texas A&M - FG, Dak misses wide open Gabe Myles. Should have been TD

Troy - TD

LA Tech - Punt

Does this seem bad? Doesn't seem bad to me

We should've scored a TD on the first drive in 5 or our 7 games

That was one of the keys last year, foot on throat early, and kill the other team's will. This year, we seem to let opportunities get away early and keep games close.

We looked like we could score on the Patriots in our opening drives last year. Not quite as much juice this year
