While I somewhat agree....I also know that Desper is starting, Beckwith is out of position, Malone is out, and we're probably not ultra hyped up for UTM. Plus, I can remember what we did to LSU when it mattered

Hey, I agree just win but is it humanly possible to play like shit and then not play like shit. Two of our next three games are against good to great teams. Can you just play like shit and then turn in a great performance? Playing like shit one or two times is acceptable IMO but three weeks in a row is a pattern and it doesn't look like Dan has fixed anything under the guise of we just make plays to win the game. Well then we reward the guy who saved our butts last week with a suspension this week...can we put it all together against Alabama? After our play the last month I just don't know. Dak needs to lead this team and get them in shape for next week. We will find out as a team what we are next week.

Yea, I'm usually that way too. But since we came out like shit today...let's just prevent injuries, get the win, and hope like hell we come out like gang busters next Saturday.

I absolutely am, but if our o-line played great today, I'm not sure that would make me feel any better. Also have the knowledge that our o-line dominated Auburn, LSU, and Texas A&M, so I know what we are capable of and that's what I expect next week.

Check out Auburn's score right now if you want to see the difference

Against Bama, we need to play about 15 guys on defense, maybe 16, but that is it. If we only play our top 16 we should be ok defensively.

Offensively, Dak is probably going to carry the ball 18-22 times. He carried it 22 times vs LSU. J-Rob will get 15 carries. We will need to stay ahead of the sticks on 1st down and convert on 3rd downs. Its going to take our most complete game of the year to pull out a win in Tuscaloosa.

Come on dawgs... Finish this drive and get dak out of there on a good note

Forgot they get ball first

Please retire, Musberger.

Our DL should be ashamed

I'd just like to say, we have a very good "bend but don't break defense". That being said, there is absolutely NOTHING "psychotic" about our defense.

It makes me psycho

SMOKEY!!!

Musberger needs to go change his diapers and call it a day. Him bashing Graham is a little uncalled for on TV.

Very much agree.

Instead of "psycho defense" it would make much more sense to name our defense "The Strategically Sound Unit". This would place the expectations in the proper place

I wish Shumpert could get more carries here instead of Holloway. Wasting reps by giving them to Holloway IMO.

Dak needs to check down to Holloway there, he was wide open in the flat

Desper played better against A&M than today
