Is this /s?

Yep. This is my concern as well

Not what I have heard.

Similar to what I got. Receivers good. Qb good. O-line average. Backs average. So decent offense. But defense? was just ?oh boy? haha. Just figure out how to win 6

Yall are seriously underestimating Coleman. He coached under Saban. The defense is going to be ready. Book it!

DL is watered down, but we've got a couple players there. Injuries we have to worry about.
I'm not worried about the rest so much, but CB is thin too. LB and S should be solid.

Maybe so, but we are going to be BAD on defense. Everyone has been saying it since before the spring. And we have all said the same thing…..just hope we can force some TOs

What a 17 idiot.

OOC wins will be like. ........ 55-45
SEC losses will be like ....... 35-65

Funny because we all know that is how your fanbase feels about Golding.

I'm planning on traveling to a Bowl Game with the Dogs this Christmas even it it is because their APR gets them in at 5-7. I enjoy Bowl trips no matter where to. Tampa was fun. Nashville is always fun. Heck, even Fort Worth was fun. Memphis... you get what you make of it as long as you travel in packs!
Birmingham has lots of fun places to go, just so spread out and in pockets. I never made it to Charlotte but heard lots to do there even though the game was a blowout for a Dogs win. St. Pete was nice. Jacksonville.... not enough to do downtown unless the Alumni hosts a big event. Houston is huge with pockets of entertainment. Cotton Bowl was almost as cold as Liberty Bowl against Air Force which was the coldest I have ever been in the same stadium that a September game was the hottest I had ever been!

I don't see a bowl game in our future this year. Hope I'm wrong.

This is no more desirable to me than not scoring at all and playing defensive games.

Not sure where you are getting That. We aren't winning 9 games. Zero chance.

What you're reading is what is called a "troll" job. First rule of the internet, never believe anything you read, it's either a scam, disinformation or someone pulling your leg.

If our defense is that bad, and our offense appears to be "ok to good", then is our offense even decent? Shouldn't they be destroying the defense consistently if that's really the case?

losing is losing.

Been around enough to know this means O will be slightly worse than the pre season hype and D will be slightly better than the preseason doom and gloom. 5-7 or 6-6

Well if I had to pick one to be good at I?d rather have a good offense

Y'all know what is coming this season. Don't try to deny it, you are State fans after all.
