Basically that game was variations of 2 plays: 1) checkdown was un/poorly covered, 2) we chucked deep balls and KJ truly has an elite arm for that. So we rolled.Quote:

They're explaining it now. Kiffin plays it that way bc it's smart as hellQuote:

Yeah, but Leach never figured out Washington's 3-8. Washington on defense is probably the closest team in the pac12 to an sec defense. Wash's DC even said he loved leach bc leach never adjusted, and that made preparing/stopping leach easy. Even the biggest sunshine pumpers here have to admit that's a scary quote. Who the hell says that about anyone?Quote:

Our WRs ad QBs do nothing but rep vs man and zone, yet OM's WRs are still better at finding soft spots in zone and have better chemistry.
OM has every play we do plus RPOs, play actions, counters, zone reads, roll outs, fake one play to have a supposed lead blocker slip past their charging safeties... and they do all this vs multiple defensive looks. YET they execute literally every one of these things at a high level and we don't know what to do vs the same look we've seen for over 200 snaps this season.
It's just incredible not only how good their scheme is (there's a tool to counter any D), but how well coached it is.
I am not paid the millions but if I was SC I would go for two everytime.Quote:

Alas, we are no longer that Mississippi State team
There's a chance we don't have to take that on the chin. I want the season to play out, but I think it's a good chance it doesn'tQuote:

Is Elijah Moore a Junior? Maybe he goes pro after this year
We aren?t beating them in Oxford. Only game we might have a chance in is that final Auburn game. Drinkwitz will coach circles around leach, Georgia is more talented and Ole Miss is more skilled offensively and it?s away
Oh for sure it's terrifying. Fact is though I don't think the LSU game was evidence we have the "jimmies and joes" to run the O- our guys don't "get it" the same way we will in a year or 2. They may turn into good players once they grasp it or gain experience, but for now they aren't what we need mentally.Quote:

The question is this: can a mediocre 3-8 stop a fully equipped Leach O, OR does it have be a really good 3-8? Because if a mediocre 3-8 still shut us down even 2 years from now, then we will be lucky to go 6-6. But if it takes a good 3-8, I could see us hovering between 6-9 wins depending on our D
I think the powder blue looks feminine. They need to stick with navy blue - much better looking fb uniform.Quote:

Corral is the Heisman favorite right now? Isn't that going a little too far?
Believe he was talking about Kyle Trask. The camera just happened to be on CorralQuote:

Corral just drops ball into tight windows consistently.
When do the team busses carrying the defense get to the stadium?
The surprise of the off season could be Corral going pro. You could argue that he's the 3rd most talented QB in this draft behind Lawrence & Fields. He's dumb, but all it takes is one team.
I'm not saying he's Pat Mahomes, but his skill set is special. Arm strength, accuracy, & mobility are all there
SC defense started the game with 9 defensive players out now they have 11 guys out. They were not that good to began with. Out defense will match up well with Ole Miss Offense.Quote:

I will always remember Golden Coral for running into an irrelevant fight over a nonexistent TD in the Egg Brawl. And being dumb enough to take his helmet off.Quote:

This is an all time terrible take, as much as I wish someone would break his nose.Quote:
