Funny how putting up a lot of yards in a loss means something now. We've put up a crap ton of yards in some losses but we sucked b/c we lost.Quote:

I don't think anyone on here has called them great or elite. Atleast I hope not.Quote:

I have seen enough of us on the road to know that we will get boat races by OM. Why I spent $300 on alcohol for this thanksgiving trip
I never would even if it were true.Quote:

Penalties, an enormous number of turnovers, an inordinate amount of screwy plays, etc. Those things have to happen for an SEC team to lose with 700 yards of offense. That's unheard of. Now, they did have some untimely penalties that happens often with our incompetent conference officiating. Not to say theirs weren't deserving tonight....probably were. But guess who gets those Thursday night? We do. Bank on it. Activated Alpha sees it in the same light as I do. UM is not UGA, Bama, UT, Ohio St., etc. but they are really good and having to go to their place equals getting boat raced.Quote:

Yep. If they had uga and we have Vandy our records would be reversed but as you said it didn't work out. And I don't care how good or bad you have looked or how many yards you put up you are what your record says you are. Om has a better record right now by one game but if we beat themQuote:

Yep.Quote:

This loss for Ole Miss was probably as bad as our loss to Kentucky.
Everyone is talking about how Ole Miss couldn't stop the run- well they aren't very good against the pass either. If we have Dillion Johnson healthy we should be good on that front.
Stopping the run is my biggest concern.
Hell we should be 9-2 right nowQuote:

Imperative to stop the run or we're gonna have a long night. Someone said last week we hadn't beaten a team with a winning record but that's changed since then and it now stands at 2 and funny thing om has also only beaten 2 teams with a winning record, uk and Troy.Quote:

Really need to add speed and athleticism to the defense on the edges. We're asking Tyrus Wheat to do it all by himself. Hopefully we move Jett to MLB if Bookie leaves.
Losing sharp, IMO opinion cost us against uk. We weren't the same after he went down and losing Johnson same game hurt too.Quote:

So y’all better get off your wallets and give $ or lower your expectations because that’s the college sports world you live in.
8-3 if you swapped out Georgia for Vandy
Yes.Quote:
