Go back and find that game thread and you'll see numerous mentions of how worrisome the OL was despite the crazy offensive performance. Those problems just didn't manifest in the result yet given the way LSU chose to cover and the fact they hadn't been exposed on film.
LSU was just bad. They were lit up several times last year. It wasn't just MSU.

The OL didn’t play for the obvious and main reason because the system was entirely different..
Let’s see how they are with a season and a spring under their belts..
and a QB and RBs who all aren’t true freshman...

tried to rep this ... I have believed all along that while sometimes maybe the play was bad that doesn't mean the talent was bad ... and as a left side offensive tackle I can say with certainty that run blocking was always easier. The problem is all it takes is for one guy to miss a zone block or get beat and then the entire line takes the blame
OXFORD, Miss. (WTVA) - Ole Miss campus police ask students to behave at future baseball games following a recent incident.
The university said students were reportedly throwing rocks at Georgia baseball players during last weekend's series.

And we lacked guys with quick feet to pass protect. It's not simply the new system. That's why we just signed so many. We might be about to sign another Juco.

Now do how many yards/game we averaged vs how many yards we had against LSU. Then do how many ppg we averaged vs how many points we scored vs LSU.

Possibly 3 jucos tells you what you need to know. They got extra time, but we need guys to play. That OL was trash. Center got killled all year and so did RT. LT had struggles all year too. The two G were the best of the bunch and they gone. I will say, we were young at the trouble spots, and Cross will be good. Have my doubts about C and RT.
I think Dolla can handle a G spot. Not sold on anybody on our roster to handle RT.

NSF my friend, we just lost him to South Carolina. Anyone want to guess on who the next DB will be that turns our offer down? We've got quite the list going at the moment.

It's going to be very hard to convince transfers with 1-2 years of eligibility left to come here and play behind Forbes and Emerson. Granted, all we need is one, but it's a tough sell.

Yea, if you are determined to have a starting CB spot. But we start 5 DBs, not a lot of folk do that. And we really have no SEC caliber corners behind those 2 guys. Even within games you need more than 2 SEC quality CBs. We are an injury to one of those guys away from being in a bad way. And we also have available spots at 3 Safety positions if we can get someone that can come in ready to play. I mean we have bodies at safety but no real difference makers.

Exactly. Probably not a better place for a DB prospect in the entire SEC. Maybe Vandy...

What a mess. Worst HS DB class I can remember. If we miss out on the big 22 targets, our defense is going to become OM like in the future. Big year for our coaches to prove they can recruit at the necessary level. Lose battles again and it could be bad.
