    You got my attention, Pirate...

    I don't think A&M is that great with this QB, but I still didn't expect us to move it on their D. We did. Yes, they played more man than most have been, but we still exploited the zone a good bit today too. I'm far from "sold" on Leach here....but he most definitely has my attention at the moment, and I saw some things today that I could get used to.

    I'm not saying we beat Bama, but proper Air Raid can neutralize Bama's talent.

    Our defense isn't going to stop them and I'm sure we screw up on special teams.

    I do hope we get Saban frustrated though.

    Agreed.

    Despite the narrative that some are pushing we moved the ball on the drop 8. Yes several big plays came against man but quite a few big plays were against the zone.

    The haters make a few good points, as do the apologists. I’m sittin here…not a huge fan of this style…seein some improvement and hoping we can win some more games.

    Bama will beat us 42-24, but they're defense will look very ordinary vs us. It's just what this offense does to defenses when they only rush 3 & play on their heels

    Just gotta be patient..... Bama just embarrassed an offense that isn't full of youth like us. We'll need to get confidence early.

    Agree. I just think this offense puts defenses in really uncomfortable situations

    I’m all in in leach and always have been… BUT, anyone expecting us to even stay close to bama is only setting themselves up for disappointment. They will best us 42-10

    I think we can do better than that, but yeah, we'll lose by a lot

    I'll be pleased if we do keep it close with them.

    This offense is difficult to observe at times. When run at a high efficiency it is difficult to stop.

    Just have to minimize turnovers and penalties. We have the guys to make it work for now.

    Sadly we could be 5-0 right now. Either way there are some positives.

    Hate to be a Debbie Downer but we played about as perfect as you can and they played horrible and we still barely won. That is what scares me. We are not going to be able to not turn it over every game. It takes such an amazing level of execution to make it work that it almost is not feasible.

    That is why you always hear of Leach teams upsetting a team they are not supposed to and losing to a team they are not supposed to.

    Nah. You are wrong. Sorry. We dominated them. Maybe you didn’t watch, snd for the sake of your post I hope that’s the case. Put the keyboard away and find a hobby. Pleas.

    We didn't play anything close to perfectly. We gave up big plays, missed tackles, missed FGs. We tried a 49yard field goal because we had a bunch of offensive penalties. We did play good enough to win.

    I'm sure Leach appreciates having the attention of someone only when he gets a W when it was pretty damn easy to tell this team was really close before this game.

    You'd be better poster if you could see beyond the final score.

    What's a stupid post.

    We missed 2 FGs, dropped a few big play passes, had 20 yards of penalties on a drive to put the game away, and mostly tackled like crap.

    We didn't come close to playing our best. I love to hear your process of coming up with that conclusion.

    MSU has 5.8 yards per play to their 5.7 and MSU ran 24 more plays then them. Should've been a blowout.

    It's not a stupid post ... if aTm had a QB we would have lost this game... while I understand what Cadaver said I just hope this wasn't an anomaly because if you rewatch the previous games it becomes kind of apparent. I'm also holding out hope for this to work but go back and look at the post after last weeks game and then you fickle wolves will be a little slower to bite someone
    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.
