That?s the main issue. It?s not that Ole Miss is that great, it?s that we don?t show up for road SEC games.

Exactly. I said it earlier in the thread: we've seen this before. OM gets murdered in Arkansas, then turns around and makes us look like clown shoes.

Only when it supports their argument. Now Lane is an offensive god. 3 years ago everyone was on here laughing at OM for hiring him.

This is what many seem to be dismissing. WE ARE ON THE ROAD THURSDAY. Against a team that just dropped over 700 yards on the road in the SEC. They did lose which is unfathomable with that much offense. Which obviously means something quirky worked against them. 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.

If we had their schedule I think we would be 9-2 right now with a win over Arkansas and losses to Alabama and LSU.
Not the way it worked out though

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 them
Thursday(and while I think we have a chance they definitely have the advantage playing at home) then despite all the slobbering done over om all year we will have the exact same record with us playing a much tougher schedule.

That and as far tonight goes and yards- Arkansas's
defense is pretty bad. Not real shocking that they wilted with a big lead.
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 now

Om defense has not been good against run or pass this year. And you're right if we don't stop their run game we lose no question. If they can't run they're pass game don't work. 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.

I mean give credit for Kentucky and LSU showing up in the 4th quarter no doubt, but man both of those games could've easily been about 21-0 at halftime in favor of MSU.

Can't argue with that at all and it definitely hurts because the lsu game especially was under control until the td drive at end if first half. They should've had zero points at half but we screwed it up and uk too.

Could have.
Our team needs to improve. Losing Dillion hurt the offense a lot. I hope we move Tulu to the slot because I think that would help us out a lot. He's much better in space than he is going up against cornerbacks.
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.

No, we shouldn’t. Our record reflects our talent level, we may even have a record above what our talent level is.
If we don’t get some defensive and offensive linemen in here plus find a qb quickly…it’s gonna be difficult to maintain seven wins.
So y’all better get off your wallets and give $ or lower your expectations because that’s the college sports world you live in.
