Here is why you play everybody vs Auburn and LSU

[Coach007]

Both are beatable.

Auburn:

- They are the most over rated team in history.
- QB is throwing 52%
- No real rushing threat
- have to protect the outside.



LSU:

- gave up 120 to 1 RB this weekend from Vandy. In total, they gave up 145 yards rushing. With Hill, Gibson (who was almost ready for todays game) and Stevens keeping them honest, we ca slow down or limit the LSU offense and touches.

- You would think that Our home stadium, crowd and our defense would be up to the task of getting some stops.


Those games get you in the poll and ranked high.

We should be able to beat Ark, Ole Miss, UT, TAMU and Abilene without them. Why not give ourselves a chance?

[BhamDawg205]

Good take... Only thing we've made every team's RB look prolific so far. Do we stack box on AU and make Nix beat us?

I think we can and we can get pressure on him too. The only concern is the edges.

This is where we are missing Abrams the most

[BhamDawg205]

Earlier 3 games they ran up the middle... Kentucky found success middle and outside. One thing for sure whatever the game plan is, defense better wrap up.

[Cooterpoot]

Both are waaaaayyy better than a pretty average KY team. We aren?t winning either of those games. Save them for the ones we can win. Hell, we almost lost to KY after Gay left.

[MetEdDawg]

Sorry but we shouldn't think about beating LSU this year. That's just not feasible. I know some of us want it to be. But this is the most well rounded LSU team of the last decade. The might be the 2nd best team in the SEC.

You play them next week at Auburn because I agree. That game is winnable. Our OL is good enough to neutralize Auburn's DL enough to find success. Plus you get some continuity letting everyone play two weeks in a row. Should see some growth from week to week.

Gay gets 3 more games. Play him against Auburn, OM, and probably Tennessee. We are sandwiched between Georgia and Alabama for Tennessee. They have to have that win against us to think about getting to a bowl. So I think he needs to play that one.

[Cooterpoot]

Oregon has the highest rated OL in America and they didnt slow down that DL but a half. Our OL is solid not great. AU is better than I thought they’d be and it’s on the road. Play them vs A&M who lost vs AU. Then OM and TN.

[Coursesuper]

Just No. These are nonsensical takes that show a complete ignorance for how good those two teams are.

[TNDawg35]

Autry will play against Ole Miss and then I’d ply him against A&M. Let Willie play against A&M, OM, then maybe Auburn.

We can beat Tenn and Ark without them.

Read this tho,

THERE IS NO WAY THEY SIT A RIVALRY GAME AGAINST OLE MISS... Ain’t gonna happen...

Almost? No we didn't almost lose, it got a little closer but it was NO almost.

[Cooterpoot]

Almost? No we didn't almost lose, it got a little closer but it was NO almost.

Ok........

Ole Miss is also the toughest game of the winnable games. They are better than UT or Ark. They played a good Cal team close. I wouldn't take that game for granted.

[Cooterpoot]

Cal isn’t that good. Offensively they’re bad and defensively they were down 4 players. OM found their Pat White in Plumlee though. Let’s see how that goes. I foresee a QB controversy and some locker room issues with Corral.

No, they are not both beatable. LSU will beat us by 3-4 TD's. We can't stop the run, and I'm not sure why UK stopped running it. We struggle to beat AU on the road when we have equal or better talent. We need to keep playing the young guys and accept this year for what it is. My prediction was 6-6 when you were saying 11-1 or 10-2 lol, lol.....This year is a year where we need to get to a bowl no matter which bowl and then build for next year....I do think Schrader is a play-maker and Hill is the real deal...Let's work on getting better on the DL and sit back and enjoy the season for what it is...A rebuild....

[msbulldog]

We need to beat Mississippi more than any other. Dominance of them means a whole lot in continuing our dominance of in-state recruiting and that's our bread and butter.

[Saltydog]

Chances are slim we win either of those even if we had everyone available. It's just the truth. No, they are both going to play against Ole Miss and to think otherwise is crazy. I'd say play them against aTm. And for the record, the only game any of us should pencil in as a W from this point forward is Abilene Christian and maybe Arkansas. The rest are on the table. Now, we should be favored in some of them but nothing that is a slam dunk and that includes UT and UM.

LSU will punish our secondary while putting up 40+ points. Not beating them this year.

If we had Auburn at home, maybe, but on the road, nope. Plus, J Whitlow is a pretty good RB for Auburn

I don't agree with aTm take. We are going to need all hands on deck for that one to be a W. I would save everyone for that one, because it is much more winnable than AU or LSU though.

[basedog]

Regardless of any team playing on a Saturday, you never know when upsets can occur.

[I seen it dawg]

No way in hell do you play those guys auburn and LSU. We HAVE to win both Arkansas and OM or no bowl game. As bad as tenn is it's still a road game in sec and losable even with them all playing.
