Charlton is more of a DE, but our D, especially LB's are very slow by SEC standards. Safety play is again very bad in pass D. DE's were hyped pre-season and unless it is the scheme our pass rush/sacks are almost non-existent. We don't have an Edge player that can cause havoc like LSU. O is soft and 10 vs 11. ST horrible. Not a coach, but 50 plus year season ticket holder. Have seen plenty of them at State and this is a bad team.

Agree with all that, but I don’t think this is a bad team. It is potentially a good team albeit 7-5/8-4 with the #2 SOS in the country and questions on the O line. We all knew that before the season began but got a lil giddy with all the “10-2 or it’s a failure” talk.
This is where the coaches earn their money. There will have to be some changes made at reciever, maybe right tackle and some defensive adjustments. More Banks instead of Duncan in passing situations for one. Just too soft overall, especially at receiver.
Against running q bs I wouldn’t mind seeing substitution for Jett in obvious passing situations/3rd down. Walley should be playing over Harvey. I thought Duck looked soft.

Jaden Walley has to be the most dissapointing player since Dan Mullen left. At the end of 2020 I thought he was going to eventually be an all sec guy. He played so good those last 4 games of the 2020 season. \
I guess him having a child ruined his future football career.

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.

It amazes me how we can send the house and not get home. It’s what happened on the fourth down play to Nabors

We went down there and did the things that we couldn?t do(drops balls, bad OL play, and turnovers). Gets you beat on the road almost every time.
And we did a bad job containing Daniels when we knew we couldn?t let him run.

That may be true and jitters may have been part of it. With senior team that shouldn't happen. The bigger issue isn't that. It is once again the lack of adjustment by coaching to counter what LSU did to flip the game. We did nothing. Would be like losing a game of chess in one move. LSU made one move and won the game. We did nothing.
My doubt is not about style (even though I don't like it and think not best) and it ain't players even though some disappointment in areas there too. It is actual coaching in game and a gameplan to win exploiting another teams weakness and leveraging our strength. It ain't happening and hasn't since Mullen was here.

There's a reason Will was a low 3 star whose other offers were Washington State, Tulane, and Troy.
He's limited. Is he the best we have right now? Probably. But for our sake, we need to hope Sawyer beats him out next year. Will has a ceiling and its not that high.

Agree 100% and I think it’s becoming clear to more and more people.
A guy who can take off and run for 40 yards would be a great luxury but......just having a good athlete that can pick up seven yards running when everyone is covered or can roll out, elude defenders and throw on the run would make a mediocre offensive line a pretty good offensive line. With the athletes on the D line in the SEC you have to nearly have an NFL pocket to allow Will to effective game in and game out......given his physical limitations.

Well, we went 7-5 last year and could have easily won 9 with competent special teams, so you're objectively wrong and very likely a complete idiot.

I'm going out on a limb and predict Leach will roll with Sawyer next year. I think Sawyer passes will in spring.

I kind of doubt that. But we'll see.

Given past history at Texas Tech, I think there will be an open competition for the job. What it depends on is if Robertson or even Locke are completely competent and up to speed with the offense and reads. Sawyer should be there next year. It sucks Parson is still in HS.

Will made some really boneheaded reads last night. A guy that could get us a quick first down with his legs would have changed the game tremendously.

Good God man, get some help. LSU is terrible and we couldn't do anything against them, (their EOY record will bear out how bad they are). Arizona is one of the worst P5 teams in the country and we couldn't put them away. We'll be damn lucky to win two conference games.

LSU at home is not “terrible” by any stretch of the imagination. Next you will tell me they don’t have any talent on defense.

I'm old enough to remember people saying this sort of thing after we lost to Memphis last year, but we went on to win 4 and finished the year with 3 wins over top 25 teams.

Last year wasn?t the year for us. We get one 9-3 win season possibility every 4-6 years where stuff lines up with a veteran QB and a solid defense. 2014 was one, 2018 again (Moorhead blew it), 2022 is one and we blew it last night.
Also we lost to Ole Miss last year, I?d gladly trade any of those top 25 for an egg bowl W
