    aTm's defense is a monster

    They've played 2 sec games, and they're giving up 198.0 yds/games at 3.67 yds/play. Both of these lead the sec in conf games only. Our oline isn't good, but aTm made em look much worse than they are. That Aggie team is most likely playoff bound.

    Florida
    At ark
    At lsu
    At Missouri
    South Carolina
    Samford
    At Texas

    Those road games could be tricky, it I think they're better than all those teams. They went into ND and won, so they're capable of winning all these games. Thinking about putting a future on them for sec champs

    Notre Dame racked up points on them. So maybe it is who they played so far in the SEC

    Could be the case, but I think that ND team is pretty dang good offensively.

    Mizzou is only team I see that has a chance to beat them; otherwise, they go undefeated.

    At TX will be tough for them as will any road game. not sure that QB can stay consistent, and more talented teams would have opened up the game in our first half on them.

    Maybe, I can remember watching Texas struggle offensively yesterday with Florida

    just occured to me that who are the last 2 QBs TAM faced. 2 big slow former Okie QBS who were coached by Leb who need 10 seconds to get rid of a ball.

    Haha... haven't watched Arnold any yet this season, but Shapen certainly has a long windup

    Are you blaming Lebby para? Surely you see we have a D2 line with two key Oline tackles out and very little depth. I still think we win a few more games this year.

    Not enough. No screens and no rolling out of the pocket.

    Good coaching is knowing where you suck and mitigating it

    I do put some blame on him. You have to adapt your offense and do some things differently when your line is getting killed in pass protection. I thought we got off the run too quickly too. Case in point, we rush for 11, then try to throw a deep ball where Shapen gets hit for a wounded duck easy pick. Blame can go around to everyone, including Coach.

    I'm not saying Lebby didn't or doesn't make mistakes, but we are very limited on offense right now. We just have to get better offensive players, we have 66 new players on this team and we are gonna need about the same next year.

    Their D gives them a chance. Their offense seemed kinda meh and their QB is very pedestrian. They have a shot at playoffs but won't win it with that QB.

    If you mean 'place the responsibility for', then yes Lebby is as much to blame on offense as all the rest.

    Well it was a question I had earlier this week when we knew what the oline status was, and after rewatching the TAM/Aubbie game. What was Leb going to design with a bad Oline facing a dam good rush that had just destroyed Arnold. And after listening to Matt on the postgame show where he asked the same. On the FG drive we did the right things to offset the rush and then just quit doing it the rest of the game.

    And it wasn’t so much what we did or didn’t do but no doubt the Aggies made the adjustments. They were way more talented to us.

    Gonna be interesting to see watching the Fl vs Aggie game.

    That game may end 0-0.
