    Agreed. That's a very good line for us. Means touchdown favorite with 3 added for homefield.

    Ain't NO WAY I'd bet on this team!!! We have no identity and that makes guaging us very difficult. Hell, we could lose to Kentucky. I doubt it but I'm not super confident in the win. Who's the starter? What kind of offense are we gonna run?

    Dakota will play the majority of snaps and we will continue to run the Spread Option like we have the last 5 games. We will also rush for 200+ yards- that's our identity

    If we don't , I will join the fire Mullen crew. We are a run-spread option team. So quit being cute and run the f'ing ball.

    Let's hope you are correct. You post this as if that's a guarantee. You know our identity. Does Mullen?

    Ha, that's what's funny...it is stated as fact. Reminds me of "Load up on LSU" on Friday of last week.

    I hope Danno has figured it out, but my guess is we rotate the entire game and neither gets in a rhythm. And we end up winning the game by 10-14 when we should win by 24+ if Dan would just leave Dak in there and let our team get used to playing 1 style (our best style).

    I feel very sure that Mullen does- but he wants to show some respect to Russell and still let him play. And if Russell will run the ball some- then by all means let him play some- because he can be effective in our offense if he will.

    .
    Does it remind you of A&M's defense is terrible? Or if Georgia plays their white RB they will lose? He just happened to fumble to end their chances Saturday

    South Carolina only beat UK by 7 at home. UK played UL and UF tough. I'm very disappointed in this line. I thought we would be favored by 6.5 to 7.5.

    I agree with Downward and Cadaver. When possessions are limited, any QB rotation hurts your identity.

    I agree, Dak at QB is our identity. In fact, he is our best playmaker on offense. So when Dak isn't in the game, not only do we not have our identity, we have our best playmaker on the sideline.

    I don't know about you guys but I want to see Dak get at least 85 % of the snaps and the other 15 can be split between Russell and Tubby. I also want more JRob and Shumpert power runs. I want some bubble screens to Perk.

    Am I asking to much?

    No, no other school takes their best offensive playmaker off the field 40%-50% of the time.

    We win 35-14 but even a win that convincing won't stifle the naysayers.

    Kentucky is only averaging 215 ypg in their 3 conference games on offense. We should be able to control the LOS. Should

    They also played South Carolina close as well last year. UL is over rated. UK played Florida close for a quarter and even Florida's offense blew them out. It was 27-7 at one point. Alabama was able to fumble the ball three times and play like crap and still won 48-7. UK is terrible. We win 35-14: plus all these games you mention were at Kentucky. Have they even won an away game? I know they only won once and lost to WKU. Enough said.
