I want it but I just don’t think it’s possible unless we get better. And a couple of issues we have seemingly are not fixable, meaning we don’t have the athletes to match up.

I assume the couple of issues to which you are referring that are not fixable are: (1) Lack of speed- especially on the edges and (2) Lack of pass rush to put heat on the QB.

Exactly.
And if I were to add a third it would be the ability to give Will a clean pocket. He gave us one glimpse of being able to step out of pocket pressure and deliver a pass. Just not sure that truly is a part if his game at this point.

That is fixable.
Please remember, we played LSU with out Crumedy and Davis. Next go back and watch the BG game and see what's up with Davis and Russell in at the same time. Then rewatch it with some of the back up LBs. Page for one.
You put those 3 on the field against a passing team and you will get more pressure via speed.

It’s sufficient for nonconference opponents, probably Auburn and maybe Kentucky. I’ll be happily surprised if it is against the other SEC teams.

The is no doubt about it.
- Crumedy is our best DL. He effects how an OL plays our DL. That opens up more for our edge guys and LBs.
- Davis is way faster than Charlton.
- Russell is way faster than those starting now too.
- Page is faster than Jett and Booby. He's just not 100% ready for a starting role. BUT his PT has been increasing because he is getting there.
