Chris Hilton, Omar Speights, Kaleb Jackson, Andre Sam, Aaron Anderson

Nothing from any of them tonight. Maybe it’s not even their fault and maybe they blossom later on, idk but every year I get duped by this shite.

Hilton didn’t even touch the field he can’t be any worse than Lacy

If you want to be real, Perkins name wasn’t called once unless it was a tackle 40 yards down the field. Dude has made his living off of the Arkansas game.

I'm not buying into any off-season hype again. Until players prove it during the year, I am just going to assume they regress because more time for film study against them. This loss just really hurt.

Anderson was the worst of all. Muffed punt, repeated stupid decisions on kick returns.

Good scheme shows players. The offensive gameplan tonight was laughably predictable and bad.

We heard all about Anderson and literally his first touch he muffs it

It’s concerning that Lacy could play that bad and they still wouldn’t give someone like Hilton a shot.

Thought Speights was active


They did nothing to involve Anderson in the offense.

Aaron Anderson



Not trying to be an arse, but I couldn't believe how slow and unathletic he looked. For a highly rated HS recruit, just doesn't look close to the part at all

Anderson looked like he was ready to blast off on every play, but forgot to charge his battery.

He has the look and the speed/quickness, just forgot the keys to the car tonight or something?!??

Dude saying Perkins only had one good game at Arkansas. Perkins literally almost won 2 games (add ole miss) for us his freshman year and didn’t get many reps in the first three games.

I can't believe that Joe Burrow offseason hype didn't pan put.

I keyed on Speights many times and he was a step slow and out of position all night. Had a lot of tackles from behind or jumped on the pile.

No it was his second touch but first punt return touch but I get your point. Most concerning for me is Offensive line, Secondary, and Perk 4.

I feel like that was said when people were pumped about him. He was kinda of a stat compiler by being around but never really making the play.

He had a good tackle on a screen pass

The DC's game plan was a failure.

Perins was dominant in numerous games last year. Dumb comment. He was SEC Defensive Player of the Week for Bama and Freshman of the Week against Ole Miss in addition to having great games against Miss. State, etc.
