The Good:
• Great Blocking by all 5 Offensive Linemen: Nimble, Agile, Precise.

The Bad:
• The SDE did not trail the pull and got cut off by the TE.
• The LDT appears to have stunted away from the play (unlucky?) and got completely wiped out, opening up an enormous hole for the RB.
• The MIKE only gained 1 yard of ground and did not stuff the hole.

The Ugly:
• The Boundary Safety got juked out of his cleats, which brings back bad memories of last season.

Our LBers won’t see a better offensive line all year. Good practice & hopefully they get better

The disclaimer here is that they're not allowed to light each other up, either. It looks like they were told to only play at 75% effort for the scripted parts.

Good point. This was not during the live scrimmage

I went back last night and watched highlights from the Ole Miss, Mizzou, and Wisconsin games.

Dude...Obviously we know are D was bad last year but it was incredible to rewatch.

I like Andre Sam a lot and it seems like his teammates loved him - but he was absolutely awful. Horrible angles and even worse tackling.

Major Burns is straight up lost 90-95% of the time.

Greg Penn was completely incapable of making a tackle.

Toviano (was just a freshman) but he was also one that consistently stood out at not doing his job.


What's scary is, apart from Sam, a lot of these guys are coming back and allegedly playing a big role again. That's terrifying.

Yeah.. surely after another year of experience & better coaching we should only expect the same results.

Not sure this was a live rep. It will obviously make the offense look good & the defense look bad

House was just that bad, the whole fricking D was lost on just about every down. There is no way they were all that untalented. Crazy how much of a difference a good coach can make, let's hope we have one now.

It's just as asinine to think after another year some of those guys are going to become drastically better.

One thing that amazes me about the rant is that players CAN NEVER EVER IMPROVE

Like guys get better

Guys do get better and elite coaching can absolutely make a difference.

I'm just saying, counting on half of the defense to make MASSIVE strides between last year and this year is pretty fricking ambitious.

Sometimes you've just maxed out your talent. And I personally believe that's the case with guys like Sage and Burns.

Poor tackling and poor angles from the secondary were hallmarks of the 2023 defense. Hopefully it improves through off-season and the fall.
