2024 Rankings

After 2 games, one being Nicholls our defensive ranking is 91st. Thought coaching was our sole problem last year?

Doesn’t make sense, since they only gave up 295 total yards last night. I don’t know what they were ranked last week though.

Correct...our defense got stressed by stalled drives against USC.

A bunch of teams, like Ole Miss and Missouri for example, have played 2 cream puffs.

Its going to take longer than two weeks to get a real beating on where teams rank.

That's irrelevant this early in the season.

I’ll reserve full judgement for a few more games. However, outside of one long busted QB run, and a busted coverage on a trick play, we looked okay last night playing mostly vanilla. We also looked decent vs USC. I think what we’ve seen so far from the defense is “encouraging” at worst. There are definite signs of improvement over last year.

Well, we finished 108th in total D last year, so that's a 17-spot improvement after two games. Coaching was awful last year. At least we looked halfway decent against what is normally a very good offense in USC. We looked like shite in the first half last night, but I don't expect the same intensity against much lesser opponents. It happens. They have things to fix though.

We were 108th last year - I was told House was mean to players and sucked and Baker was players coach and they loved him. IDK.

We played Nicholls with an average OL of 6’2 285lbs with a white TB - surely you jest?

You act like we played USC and Ole Miss - we would be 200th.

Coaching still is the problem. The head coach.
