The receivers were not open most of the time, and double covered because of only three down lineman. When you can't run the ball, and you're getting pressure using three lineman, you're in for a long day.

We’re trying to run the same offense that was ran with Jayden Daniels and Nuss isn’t a Jayden Daniels type QB. Running slow developing read option plays for a QB that is no threat to actually keep the ball and run. Makes it much easier for opposing defenses to cover down field.

I was at the game. This isn’t true at all. Receivers were open. Nuss had opportunities to scramble but didn’t. Is the OL poor? Yes but Nuss was a terrible QB on Saturday.

How many fans were thinking, "put Van Buren in"? I know I was and I'll bet there were many more with the same thought.

There is zero run threat on this team and that alone will be enough for the demise of this team. National Champs every year are capable of running the football. LSU is a joke as long as Kelly is in control.

The problem is the entire damn offense. All of it.

This is the problem and Sloan has no fricking clue how to make the D pay for defending like they did. He insists on running an O that Nuss is not fit for a d is killing the team.

Great hire, Kelly!

The receivers were open, open enough throughout the game.

Nuss missed two TDs because he underthrows the deep ball. And I saw three throws that he either threw behind the receivers or too low.

I would say this might have been the worst game Nuss has had. The 2nd half of A&M last year was also pretty pitiful. He has no zip on his long ball. His accuracy is off, and his decision making is poor. The regression is puzzling. And our head coach insists he is healthy.

This is the low moment of the season; at least I hope so. We will find out.

This is just not true

Our qb just would rather throw to the ones that aren’t open

That's his MO. He simply refuses to tuck it and run.

The WRs were not open because Ole Miss was dropping 7 or 8 into coverage knowing

1. Our O line couldn’t block them
2. No matter how much they dared him to, Nuss wasn’t going to run.

not remotely.

Something is wrong with Nuss. We aren’t going to pull him unless Nuss and his Dad pull him to save his draft stock.

We can’t protect even with 6 in to block 3. We have no RB except possibly Berry. If our D doesn’t hold SEC teams to the teens and force multiple turnovers we lose quite a few more.

He hasnt all season. That INT was just who he is, he makes careless throws. Almost had a second one later in the game when he just threw it up into triple coverage
