We are much better on offense.

Not as good on defense.

Special teams excellent as always

This is true, but again I think we will improve more as we go this year then we did last year because of how young some of these guys are. By the end of the season it wouldn't surprise me if our corners are even better in coverage then our guys were last year.

1. Fans won't sit down.
2. Fans won't stand up.
3. Too much piped in music.
4. Suck that Tiger Dick is not appropriate.
5. Teenagers cuss too much.
6. $90 if you are pulling a pit to cook on.
7. Coach Miles purposely sent 12 men on the field.


Oh the team....they look great.
Only weakness so far is the opponents we play...

Pass blocking for sure. Picking up the blitz. Much of this ZM must recognize, but the line has to be tip top to keep him upright.

Is Keith Reid a tad overrated. I mean he looks all world in his uniform but can't rest on his bama int. laurels. He got burned twice against Texas San Marcos after all

1) pass protection
2) red zone offense

The above two against tough run defenses of SEC.

LB's - Do we have any?

I think the LBs have played better than the line and secondary so far.

Inconsistent play


Glad someone picked up on this. There have been several occasions in the first 3 games (second quarter Saturday night) where the team looked like it lost focus and was just going through the motions. Need to get the intensity level up for longer periods. I know this will improve with the quality of opponent. Look for lots of heads popping next week on the Plains.

Pass protection

Secondary lapses

We may start a true freshman on O Line! They haven't even faced an SEC team pass rush yet!!!

The loss of Faulk hurt us

Weakness? I don't see any. There are a few areas that we need to get a little better at, and they will be addressed. And to all of you doubters, Mett goes up against one of the best defense's in the country every day, so he will be fine. And as to the pass rush of a good defense, ever hear of a 3 step drop, seems to have worked against our great defense. Just enjoy the ride, cause it's gonna be a good one.
