and they needed all the turnovers vs Ole Miss


I'm confused here, you're blaming the offense for the Ole Miss game? The defense gave up 462 yards and the offense had 427 yards. The turnover battle was 3:4 in our favor.

I don't think this offense has to be as hot/cold and predictable as it appears, I just think the throttle is held down to prevent mistakes.


Sure you could argue that, but I would take the other side and say mistakes hold down the offense and make it hot/cold.

At home, our offense made few mistakes and we were very hard to defend. On the road we made an abundance of mistakes and that makes your offense more preditcable.

Take a look at our Offensive production in our 9 biggest games this year. At home we averaged 31.8 points and we only gained less than 400yds once, 392 against MSU.
On the road, we averaged 15.5 points and only went over 350 yards once, 351 against Auburn.

In those 5 home games we gave up 6 sacks, on the road we gave up 11. This year our offense played only as well as the O-line did, no amount of creativity would fix that.
