Losing a heisman finalist, injuries on the oline, a fumbling new QB in beginning of seasom, a QB who could not deal with one easy throw-but pressurized moment in the bowl-is a lot to hinder a coach. Still only 2 really bad fumbles ,2 defensive play mishaps and1bad but easy pass,from being undefeated.

If everybody would shut up including a ''team leader''the players will come and stay.

When Les seemed to be going to UofM, you know how uneasy the atmosphere was .This years offense was more of playing the hand CLM was dealt. He had 5 game killers/ that easily
shoudn't have happened-at the most inopportune times.

Auburn, A&M, and Ole Miss we were one bad play from losing each right?

Offensive staff chose not to prepare mett during all the blow outs in 2011. He could have been further along in his development prior to season starting.

Losing the HB was huge for us.

Does it excuse everything? Of course not, but when you have a 2 position AA impact player taken off your rooster...its big.

Throw in the Blue loss and the OL problems due to injuries and you gonna have a different team than the one that finished spring practice. imo

Personally, I thought the team battling for the west till the last weekend considering the players/starters we loss after the Spring scrimmage spoke well of the team.

Now, the bowl effort on both sides of the ball is a different story.
