I do believe the trust is an issue, Cam and Les did not trust his QB/Offense....


I think Cam was a bigger problem than Les to be honest. The practice thing I am not sure it is a big issue. I think Les understood practice and when to work hard and when to have fun. He was old school but also a players coach.

The DC has been an issue all year, I was kinda concerned because 4 games in the defense did not look great. I do not know if it was because of a different coach but Les was fairly hands off on defense so the beginning of year fall squarely on Aranda.

Etling had the same type of game that he had against Mississippi State numbers wise. The defense played better and the team found bigger holes. That can be that Missouri is a worse team than State, the team was pumped, who knows really.

However, it is just one game and studies show that teams usually play better initially for an interim coach. Will be a better test next week than what this week showed.

On the special teams play. The first kickoff was horrendous! But guess what people!!! That wasn't the plan and the coaches had Gamble change is target. Moved target to the right. And it never happened again.

I just don't know which coach made that call.

We have allowed a total of five touchdowns through five games. When you have a putrid offense that cannot sustain drives and your defense is on the field for most of the game, they are never going to perform up to standard. Look at last night's game to see what it can do for a defense when the offense can move the length of the field on sustained drives. It takes a ton of pressure and wear and tear off of your defense and let's them play with fresher legs and more energy. It's not rocket science.
