Welp who exactly is responsible to load our roster with talent? Miles left our roster on the line of scrimmage far behind Alabama. We had more kickers on Scholarship than linebackers

The fan base and local media created such negativity around Miles last two years and orgeron that we lost several key recruits in 2015, 2016 and 2017. Orgeron recruited to need on the line of scrimmage in 2017. Then went and got a QB and two kickers. Without the QB we probably do go 6 and 6 or 7 and 5.

With respect to our loss to Florida. It was our defense that let us down in the 4th quarter or that game is won... again at TAM our defense allows a 60 yard touchdown drive with only 39 seconds left in the game. Or we are 11 and 1. Again we did fumble a pass not that cost us. Hard to see how the Ensminger offense hurt us against TAM. Florida clearly beat our offensive line badly.

Actually very tired of the non stop crap about the OC and how much talent we have so that 10 wins is a given. Reality is we have less talent than Bama. Florida. Georgia TAM are right their with us. Some better position groups some less. We have clearly trailed on the line of scrimmage for several years. We have not had an all SEC defensive lineman in 5 to 7 years. Our recruiting class ratings and our nfl pipeline was/is heavily waited to skill position players..

You’re very wrong about Florida.

We took a 5 point lead with 11 minutes left, and we got the ball back multiple times only needed a field goal to win.

The offense punted, threw 2 interceptions to end the game.

What is Orgeron’s specialty again? Does he hold any responsibility for the defense in your opinion costing us two games?

And this whole we were so close to 11-1 bit is funny. We’re a second away from a loss to Auburn and if the defense doesn’t bail us out we lose to MSU and a dreadful Arkansas team.

That can go both ways so let’s not bother playing the what if game.
