very disappointed that Mubenga is considered even close to the best we have a LG


Mubenga improved with every game he had to play late last season.

I can't remember what your opinions are on most things here, if they're good or not, but there's something I like about when you post. Can't put my finger on it

Apparently MVB was banged up too. Throwing hand had two fingers taped and was not throwing. Although, if we were to need him in two weeks time it would not be great lol.

Yea it’s really amazing how backseat drivers know more than the coaches.

Did he?

I seem to recall him having the worst PFF grade for the offense in the bowl game and his poor performance was noticeable from watching the game.

Players can improve but he's going to need to take a massive jump to be serviceable.

Was it improvement, or getting to play Vanderbilt and Oklahoma?

Do game to game.


I’m sure his TAMU grade was absolutely awful. He was much better by OU

The Sooners ranked 19th nationally in Total Defense last year. Anyone who watched them last season would tell you that defense isn't what caused them to have a down year. Ask Jalen Milroe & Bama.

I just showed you that last game of the season. He wasn't bottom 5 against Arkansas or Oklahoma so thats good.

Look, you said you don't get the Mubenga hate. I'm just explaining it to you. Over the course of the year, he was LSU's worst graded player. That's why some people aren't super high on him.

So what is going on with A Anderson?

I have been on the side of just saying he is injured and working back. But it is getting to be weird he only is getting 3rd team reps. I’m just wondering if it is something more…

They are gearing up for Clemson and seems like they are preparing for him not to play.

Ahh, yes because it is impossible for a redshirt sophomore to develop, grow & get each season. He might as well give up football, go back to the Dominican Republic & start back playing soccer again.

So he graded out significantly higher than his season average and was better than tryee Adams who no one has concerns about.

That’s not including games like OU against SEC opponents which by your omission means he probably graded out better.


Yet many times people reflexively say he can’t start.



Yeah. I still don’t get it.
