Are we agreeing that if we have great defensive performances against Miss St and Auburn we reserve judgement about the defense till Bama?


We shouldn’t be saying “We’re back” or anything like that right?

Auburn has a good defense and it’s in Jordan Hare

If we have a great defensive performance against state with Kamario and Fluff playing then that is absolutely something we can hang our hat on as improvement. That’s a legit offense

I don’t think “we’re back” is appropriate this year.

“I’m not quite dead yet” feels more like it.

KT1 isn’t playing most likely.

Yea state with a limited Taylor or no Taylor isn’t a test of our D.

Auburn isn’t really either as they have looked real bad.

So yes I’d agree bama is the true test, they have a much better running game now and Russell is running the offense well, he does make some dumb mistakes but he is traditionally a problem for baker.

Bama is really the only true offensive test currently left on the schedule.

State - limited or no Taylor
Auburn - brown could be a problem but they look real bad on offense
Bama - best offense left on our schedule
Texas - mid at best qb and they are more a defensive team at this point with a ton of potential on offense, arch feels like a perfect qb for blakes D to eat up.
Tennessee - offensive line that is maybe the worst in the sec and their offense stinks
Arkansas - basically has quit and they have no offense.

We have zero business not coming out of this with only 1 more loss. Two toughest games at home, one game vs a legit offense which happens to be at home.

See this is my thought. Sky isn’t falling. I think we can beat Texas. Injury barring I see one loss to UTk or Bama.

I mean we were scoring so I don’t see the offense as the problem personally

All we as fans have left to look foward To is upsetting Alabama and Texas. Other than that this season is over thanks to Baker and his sorry arse defense.

Auburn’s run defense is abysmal. This is one of their weaker defenses of the past couple years. They got torched by FL. Tennessee is the only decent team they’ve contained and their passing game sucks

I can already see Keelon Russell running down the sideline for 40 yards against Baker’s dumbass.

We just got our shite pushed in by Kentucky. I'd say everyone is a test at this point.

depends on if Taylor plays for Miss State or not.

Even if Taylor plays it’s not likely he is going to be all world. He will be more like he was vs bama. Maybe slightly better since somehow bama has a better DC than us
