Our pass attack is a joke, Einstein! Ensminger can't take advantage of a poor pass defense. Look how sorry our passing game has been all season long.

I wanted Miles gone too but O is doing the same exact shite that Miles did. Nothing has changed! It’s damn near the same staff as well!

He did against Ole Miss, which also has a higher ranked pass defense than a&m does.

Ok, you got me there. I apologize. I did not know old miss had a better pass D than a&m. That's pretty shocking. That old miss D is among the worst I've ever seen.

Oh great, here we go again. How did things turn out when we "simplified" the offense last year against Troy?

agreed. aTm may very well end our season by trouncing us. We are not playing well enough to beat them on the road.

Where is all this fear of the aggies coming from? I've seen them play a couple of times this year. As usual, they are very beatable. Check out their schedule. They lost Miss State and Auburn. We dominated State and beat Auburn. They beat Arkansas by the same score we did, 24-17. It was a home game for the aggies. We beat Arkansas in Fayetteville on their senior night. We gave up a cheap score and left one td on the field.They are 6-4 going into the UAB game. The aggies better not sleep on UAB or they'll finish the season 6-6. Tigers win this one 24-10

We barely beat Auburn in a game that could've gone either way. Auburn is not as good as A&M.

24-17.

I think the fact that it's on the road is what's givng fans some trepidation. We have struggled every game on the road, but you think we're going to win by two scores?

A&M is much closer in caliber to UF than they are to Arkansas.

Dude...

O just said he doesn't know what to do about the offense. Which is understandable. He's not an offensive guru.

Don't you want to bring in an offensive coordinator to help for fricks sake?

This is definitely not a sure win by any stretch. LSU may find it difficult running the ball against their defense and with Fulton and Battle nursing injuries, our secondary will be short-handed. If Mond gets a hot hand, I can see them scoring 28 points or more at home.

I didn't hear this but assuming he said it doesn't it cast a disparaging remark E's way? I mean we're at game #11. The best OC in CFB should have this.

What if I told you Texas a&M's pass defense was ranked worse than Arkansas?


Will LSU be able to provide adequate protection for Burrow if we can't get the running game going and he has to win the game with his arm? The environment will be very loud and with our O-line struggles with pass-protection, LSU may be in for a rough ride. A&M has a solid run defense, so I don't think we'll be able to count on getting a lot of rushing yards. If the game was at home, I wouldn't be as nervous about it.

I do not think TAM can beat LSU. We had a normal let down after the Bama game.

We will be solid against Rice and even better against TAM.

We will have another solid recruiting year. Now we have moved up to second best in the west and second or third overall in the SEC. we were picked 6th. Great coaching job by O

Fisher, Herman, Fedora. All have not measured up to Orgeron.

I caught that typo and corrected it before you replied.


I understand playing on the road is a factor, but this doesn't justify the fear that has been posted repeatedly since Saturday night. I am more concerned about our injuries on the d-line and the d-backs.

Yes, if we are healthy and don't turn the ball over.

I never said a&m was as bad as Arkansas. I just pointed out that a&m struggled to beat them, in what was essentially, a home game.

Yeah, Devin White was a Miles recruit


A running back recruit that had to be moved to inside linebacker because we had no one on the roster to play the position.

Vs what Orgeron walked in and did. Flip the #1 inside linebacker in the nation from a title contender.

But you goons keep telling us how good we had it and how bad we got it now. We believe you.

I agree with you, we are very fortunate to be in the position we are in. O has done a terrific job getting us to where we are. Bringing in a QB, Kicker and Linemen were key - injuries hurt us. What I am also saying is on offense we are regressing and CEO is being honest and saying he does not know why. We must get this figured out now before it shows up as 9-3, 9-4.

He did bring in a kicker, qb, linebackers, linemen, started managing clock, and is completely honest with us every week. But I'm labeled "braindead" by some of the "higher" intellects in here when I point out that FACT. And Orgeron is getting ripped by these message board slobs that use his honesty against him. He should just give endless non-answers and show he couldn't care any less what anybody thinks. You know. Like Les Miles did.

What I've never said, is O and E have a perfectly sound offensive gameplan. They do appear to need help with scheme. But even the weakest of schemers will look good next year when we return our entire offense.

The screens getting blown up all the time would seem to be one clear example of coaches not putting their players in the right positions. They also appear to be saying that they couldn't beat teams adjustments to their offense. Which seems like a very reactive observation vs proactively changing things up and not being predictable.

So absolutely. Bring someone in.
