Tigers are 7th in the nation in scoring defense/21st in total defense

And just getting better.

Aranda is worth every fricking penny. Really hope we keep him.

And Southern Miss will be another good test

They are Top 10 in the country in Total offense. Top 25 in scoring offense. Really good QB

Aranda likes to play man to man. I think we'll see a lot more of that here on out. Miles liked his DCs to play more zone.

Cupcake State don't stand a chance.

Wasn't Missouri that too? Really depends on your level of competition

Mullens is legit. It may not matter if his receivers can't get open and Arden Key is in his face the whole game, but he's probably the best QB we've faced so far this season.

We have seen some good offenses and I think it is a good enough barometer to know that we are good. I like that we have seen multiple schemes and done well against them.

We face a good offense this weekend.

Southern Miss #7 total offense nationally (#35 rush; #16 pass)
