re: Its year 7

Pinkel was just good enough to keep a mediocre fan base happy and not bad enough for that same fan base from wanting change. He never won anything, he didn't make coaching changes in order to improve the program or recruiting, he only gets better in hindsight. Drink has jokes, he recruits better but on Saturdays he manages to underperformed. Problem is there is no crystal ball to show the AD which replacement is better than mediocre and which is worse. Would we be Indiana or Arkansas?

Looks like we probably get Simmons back next year.

Pinkel wasn't great with the adjustments either. On fact Drink and Pinkel are very similar in their actual as long football acumen. Both were outclassed often, and though likeable men, neither were known for top level coaching skills.

Need a complete review. You can't just throw that out there without specific details.

Oddly enough, this game worries less than the previous 2. No way Ole Miss recreates the LSU atmosphere. No Ole Miss fan was pissed at Simmons for leaving, they were even happy with Lee going with his friend.

Ole Miss hangs with Mizzou early, but the difference in roster starts to show. The Mizzou run game takes over which limits Chambliss. Mizzou 41-14
Depends how ESPN wants to play this. Do they really put the SEC at a disadvantage or do they pull strings and push more SEC teams through. They control the CFP.
No matter how much you spend, QB play dictates everything.

Unfortunately Roberts is the 3rd down back because of his pass protection and size. Everyone after him is 5'8". Losing that kid to the portal to Louisville hurt with Hardy going down.

I agree. Edward's needs to establish his timing with the OL. If Roberts takes 1 bad hit, Edward's won't be ready. He ran for over 1000 last year, but that was for Houston Baptist. He needs to se SEC speed.

I remember Shraders Junior year, he looked bad. But we all know what happened the Senior year. Getting that timing down helps.
Connor Weigman in the ton 30% is not a good look for A&M

Lee can play 1 more. They get 5 now.
We don't play shifty teams on purpose. A&M and OU looked daunting when the schedule came out. Florida nosedived, we need UK to not slip before we play. Is Texas now broken? Only team we can count on is UGA. And we figure out a way to play tough even if we don't win.

The home field is messing with Lee and his cleats. He's slipping and getting off balance in the middle of running.

Speaking of cleats, anyone notice that one time Mizzou commit Morrow wore Mizzou colored cleats? He ran for 6 for 14 yards.
The difference is SEC rosters play a schedule with other SEC rosters, not Purdue, Stanford and the rest of that trash schedule. At least show some balls and call Ole Miss, Mizzou, UT and work yourself up if you can.

Sorry, not mentioning Dont'a Simpson kills me.
No, after asking the board for feedback, I denied his request to post.

Perfect game for Simmons staying next year. Mizzou won, but Simmons needs more game consistency. He needs more starts to be the true weapon his talent shows he can be.

We want Mizzou to win. If Simmons guides Mizzou past Ole Miss with Chambliss and Texas with Manning all without Hardy, he shoots up the draft boards.

None of the other so called top QB prospects throw with the anticipation, accuracy and velocity of Simmons. They all have good traits, but none have them all like Simmons. Simmons only question is number of starts, but if he manages this gauntlet that includes 2 top prospects, then we will have a problem keeping him.
