Boy that was rough.....like TCU peach bowl rough. Maybe even more so because UF isn't near as good as TCU was last season. But enough about Florida, let's talk about us and where we are as a team. Last night was bad on multiple levels...the most concerning being the obvious issues some of our players have with coaching decisions. Did anyone see Treadwell rightfully questioning the playcalling ? We have by far the best WR in the country and yet we barely threw the ball to him. And our defense is very average at best. They aren't what they were last season. We just don't have the horses to compete for the West this year and honestly I don't really see any other SEC West team that we can beat right now. LSU? Forget about it. A and M? They will pass for 500 yards on us. State? Not in Starkville. Even Arkansas looks better. Auburn will be tough for us as well. We have numerous things to fix and if we don't we will be lucky to finish 8-4........which is the record I see us getting if we get Connor and Tunsil back. On the bright side I may get to see my rebels play at the Music city bowl here in Nashville if I can stomach it.

Some changes need to be made on the staff asap. And Freeze needs to give up the play calling. If this isn't done and we lose to tiger high, this staff needs to be fired. Better find some olinemen and LB'ers pronto.

Yeah our team is bad right now. Tunsil should not still be out for a rental car. We were lucky to beat Vandy

We have two weeks to improve (though Memphis is no sure thing if we don't play better). We need our best five O-lineman back and playing in their planned spots, because having to go to backups has killed our offense the last two years.

The five-game stretch at the end of the year was always gonna be tough. I think we can win three and be the nine-win team I thought we would be coming in to the year. Even if we're completely healthy, I don't see us running the table.

Freeze better talk to Cut, cause if he doesn't make some staff changes, AND give up the play calling, he's liable to find himself out of a job.

Where do we go from here? Well after the last 2 games, I merely hope to get to six wins and a bowl game. NMSU and then one more. Memphis has a helluva offense and our defense is very suspect. I don't see more than 6 wins.

We may need to pay the NCAA protection $$$. I mean this is ridiculous. Tunsil kept a rental car to long. WTF is going on at the NCAA ???
