1) Secondary doesn't have any SEC caliber athletes
2) We won't be able to generate a consistent pass rush against SEC teams
3) OL looks soft
4) Special teams is spotty

So, basically exactly like the 2015 team with a massive downgrade at QB.

Agree with all of those and add no SEC caliber RB.

Holloway is a slot playing RB.

Malik Deer. But we're just gonna give him three targets on bubble screens and one end around and that'll be his night on most nights.

1) Not even Bryant? What happened?
2) Not with James, Simmons, and an occassional blitz? Is AJ Jefferson injured?
3) OL was the only thing the offense had going for it.
4) Agreed

We've got big problems, but they're can be mitigated with better play-calling.

It makes no sense. Williams makes a good single cut run for about 7 right towards the goal line early and I don't think he saw the field again after that.

Yeah, I could never understand these two players being placed where they are.

I don't know, mismatches maybe? You block to put Dear 1-on-1 on the edge with a CB.

You make a LB or DE have to run horizontal with Holloway to get to the edge.

I agree.
Bryant looked just as ****** as everyone else out there.
Outside of Lewis, our linebackers were garbage. JT Gray may have been the worst person on our defense and that's saying something.
Williams delivery is about as slow as Tebow's
Our receivers looked terrible and couldn't separate from a 17ing sunbelt team
Peters has got to be some kind of awful
17 it. Play the freshman, it can't be worse.

I'm not throwing a hissy fit and overacting because we played bad. This team is not good. At all. Something is missing and it doesn't look like its something we can just get fixed. And even if it can get fixed I'm not sure if we have anyone who is going to do that.
