Defense, or the lack thereof...

[Beerbully]

You know your defense is very, very bad when your opponent's punter never sees the field. Such was the case last week against Arkansas. I hope Mullen will at least tell Sirmon to do something different in Saturday's Egg Bowl. I'd rather get beat blitzing every down than watch our linebackers sit back and get pushed around all day again. I'm tired of hearing about injuries and inexperience. Put eight in the box and rush at least six, maybe seven every down. Don't just defend. Attack.

Agreed....youve got an unstable, young qb that will make mistakes if shaken, particularly early. But he'll eat us up if you give him time/room. Blitz from the outside....keep him in the pocket.....spy a mlb.....NEVER send 3!
Control tge ground and wear them down for most of 3 qtrs....then open up when their tired in the 4th. Thats your game plan for a 30-13 win.

Which game(s) did MSU hold opponents to 13 points? Asking for ALL my friends.

Knowing what will happen, it'll be 3 (or less) rushing, soft zone, nobody lined up within 10 yards of the line of scrimmage.

Nah, Rush 3, play Tampa 2....

Put Richie Brown 1 on 1 with Evan Engram...this is Dan Mullen D

Yep. I can't imagine us making any adjustments. Just like we didn't rush a hobbled Bo, we will offer Shea the opportunity to burn us all day.

I hear Holloway is gonna give it a go so I guess Aeris will hold his helmet half the day. Sick of this ****.

What are you sick of? The last time Aries and Holloway played in the same game, Aries had 24 carries and Holloway had 4.

you looking for an argument? Go tug on your wives apron strings.

If Holloway is healthy he WILL get snaps other RB's should be getting.

I'm sick of Ole Miss beating our brains in and I expect more of it tomorrow

So why didn't Holloway get the snaps last time? Aries had 20 more touches. Explain that?
