1, all day. Beating the reigning Champs and winning the East would validate the progress and give us a major boost towards the next level. IMO.

But don’t you think #2 gets us into the playoff if we are 11-1?

Now I know why they are called the Commodores…..their stadium looks like a commode seat!!

It was the best of times. It was the worst of times.

 

[mr.checkerboards]

Yes please.

 

[Clevegasvol]

What was the drama?

He’s a headcase because he couldn’t figure out where he wanted to play college football. Also heard he likes the marijuana

What was the drama?

Attitude/handlers/NIL/

 

[MoCo_Vol]

Yeah, "Remember get your popcorn ready?" That didn't work out too well. I think Kiffin is a good offensive mind I'm just not sold OM has the talent to pull of this win.

Nick Saban and the #1 team in the country isn't the same thing as Mark Stoops and Kentucky. The two things aren't related, not sure why you're bringing Bama/Saban into a discussion about OM vs Kentucky.

I will say though, Ole Miss has 4 rushers averaging over 5 YPC right now and as a team they are putting up 280 rushing yards a game.

Edit: Nevermind, 4 times was plenty.

The Ole Miss-Kentucky game is really hard for me to get a handle on.

I think Stoops gonna try to grind it out and play keep away from Kiffy with Rodriguez back...but I don't know if their OL is up to doing that....then again, the Ol Piss defense may be easier to run on...so

Choose your hypothetical:

1. Beat UGA but lose to Bama in the regular season and SEC championship game.
2. Beat Bama, lose to UGA and no SEC East title

Assuming we win the rest, I'd say beat Bama and lose to GA. Easier to sneak into the championship playoff games.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Give me a freakin break..

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

I actually really liked the announcers we had on SEC+

Yeah...me too.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Lack of money does the same thing.

You know what I meant

I don’t think Martinez is the problem with our secondary. We just need more SEC caliber players back there. WM is able to identify talent and the players like him. We don’t need to fire anyone right now.

Cant say this enough. I think WM is a good coach, we need to recruit, recruit, recruit!!! If WM had some good backs and maybe a great S, I think we would sing a different tune!

Choose your hypothetical:

1. Beat UGA but lose to Bama in the regular season and SEC championship game.
2. Beat Bama, lose to UGA and no SEC East title

the 2nd option would likely get us into playoff contention if we handle the rest of the schedule.

I agree, I really think it just comes down to we don't have the talent and maybe WM is running a scheme that is too much for their average ability... Soft zone is not working.
I see though that we seem to be bringing in some talent on the recruiting trail, so hopefully they step up sooner than later and we can HOPEFULLY pick up 1-2 DB's with experience in the transfer portal for next season.

Looking at the Ole Miss / KY matchup....

Really wish we had gotten Zach Evans... I know apparently there was some drama, but I bet he's a little underwhelmed with Ole Miss... He would have balled in this Offense...

They run a similar offense to us although ours is more explosive.

 

[volinbama256]

They run a similar offense to us although ours is more explosive.

When I said underwhelmed, I meant more with the experience, program, fans, exposure, etc... There would definitely be more hype and exposure if he played here... I don't think I have heard Evans or Ole Miss mentioned at all this season except for Kiffy complaining about the high school facilities and lack of fans...

 

[Big Orange #1]

Choose your hypothetical:

1. Beat UGA but lose to Bama in the regular season and SEC championship game.
2. Beat Bama, lose to UGA and no SEC East title

Option 3: Beat UGA, lose to BAMA, beat BAMA in SECG!!

 

[Enki_Amenra]

You know what I meant

I do know what you mean.

 

[Enki_Amenra]

Option 3: Beat UGA, lose to BAMA, beat BAMA in SECG!!

Option 4. Beat everyone.

 

[MarcoVol]

They run a similar offense to us although ours is more explosive.

They’re much more focused on the run game than we are. We lead conf in pass (365) ypg. They lead in rushing (280) ypg and they’re dead last in pass ypg (207)

 

[Pridedad]

Assuming we win the rest, I'd say beat Bama and lose to GA. Easier to sneak into the championship playoff games.

Got to be a close loss to GA. Can't be a blowout loss where we did not have a chance at the end.

But I'm with Doc

15-0
