We also have a ton of injuries at key positions.

3 freshmen o linemen.  2 of them true fresh.  Receiving corps is depleted at this point.   Defensively, our two linebackers arent even actual linebackers and we're starting two freshmen at safety.  

I understand our schedule has been weak, but we have also had to break in lots of freshmen and first year players to the program along with dealing with the injury bug this year.  We have essentially trial and errored our way to 7-1.  And above all else, I have yet to see this team hang their heads.  

This squad reminds me of the 2006 team.  A lot of us called for 8-4 or so.  A lot of experts as well.  And nobody was calling for us to win today unless they were wearing green and gold glasses.  We have the talent, despite the lack of experience, to win 4 of the last 5 games.  And to be honest, an 11-2 record this year spells BIG trouble for the conference next season.

Yes Ive thought the same thing....and that year we lost big vs UL and later beat WVU on road. 

Next year is our breakout year I feel.

So im just going to enjoy rest of season and hope we can get a few more wins and maybe see some improvement.

This defense is soft all around. There are no linebackers to hit run gaps

Totally. LB are non existent here. Until we fix this we will not recover

We saw this coming into the year. I thought a few of these guys would develop but that has not happend (of course injuries don’t help). I am most dissatisfied with the DB play. They just look lost at times. Today was a disaster for them.

I've never seen a defense hold an offense with minimal gains time and time again on the first two downs then  to give up a big play on 3rd and long every **** time
