[QUOTE="CEB, post: 961727, member: 4905"] Agreed! Nobody expected 3-0 start, and only the most optimistic projected 2-1. Eventually we are going to have to outperform expectations, but this is pretty much the start we assumed. The D is an issue… obviously. We have to get off the field. However, I also think we’ve run up against a couple of pretty good offenses. Time will tell… it’s quite possible that we made them look good. We’re playing a lot of guys with little experience on the D front right now, made even worse with Sylvian out. We have not been good, but I also don’t see any reason to think that we can’t get a lot better relatively quickly. Hopefully the O can help shoulder that burden for us. We don’t have to lock down on anyone, but we have to have enough timely stops to give our O a chance. The O… it’s certainly a pleasant surprise and something we haven’t seen here for a while. King has been better than expected and people are stepping up around him. HOWEVER… one glaring reality I see is that we have been “out-adjusted” in both of our big games. Lville flat out shut us down offensively in the second half. Maybe the second qtr went a little too well and we relaxed a bit, but the second half was night and day difference. Similarly, we got points on the board before the half to get within a score of Ole Miss. We get the ball to start the 3rd with a chance to really put some pressure on them. O does nothing, D gives up TD and we are stuck playing catch up the rest of the night. Something has to change in the locker room at the half. I’m not going to pretend to know anything that goes on, but in both losses, we’ve gotten whipped in the 3rd quarter on both sides of the ball. [/QUOTE]
