e808 3,028 Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 The head scratching thing is does it matter if the talent is upgraded when the play calling and scheme on defense is less than stellar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbone4jc 2,250 Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 Love all of these arm chair defense coordinator's that think they have the answers for our defense. Just hilarious. Absolutely amazing. Does anyone here observe what goes on at practices? Maybe we don't have the talent to play press man? Maybe, from games already played how we got burnt when we played man and blitzed? 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest MustardSeed Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 Well there are positives. bo has looked better other than the one I’ll advised pass Receivers have been catching everything thrown their way O Line is giving a pretty clean pocket. Defense has held them to 10 and usually plays better in the 2nd half even though the playcalling here has been awful. Mason might change that up (more like BETTER change that up) We looked pretty sharp for an 11am game. Maybe we are breaking that curse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shabby 1,958 Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 Arkansas has 10 points at the half. Off of an interception no less. Auburn's problems arent related to the defense right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoALtiger 3,875 Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 The D finally broke as we all knew. Man it’s frustrating watching this soft stuff. I’m willing to give Mason a chance but I’ve got my doubts about him and his philosophy in general. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derek Mason is a good defensive mind regardless of people on here bashing him who have never played a down of football in their lives. I’m curious to see his adjustments in the second half.

AuCivilEng1 11,115 Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 We just need to clean a few things up and we got this one. Keep feeding the TE’s and open up the kill shot for Tank and Hunt. Defense needs to get off the field on 3rd and contain KJ. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We 6½ games in and have yet to come down with one. I feel like I'm taking crazy pills It’s mesmerizing. I think they have the momentum and this may not end very well for us. In thinking back, wasn’t our secondary supposed to be a strength this year? Seems it is been a liability of late. Granted, you have to put pressure on the QB, but when we do that doesn’t translate into much either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AUStew87 327 Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 Got to get the RBs going in the second half. The lack of explosive plays out of a group that has so much talent is frustrating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
