Early line has it Vanderbilt at -10. Are we really that bad?

In fact, we dominated them last year. We just had the worst punter in the SEC punting that day for us.

Surely, you realize that things are completely different this year. Last year was a defensive struggle that we won 17-14 with them only gaining 45 yards rushing. Ummm ... It's safe to say that we don't have that defense anymore.

But, you're right. We could win. I just wouldn't draw that conclusion based on what we did last year.

Their offense is bad enough that even our defense should be able to keep them under control (and our defense is really really bad). I'm not predicting a win, but I think we'll cover 10.

We are that bad. Any team that can pass competently is going to expose our CBs. Damien Anderson is clueless. I'm not sure he's a SWAC CB. And we have no QB either. I'm afraid we're looking at 1-11 based on those 2 positions being so shitastic.

We will make the adjustments needed, and our offense will improve every week as well as our defense. I think people are giving up on the season way to early. I think Auburn is a pretty good team. Just b/c they were picked to finish 5th in the West doesn't mean they aren't good. Hell, they could end up being a top 25 team before it's all said and done.

Agree. I think Vandy is the same Vandy they were last year. You're going to have to beat yourself if they are going to beat you by double digits. I don't think their offense is going to do a lot this year. They're going to need turnovers to win games.
