Let me say right off the bat, that "Nothing, they suck" is a valid answer. But here is what I say: Shut out one or two opponents, hold the others under their season scoring average - VERY impressed Hold all four remaining opponents below 20 and two below 10 - SOMEWHAT impressed, but only by contrast to the rest of the season Hold all four remaining opponents below their season average - relieved, because maybe we have some talent no matter who the coach(es) is/are next year Holding all remaining teams to close to or slightly above their averages...meh...par for the course. Letting them score far more than they normally do....  Even I can't see Dooley being the coach in that case, because we will lose at least two, maybe three. |

Considering the opposition, I don't know what they can do to really impress me. If they play better than they have, I'll be glad, but at the end of the day, it's still Troy, Mizzou, Vandy and UK.

All good answers, and expected, given how bad we are.
They pretty much have to shut someone out to impress me. That would imply better tackling and fundamentals, but above all, COVERAGE.
We have at least held the last three teams we played to below their season average in rushing offense, but have been killed through the air.
Troy has a decent QB, so.....

I agree except I would change #3 to not having to catch someone from behind. |

This season is already in the toilet, I don't know if they could impress me with the opponents we have remaining.

Nothing, really. Would've impressed me if they'd stopped someone that mattered.

The team to win them all and the D to not allow a TD to Mizzou, Vandy or KY to close the season.

This really is the slowest defensive LB and DB I can remember, plus their geometry skills are non-existent. Pursuit angles are definitely not their strong suit. I agree except I would change #3 to not having to catch someone from behind.

AMEN..I have never seen such horrible pursuit angles in all my years of watching college football. There was one play in the SC game that drove me crazy. I believe it was their first touchdown. Our guy ran a straight line towards where the receiver caught the ball. Did he not think the receiver was going to advance downfield any??? Also, another thing that has driven me crazy this year is our guys have no clue how to use the sideline as an extra defender. Time and time again, someone goes down the sideline and all we have to do is force them out of bounds and we don't. |
