I don't think that is possible.

Exactly. 16/17 for 723 yards and 16 tds but that pick six and Saban would say,” Well he did some things, but he’s got to learn to take care of the football.”
I would love for Latu to be the next Gronk, but which do you think is more plausible? Latu is uncoverable, or the middle is confused?
“There was a lot of good hitting, and there was a lot of good things to teach from,” he said.
I thought that was interesting, not sure I’ve seen him say that before.

Well, Moody has taken the spot that Moses played last year and Harris is practicing. They both played extremely well last year. So I am not worried at this point.
I heard more about his surfer gf than him...In hindsight, maybe I should have paid more attention...
Based on what I’ve heard, the defense is going to be great if not really great this year with all the returning starters and infusion of new talent coming in.
With BY throwing 4 TDs, it doesn’t make me worry about the defense, it actually gets me excited knowing that not only is he new to the role but he is throwing to 3 new receivers, TE, RB and 3 new OL not counting Ekiyor. Metchie, Bolden, Billingsley, and Robinson will provide enough experience to help BY moving forward not to mention having Neal, Owens and Ekiyor starting on the Oline.
BY was recruited as a potential generational talent and he is a year into the system. By the first game he will have had a 2 full fall camps and a full spring to get timing down. He is probably just showing why he was so highly recruited.

Instead of saying that must have been a great play call that was well executed you went there. The guys we have on offense are really, really good. Sounds like Bryce has picked up where Mac left off.
He did mention red zone work, which could mean BY has Jones-esque accuracy in the red zone. I’ll take that.
A lot of us are still a little gun shy from the last 2 years.
Welp it’s the first scrimmage. Time to overanalyse what little Information we have without having proper context and try to project onto a season that is still 6 months away. Blue font.
I agree as far as assistants go, but also think it’s turnover in players.
What with losing mostly juniors (a few seniors) to the NFL draft, and the odd RS Sophomore (Quinnen Williams and Christian Barmore come to mind), we’re consistently among the youngest teams in the country.
It just takes a while for even the most dedicated 5-star talent to get the hang of what we’re trying to do, and the level of execution necessary to do it. That leads to growing pains, especially early in the season.
Which is why the OM game this fall worries me.
OM plays non-conference cupcakes for the month leading up to the game. They have an open date the week immediately prior. And Kiffin wants to be the first former assistant to beat Saban more than he wants to see the next sunrise.
Whatever his failings as a human being (and they are legend), Lane Kiffin is a good coach overall. Excellent as an OC and QB coach. Think he isn’t spending every day from the end of their 2020 season until the instant of kickoff on October 2, 2021 preparing for us? I do.
I believe that Kiffin would sacrifice wins in any/every other game for a victory over Saban.
I think he’d sacrifice a couple of chickens a day, a goat on a blue moon, and a body part or six the night before the game....sans anesthesia.
I have never ever understood the logic of coaches who put everything into Beating bama. More often than not they crash and burn the rest of their season doing so and end up fired. I find the narrative “coaches get fired for not being able to beat saban” to be complete garbage. No coaches get fired when they completely underperform and they can’t get their teams consistently motivated for games they should win whether they beat Bama or not. And they Look even dumber when they play bama tough come up short and they get skulldragged the next week by Arkansas.
Great point!
And how dumb does Dan Mullen look, clearly taking a sub-par LSU team for granted, devoting three weeks to preparing for us, only to lose to a clearly inferior LSU team. Thereby making the SECCG against us a moot point as far as the playoff is concerned.
After that embarrassing and undisciplined loss, the Gators could have won the SECCG, and we’d still have been in the playoff, while they still would not have been.
And that's why he will crash and burn, as he always has. He is too immature to even consider the big picture.
He may well be the first assistant to beat CNS. It's bound to happen at some point, and he's got the offensive prowess to frustrate our defense. But he will never win a championship of any sort at Ole Miss. Not because of Ole Miss, either. Because of himself.
We've already gone on to play in the playoffs one year and win the NC the next year we lost to Ole Miss and their renegade coach.
I'm just not worried about Ole Miss. Never will be. Lane Kiffin is still a spoiled child.
As for Young's great day and our defense, I'd point out that there are surely wrinkles that O'Brien has installed that the defense wasn't used to seeing.
