Somebody posted ‘3rd and WOEmmack’Someone (might have been you) posted "ANOTHER THIRD DOWN CONVERSION" after each one in the game thread. It was truly frustrating watching the defense allow it to be posted over and over.

They are lining up in the right places, but not playing with conviction. Either they lack confidence in themselves or the defense - or both.I understand it takes time to install a new defense scheme but our LB’s and secondary look completely lost at times. I know CNS was a big man defense guy and Wommack (at least it seems) plays a lot more zone. But lord at the guys reacting late to open receivers is ridiculous.
Adversity reveals what someone is made of. This will either crush them or make them better.Agreed, they just did not play with the swagger that we are used to seeing from those guys. The loss to Vandy seems to have impacted their confidence
I have never seen one tried without a tee. The spin he put on it was unreal. I hate it worked against us but I would have been super excited to see it work against another team.Oh, I didn't see this mentioned, but that onsides kick was awesome. That kind of knuckle ball is tough to catch.
Pretty much what I’m thinking. It seems to me they aren’t seeing or they aren’t “trusting ” what they see. As to third and fourth downs, through the first half of this season, the most concerning thing is these aren’t just 3rd and 4th and short yardage. Many of these are long yardage situations That 4th down blow coverage for the TD was inexcusable.I wonder if sometimes the defense just isn't seeing what's going on. There was one play, late in the game, where SC ran off right guard on first down. We had two unblocked linebackers right there and the RB ran right between them for 20 yards. Did we not see him coming or something? I hope we can at least patch up this defense.
Coach Bryant said "run the ball and stop the run". We do neither well. A result of too many guys who may not be driven hard enough by Dr. Strength Coach. Need a Cochran type guy in there with them. I realize you pass more today but our opponents are running the ball at will on us. Kids like Oates not playing.
The adversity from last week didn't seem to make them better.Adversity reveals what someone is made of. This will either crush them or make them better.
I missed that can you give us the readers digest version?Square not holding back frustration in post game, he and Tyler know
That's disappointing, for sure.The adversity from last week didn't seem to make them better.
This is what worries me.I think this team has seen what we’ve seen from these d coaches and no longer believe in their coaching nor prep and are just trying to out talent the competition which doesn’t work outside high school.
The joe lee Dunn special!!I think we should be blitz heavy on defense and just live with the consequences. We can’t stop anyone straight up anyway. We were much better at the end when we dialed up the pressure.
