You are the only one that I've heard say that Ole Miss doesn't have a great offense.

Ok. I dont really subscribe the the current trend of sensationalizing everything and making everything binary: great or horrible. Ole Miss O is not great. It is ok. It is good. That is about it. Do you think their offense is great?

Yes, I think it's pretty damm good. I don't know about depth and what happens if they sustain injuries, but their first team has pretty much handled anybody that they've played so far. Like us, their defense has let them down.

Ole Miss's offense is probably legit, Kiffin is a complete douche canoe, but he knows how to run an offense. The Muschumps and TA&M are not. See what Ole Miss did to Bama, compared to TA&M. The Chumps and faggies are second to third teir offenses.

Just the fact that you’re finally willing to acknowledge that there’s a Texas based team that should be known as the “faggies”, I think, is such a big step for us.

Anybody that thinks that the ole miss offense is just" ok" is smoking crack

It’s mostly just neteng saying this. Did you catch his comments on Lara Rutledge earlier this week? Look, he’s a terrific person, but also probably one we should be visiting from time to time at his mental institution.

A great offense. To me, that means they will be remembered 10 yrs from now as a great offense. The fact is, 10 years from now we will remember how fuchsing crappy our defense was and won't even remember anything about the ole miss offense. Ole miss has a good offense. They are ok. Our offense is better.

Imagine of the other 65 teams were playing and the Chumpcawks were rated #110 instead of #45.

In some ways I marvel at how you manage to be on the wrong side of every argument but the consistency is admirable in a way.
I'm on the side that he should have never of been hired. He's got to go at the end of the season.

It’s honestly not this line in the sand, “pick a side” argument that some are making it out to be. You can acknowledge that OM is a really good offense, that Usce may be an improved team, etc. while still saying that the defense is terrible and Grantham should be beaten with rods And have tomatoes thrown at him on his way out of the building.

We’re not playing terrible offenses. However, we’ve faced many good offenses over the years. Yes, they’re going to score on you at times. But no, you should not be giving up 5 TDS a game. I don’t care if it’s the ‘19 Chiefs. That’s totally unacceptable and needs to be addressed. If we’re ok allowing a score on virtually every possession, then why the hell are we even paying Grantham, or anyone else for that matter? If we’re conceding, then truly concede. Anyone, or no one, could manage that.

Its not a line in the sand for me except for the use of the word great. People throw words like great around too much. Lets let great offenses be great and let other ones be good and better than avg. How about this, compared to what was expected out of ole miss this year their offense has been great. But compared to offenses in college football it really isn't a great offense. There are a lot of weaknesses in that offense and not even close to great.

However, our defense is the opposite of great. It will be remembered like that because compared to all the defenses out there ... it is horrible in many ways.

That's the point. Tired of this participation award culture. Ole miss has a good offense. It isnt great.

I don't think anyone believes that Ole Miss is some all time great offensive, but they are definitely a legit offense. Which I can't say about the other two. Ole Miss might be one of the better offenses we see all season. I don't buy Mullens excuses that we have faced three great offenses. The way offensive football in the SEC has been the last decade, you take out LSU's offense last year you got a bunch of average.

But Joe Brady ball last year finally broke the deathgrip that either Sabanpower ball or 1950s Singlewing w different window dressing has had on the SEC for almost 2 decades.

At least we are finally back to seeing modern offenses again.

The SEC has been ripe to exploit all these garbage secondaries.
