Great offensive effort, defense not so much

you and about twenty other regulars here

I'm more what you might call a categorical Debbie Downer. I carefully pick my spots to go all negative.

This is the closest we've come to a complete team game today. Don't care about aTm's stats, rankings, etc. This team needed to put together a good game, get a Dub, and on the road. It dang sure wasn't stellar but it was something they needed. Good win.

Critical moment in the game when Napier let the clock run down with 3 timeouts left at the end of the half.
Knowing damned well A&M gets the ball to start the 2nd half.
I thought, we were looking at 31-20 and that was ballgame.

Defense gets a stop, we get a score and that was all we needed.

Great team win, and I'll take it and move on.

I'm going to need a strong showing the rest of this season to get my confidence back in AR and this staff.
I will say today the players played better than the coach oached....this game could have been a blow out if not for Napier's game management....or should I say mismanagement....Billy better be looking in the mirror while reviewing game film this on this.

We played well against a lousy team. The final score is reflective of that. More than anything, I believe this will give our team some much needed confidence. Any road win in the SEC is a good win.
@Gatormac2112 already said it best. Over the last several years, we would have LOST to a lousy team like this, especially on the road. Remember losing to LSU in 2020 with half their roster out?

It's progress.

Other than leaving 13 to 17 points on the field, I thought it was our best overall, consistent effort of the year.

What's funniest to me is with all the new players on the field today and hopefully the rest of the season, will likey make this team better than last year's team record recordwise.....ya know the one the "Holy Grailer's" like T and Jay proudly proclaim "took Bama down to the wire".....:rotfl: I think were going to find out the reserves and Billys recruits are already more talented as a whole.

I think Kamari Wilson was only in the game for two or three series. Early in the 3rd and midway through the 4th. And maybe after we went up by 17.

I really hope he sticks around. With the amount he's played he should have redshirted.

What’s the point of him redshirting? So he can get an extra year of eligibility? No way that guy is here five years. If he’s not good enough to get drafted after three or four, he’ll be buried on the depth chart and will transfer.

A&M went 3 for 3 on 3rd down on their 1st drive and 1 for 10 after that. I'd say that was improvement.

I only watched the 4th qtr and that was the best our defense has played in a few years. The OP is either brain dead or doesn't watch lol

It was a confidence building win that's for sure. This is also gooing to turn some heads in recruiting. How many of those superstar recruits that Dumbo bought are happy with their decsion now?

I gotcha, you're a 4th qtr wonder. Its OK. Go back and watch the game in between play station games and tell me how great the D was. We shut them out 2nd qtr because we hammered their qb and got lucky and better at the same time.

So the dypshyt who hired Dumbo at ATM and gave him guaranteed money tried to hire Dumbo at LSU this past offseason once he took over there. I don't know if the dypshyt is that dumb and still thinks Dumbo is a quality coach or if he knew that if he tried to hire Dumbo that the morons at ATM would give Dumbo more money? Either way the LSU dypshyt should feel like he is the luckiest guy around seeing the money he flushed at ATM and does not have to be there to watch it swirl down into the sewer.
