LET'S TALK FOOTBALL!

[u/will0593]

SACK . I love SACK

[u/FSZou]

That state neutralized both our all-american rbs thank you

[u/NastyWideOuts]

Did someone say Juice? 😭

[u/MakingMiraclesHappen]

Dear Mizzu. If you're unhappy with Drink, we'd love to have him back in Boone. Sincerely, App State Fans all over the Southeast

[u/msflagship → u/MakingMiraclesHappen]

Oh they’re more than happy with drink. Much better than the era before him

[u/BigCrip]

The infamous 28-3 continues to haunt me

[u/FastLaneOnly]

As a Falcons fan, the current score haunts me

[u/Pnflkc3 → u/FastLaneOnly]

Except it’s against us this time and not Tom Brady and the Patriots

[u/DaZingMaster]

At some point, none of this is the players fault. When you have your 20th straight awful game against a ranked team on the road spanning 6 years, it can only be placed on the coaching.

[u/jimpix62]

The Pete Golding defense is complicated. This wasn't an issue in the previous era when the best teams stacked talent and had consistently year to year. Now it takes time because of the turnover. They were always talented but confused. Now they're settled. Throw the stats away.

[u/Wellthatsucks86]

I am just going to stop pondering the eccentricities of this team and conference. I feel like I’m living in a mad house rn

[u/DwyaneWade305]

Fine I will take the quality win.

[u/Supercargo428]

Nobody knows anything about the SEC, least of all myself. The thing I think I’m most certain about:

Maybe Ole Miss just had a bad day at Florida

[u/Kiing_Kyle]

State of Mississippi went 2-0 against us and shot our all American running bach damn

[u/BDrummer1606 → u/Kiing_Kyle]

Holy shit

[u/Supercargo428 → u/Kiing_Kyle]

Dead

[u/FSZou]

Seems like drink o'clock (the beverage not the man)

[u/elgenie]

Mizzou has not enjoyed their time in the questionably great state of Mississippi this season.

[u/FSZou → u/elgenie]

Or the offseason

[u/will0593]

Absolutely about fucking time

[u/gatekeepboogienights]

I really do expect Chambliss to have a jalen hurts type career. Get drafted by a well ran organization and have chances at winning a ring

[u/Supercargo428 → u/gatekeepboogienights]

Don’t wish that evil on us

[u/WallImpossible]

Good Game Ole Miss, I apparently misjudged this game and my $100 will miss me

[u/Mythrandir24 → u/WallImpossible]

Never bet on your own team, if anything do the opposite.

[u/Leather_smither → u/WallImpossible]

Never bet on your own team. It just hurts doubly if they lose.

[u/Bear_trap_something]

Belt to ass

[u/IssaThrowAway420x69 → u/Bear_trap_something]

Respectfully, though

[u/guardian20015]

FINALLY!!!! A SIGN OF LIFE!!!!

[u/Wellthatsucks86]

We finally got something going jfc

[u/Ok_Flow3504]

Fucking pathetic ass team

[u/magnumapplepi]

MAMA THERE GOES THAT MAN

[u/mizlal]

We are straight back to the not having fun portion of Missouri Football. The opposite was fun while it lasted

[u/chaser676]

Should be it. Take Lacy out

[u/NastyWideOuts]

GIVE HIM THE HEISMAN

[u/HopefulReb76]

TRINIDAD!!!

[u/DreadPosterRoberts]

ggs

[u/Muffinnnnnnn]

How is Mizzou not scoring at will on this Ole Miss defense?

[u/chaser676 → u/Muffinnnnnnn]

We improved a lot over the bye, showed against vandy. Nobody cared because it was Vandy.

[u/10thRebel → u/Muffinnnnnnn]

Cause our defense actually looks really good right now. Run defense this game alone is miles better than any game we’ve had all season.

[u/magnumapplepi → u/Muffinnnnnnn]

Florida game pissed them off

[u/Bear_trap_something → u/Muffinnnnnnn]

It's kind of our specialty

[u/rageb8err]

Reminds me of the 2015 TAMU game. Defense playing lights out, offense had brilliant flashes, then just stopped playing or would hurt all their scoring opportunities with dumb penalties or no effort.

[u/Wellthatsucks86 → u/rageb8err]

That was just a classic Hugh Freeze ole Miss team tho

[u/magnumapplepi]

Commits a holding penalty, catches a first down next play. THE PRESTIGE

[u/sum_young_guy → u/magnumapplepi]

You can't hold if you have to run post mesh on the next play.

[u/FastLaneOnly → u/magnumapplepi]

We got to be versatile

[u/txlandshark]

It feels like a Lane coached team With all the penalties

[u/NastyWideOuts]

Missouri’s secondary is making ours look good

[u/HopefulReb76]

Nice Odom

[u/Repulsive-Photo-798]

This is a stupid sport 🙃

[u/guardian20015]

This is the closest-feeling, most boneheaded three score game I’ve ever seen

[u/Wellthatsucks86 → u/guardian20015]

My flabbers are just completely ghasted at the game plan in the 2nd half

[u/chaser676 → u/guardian20015]

I can't even sit down

[u/IssaThrowAway420x69 → u/chaser676]

Why don’t you have a seat over there

[u/DaZingMaster]

Drink provides a nice floor because he eats up on SEC bottom feeders but he is truly a complete loser. At no point has it felt like he has coached to win this game. This game is must win and I feel like we've given up.

[u/Wellthatsucks86]

Pete needs to hire a good DC that runs his scheme and personnel and just head coach

[u/penisthightrap_]

I thought we had a good chance today because of our defense.

I was right. But I didn’t realize our offense was going to stay in Missouri

[u/magnumapplepi]

Either JDB’s plays are prime Peyton Manning long or we just like to fuck around for no reason. Either way it needs to stop

[u/BigCrip]

Need another OC and an actual DC Peter

[u/will0593 → u/BigCrip]

JDB didnt make Trinidad miss 10 balls

[u/will0593 → u/BigCrip]

Surprisingly his name isn't Peter, it's fucking Stephen lol

[u/Bear_trap_something]

Being a Mizzou fan is equivalent to dating someone with borderline personality disorder.

[u/magnumapplepi → u/Bear_trap_something]

Being an Ole Miss fan is like being married to one. WHICH I DID.

[u/Ok_Flow3504 → u/Bear_trap_something]

It's giving me a fucking bpd

[u/ChampionshipHuman732]

Just not Austin Simmons’ day

[u/Venn720]

Nuke the whole coaching staff

[u/Mythrandir24 → u/Venn720]

Which one?

[u/thatboiOsaka]

This makes a lot of sense to me. I was telling my buddy ole Miss matches up really well against Missouri. It’s the SEC

[u/magnumapplepi]

Can we get an outside run or something for the love of god

[u/ScooterNana → u/magnumapplepi]

you’ll get only insides runs and you’ll like it

[u/Mythrandir24]

What the fuck does the "head coach of the offense" even do? These guys are never fucking ready.

[u/BigCrip]

WHAT THE FUCK ARE WE DOING

[u/olemiss36]

I don't know if there is a team in all of college football that is worse at play clock management than us

[u/R1ckMartel]

I don't think any offensive coach worth a fuck wants to deal with Drinkwitz.

[u/chaser676]

How on earth is this an issue every single game

[u/magnumapplepi]

Jesus Mary and Joesph

[u/Lost_Packet]

Can i have a shot or pill of whatever Lacy had at halftime... asking for a friend.

[u/ChampionshipHuman732]

Legitimate conversations about Eli Drinkwitz need to be had

[u/Rep_Dong]

Put it away here Rebs

[u/chaser676]

Penalty discrepancy this game has been surprising

[u/Wellthatsucks86 → u/chaser676]

We’ve been pretty disciplined

[u/AboveGroundFool]

God dammit...Alabama, you're supposed to be kicking the shit outta Tennessee to make me forget about how poor we're doing

[u/ChampionshipHuman732]

I could accept a Mizzou loss but this is fucking clownish

[u/Icy_Suspect_3735 → u/ChampionshipHuman732]

Bro it's embarrassing. Even the coach is hanging his head and kicking the ground.

[u/DreadPosterRoberts]

it's all good mizzou friends. schedule only gets easier from here.

[u/AboveGroundFool → u/DreadPosterRoberts]

I mean, we do have Arkansas coming outta the bye. Then Texas. So that's a couple easy ones...

Please don't save this comment.

[u/OrangMan14]

Mizzou's ranking never really made sense to me so this game is only validating how I've felt about this team all year.

[u/magnumapplepi]

Ok never mind

[u/will0593]

Get the run game going. Calm your nipples Trinidad

[u/Mythrandir24]

Maybe ESPN was right all along relegating this to SEC Network. What an ugly game.

[u/WallImpossible → u/Mythrandir24]

I hate to agree but yeah

[u/durtydiq_v2]

This is coaching malpractice...I want compensation

[u/will0593 → u/durtydiq_v2]

CALL J G WENTWORTH 877 WHAT-THE-FUCK NOW

[u/quazilox]

Whoever is calling plays for Mizzou needs to be taken to the woodshed and fucking decapitated

[u/WallImpossible → u/quazilox]

The worst part is it's still SO much better than last year when our OC had a hate boner for QB's with unbroken legs. Guy was weird.

[u/RadTurnbucklePad → u/quazilox]

We even got Kirby Moore out of the booth, but still can’t land on a competent play caller 🤦‍♂️

[u/penisthightrap_]

How many times can we ask the defense to get a stop?

[u/AboveGroundFool → u/penisthightrap_]

At least one more...

[u/HopefulReb76]

Damn UT scored again

[u/will0593 → u/HopefulReb76]

What's the score

[u/HopefulReb76 → u/will0593]

UT 19 Bama 10

[u/magnumapplepi]

Everyone get ready for a small run and 2 drops!

[u/Wellthatsucks86 → u/magnumapplepi]

Can’t wait!

[u/bigdog782]

Yeah let’s run our first quick pass (5 yard out) on 3rd and 11 coming out of a timeout. Big brain move.

[u/gatekeepboogienights]

Yeah thats the play that makes me turn the game off. What a joke

[u/AboveGroundFool]

Out of a timeout we run a 5 yard out when we need 11? Fire the entire offensive staff...Jesus

[u/guardian20015]

We called a timeout, came out of a timeout, Missouri completed a pass, …. but we didn’t give up the 1st down?

It’s a fucking October miracle

[u/txlandshark]

Good news is OM will see the same QB play next week

[u/jasonic89]

Throw it 3 yards when we need 11

Love this strategy

[u/Ok_Flow3504]

An outside route 8 yards away from the first down. What the fuck am I watching

[u/Many_Dimension_7615]

?

[u/gatekeepboogienights]

Yeah thats the play that makes me turn the game off. What a joke

[u/magnumapplepi]

What

[u/Pnflkc3]

Rinse, repeat

1st down: Roberts stuffed by vaunted Ole Miss run defense

2nd down; rando pass to nowhere

3rd down: incomplete bomb
Edit; completion 6 yds short of the marker

4th down: punt

[u/will0593]

STOP WASTING TIMEOUTS GOD FUCK

[u/guardian20015]

Why did we call a timeout here

[u/10thRebel → u/guardian20015]

Bust. Receiver for Missouri was mismatched

[u/Wellthatsucks86 → u/guardian20015]

I’m about to crash out man

[u/DreadPosterRoberts]

running the ball in this situation, woof

[u/Rep_Dong]

Camera man is a horn dog, just rocket central

[u/Seth_The_White]

why exactly is Simmons chucking the ball into the dirt so much

[u/AboveGroundFool → u/Seth_The_White]

Mel Kiper probably knows

[u/MakingMiraclesHappen]

Feel like I just had the 4th martini. First 2 are great, 3rd is probably a bad idea, and the 4th makes me feel like garbage

[u/will0593]

Sit Lacy and get the run game going with Frazier and Lindsey

[u/Bear_trap_something]

Roberts can't run where there ain't no holes

[u/Ok_Flow3504 → u/Bear_trap_something]

He's getting the ball 5 yard behind the line with two defenders on him. God forbid you run a screen to get some easy yards

[u/Wellthatsucks86]

Just for once in my life, can we play a full complete game without all of this nonsense

[u/Mythrandir24 → u/Wellthatsucks86]

UGA, 2024

[u/MasterOfDankMemesV2]

Jamal sucks today too.

[u/BigCrip]

This game is damn near a barn burner I’m falling asleep over here

[u/BDrummer1606]

WR’s can’t catch, Chambliss looks off, what is going on

[u/ScooterNana → u/BDrummer1606]

defense holding it down

[u/magnumapplepi]

JDB needs to justify his existence

[u/HopefulReb76 → u/magnumapplepi]

I mean there were multiple potential touchdowns Deuce and Trinidad are just off today

[u/BDrummer1606 → u/magnumapplepi]

I don’t think this game is on JDB

[u/monsterskeeter]

Both of these teams are pissing me off, ✌️

[u/WallImpossible → u/monsterskeeter]

💯

[u/guardian20015]

Nearly every third quarter we’ve played, for quite some time now, has left me feeling fucking disgusted with myself

[u/DaZingMaster]

I’m not sure if the defense and Ole Miss offense play like this if it’s still close, but I am officially moving 100% of the blame to the offense. You just can’t show up like this in a big game.

[u/WallImpossible → u/DaZingMaster]

I guess it's nice to not do this against A&M but man I was hoping we'd just stop doing this all together

[u/shinymuskrat]

What the literal fuck do special teams coach these fucking guys.

Field. The fucking. Punt.

[u/BigCrip]

This offense is not good today

[u/Mythrandir24]

Rebs defense outperforming the offense, a chilling development to be sure.

[u/Pnflkc3]

3:53 left in the 3rd: first QB pressure on Trinidad

[u/Ok_Flow3504 → u/Pnflkc3]

Result: Fumble

[u/Trubisko_Daltorooni]

Nice to at least see the defense playing with pride and manning up.

[u/MasterOfDankMemesV2]

That's great and all but we all know damn well Austin's not doing jack shit here.

[u/Bear_trap_something]

I hate football and I hate watching it. MIZ!

[u/guardian20015]

Bro, actually? Where IS Deuce Alexander? What the fuck are we doing today?

[u/will0593]

Trinidad looks butthurt every time he misses a pass

[u/magnumapplepi]

That was bullshit

[u/magnumapplepi]

I’m about to crash out

[u/penisthightrap_]

Defense had done more than enough.

Offense is a fucking no show

[u/bright_yellow_vest]

Lacy doesn’t seem fully in the game

[u/guardian20015 → u/bright_yellow_vest]

Injury struggles continue

[u/bright_yellow_vest → u/guardian20015]

Missed picking up the block and then didn’t make any real attempt to catch the ball

[u/monsterskeeter]

Idk what this dude talking about, Frazier was gashing them

[u/bigdog782]

For the first time this year I’m really questioning the offensive play calling.

Why not throw more screens and quick passes? Why are we running at all down 3 scores and averaging 2 yards per carry? Why do we keep punting on 4th downs in Ole Miss territory?

Also so many stupid penalties on the offensive line again today.

Just when it feels like Mizzou has something going we inevitably put up a stinker.

[u/jasonic89 → u/bigdog782]

You don’t like the combo of running for 1 yard then launching a 40 yard bomb incomplete? Repeat

[u/AboveGroundFool → u/bigdog782]

Bruh, it took you to game 7 to question this dogshit play calling?

[u/bigdog782 → u/AboveGroundFool]

Relative to last year it’s been a vast improvement

[u/AboveGroundFool → u/bigdog782]

It's been trash both years. It's just been different trash. Lindsey has been better this year at adapting (minus today). Moore was better game planning. He could script a beautiful drive, but once the D adjusted was lost. But Lindsey also makes so many boneheaded decisions at what to run when in certain scenarios that I'm convinced the opposing teams are paying him.

[u/HopefulReb76]

Lacy spamming the hurdle today

[u/R1ckMartel]

This is why everyone calls them frauds and gatekeepers every year.

Drinkwitz has never beaten a team on the road with a pulse, and I don't see any signs he ever will.

[u/magnumapplepi]

Don’t do that Lacy

[u/ScooterNana]

BROTHER, if I see another run up the middle

[u/Wellthatsucks86]

Offense gotta get clicking this drive

[u/guardian20015]

They’re playing Vengabus

[u/magnumapplepi]

If Trinidad doesn’t score him I’m not finishing the shrine to him I made

[u/shinymuskrat]

Being consistently outcoached by any marginally competent team sure is fun

[u/Away-Concentrate-946 → u/shinymuskrat]

Just make sure Dennis Ellison knows you have a hoover deluxe and you win a natty.

[u/jasonic89]

So guys. I love Mizzou but I gotta admit

Someone had insider info…

This is exactly why we got sec network 😐

[u/stinkyholetime]

Not a great game for Simmons to drop a dud

[u/_MusicNBeer_]

Just when you think Mizzou may be legit, they lay a giant turd.

[u/ferndaddyak → u/_MusicNBeer_]

This guy Mizzous

[u/gatekeepboogienights]

If Simmons declares for the draft this year he's gonna come into the nfl so unprepared. He should honestly transfer to Miami next year.

[u/AboveGroundFool → u/gatekeepboogienights]

You had me in the first half...

[u/gatekeepboogienights → u/AboveGroundFool]

As a mizzou fan I want him back but he's not gonna get ready in a chip Lindsay offense

[u/AboveGroundFool → u/gatekeepboogienights]

I want him back and Lindsey fired into the Sun

[u/guardian20015]

The Atomic wings I ate during halftime are about to have the last laugh

[u/Trubisko_Daltorooni]

I don't want to read too much into sideline shots. But...if Simmons and Green are miscommunicating on the field, should they be communicating off of it?

[u/Wellthatsucks86]

Trinidad has overthrown like five wide open touchdowns.

[u/MasterOfDankMemesV2]

Pitiful effort from "Top 15 Pick" Austin Simmons. He should be fuckin ashamed.

[u/BigCrip]

If Trinidad was hitting the throws to Deuce this game would be a blowout

[u/DaZingMaster]

Mizzou is legit serving up a 3 course stinker. Special teams, offense and defense have all put up F performances.

[u/jasonic89]

First down: 30 yard pass incomplete

Second: run for 2 yards

Third. Throw 40 yards incomplete

[u/ChampionshipHuman732]

Austin Simmons looks fuckin terrible

[u/FSZou]

Maybe Kansas didnt orchestrate the shooting of Ahmad Hardy. Maybe the shooter was hired by a wealthy baron of some kind (idk what Mississippi makes) and they did some voodoo shit with blood collected on the scene. It makes so much sense when you dont think about it

[u/Bowserbuster123 → u/FSZou]

Baron of cotton? Catfish? Soybeans maybe?

[u/magnumapplepi → u/FSZou]

Soy beans and obesity
