2nd and 3rd drives killed us and are not how you strategically win football games.
Combined with the 2nd, 3rd and 4th drive for Ole Miss.
We scored off the TO on the first drive, they went the length of the field in 10 plays for a TD, and we need to answer.
First we screw up KOR and end up on the 14.
Illegal Formation on an 11 yard run to start
Run for 2
Run for -2 because all 5 OL missed blocks
Bell drops the pass
Ole Miss goes 44 yards, in 6 plays and kicks a field goal.
So now we really need to answer, they've run 16 plays to our 3.
Throw for 4
Run for 2
Humphries drops the pass
Ole Miss goes 9 plays for a FG
At this point, Ole Miss has run 25 plays to our 6, and we haven't turned the ball over yet. We have 1 first down in the first quarter, because of 2 dropped passes and an illegal formation.


This whole scenario never came close to happening the last 3 years. Line up like you are paid to do and catch the ball like you are F'ing paid to do.

Hopefully the dose of humility helps them, because there is no excuse for those three things(illegal formation and 2 dropped passes) to happen in a 6 play span.
