Defense worn down. Plus Auburn adjusted.

Right now McMillan is 2 for 11 for 20 yards. And, it’s not Auburn, it’s McMillan, we are getting people open.

If this is Coach Hall's big first test, thus far he's failing. We look nothing like we did last week, our play calling is very vanilla.

Especially his first down play-calling. Too many runs setting up 2nd and 3rd and long.

They are at #10. They have NFL guys on the DLine. This isn't the AAC and it sure as hell ain't listless FIU.

McMillan is forcing a lot of passes. Also those six penalties have killed momentum.

The first series after the half will determine our chances.

+1, I thought Hall would really open up the offense tonight and we might even see some new looks, instead tonight looks like Doug Ruse is back in the booth, but McMillan needs to calm down and step up his play for us to have a chance.

It's not Hall it's McMillan. As I've said from the beginning he can't handle pressure. He starts feeling it even when it's not there and he loses his mechanics. He was missing wide open receivers. If he was doing his job everyone would be praising Hall as if was a god.

On defense they are playing their hearts out and they are not worn down. We have depth at every position and we are constantly rotating guys in. We lead in TOP. The penalties have been ridiculous. Curtis for the most part has been great as our DC but we continue to leave players uncovered . That's unacceptable.

We have a chance here on this first drive. McMillan needs to step up or be pulled.

Great play call on that 3rd and 10. SMH.

McMillan is really choking it tonight. We needed a big game from him, we are not getting it.

As good as he looked last week, he looks like a deer in the headlights this week.

Yep, a deer in the headlights. His bonehead interception really changed the complexion of the game. Defense running out of juice.

Stupid play by Clark.

As to McMillan they need to take him out for at least one series. See what Howard can do. It's frustrating to see him stink it up and keep going in.

McMillan has played horribly. Just look at a long 4th down and he throws it out of bounds. The OL has actually been decent in the passing game. Justin is G5.

Officiating has been bad but you have to make plays to win at Auburn, 2 dropped TDs and an absurd INT.

Catching the ball is a joke as well, both WR and RBs.
Have had every chance to compete in this game. The team just has no clue how to win. Good news, we can play with a top SEC school.
Bad news, we have a long way to know how to win tough games.
