We had mistakes like losing contain, taking our eyes off our man on passing when we are in man-to-man coverage, things like that.”
On the way the game changed in the second quarter
“Their momentum really helped them a lot. It kind of had us tired. The tempo, they had a really good tempo. Every time they got a first down, they were running to the ball. That was a really big factor.”
On bouncing back
“We just have to go back to work Monday. There is nothing we can do about it now. That is the only thing we can do is just go back to work. That is how everyone is looking at it.”
On what changed after the three-and-out drive
“They spread us out a lot. Their tempo really hurt us. We got the three-and-out and when they came back and got the first down, they started their tempo. It was hard to sub how we wanted to.”

He pretty much nails it, just hope they do something about it and come back and play well next game.

In other words, our defense simply cannot handle a mid-tier SEC offense once they get into a groove.
We have no ability to disrupt team's backfield, our corners and safeties can't cover long enough to change the play, we can't handle a strong running game, and we are still making high-school mistakes while playing in the NFL's triple-A league.
It seems that when our offense clicks, our defense sucks. When the defense rises up and plays above their heads, the offense sputters. Consistency is the key, and consistency means mastering the fundamentals of football. All the praise for the "high performance" guru and big-star recruits is good, but you have to be technically sound and understand how to play your position each and every down.
