Is it just going to be good against the run and still get torched by Big 12 style high-powered offenses?

Pray Burns heals quickly. Him going down was what allowed Auburn to sustain drives in the second half.

It's going to be bend but don't break, just like we see every year. Auburn is about the 5th best offense we will see.

Looked better than last year.  Burns will be tough to lose but a groin shouldn't be more than 2 weeks

How do we keep getting beat deep when our corners play 15 yards off the ball?  Doubt OU/Baylor give us this many dropped passes and overthrown deep balls.

We will have better help over the top from the safeties against those teams because we respect their quarterbacks' ability to throw the ball. We won't be as good against the run as we were last night.

Do you even watch games? Corners play a lot of press coverage now.

Corners lining up close to the line and backing off before the snap isn't defined as press coverage in my book.
