True or False. This years team is undefeated if we had a healthy Tee Higgins

for this season. I re-watched Trevor's first pass completed to Tee Higgins against Texas AM. There is no way that ball is complete to any of this years teams receivers. Tee is/was a great wide receiver. I think having him would have completed this years team.

Our woes that led us to 4-4 were with the o-line.

O line issues can be hidden if you have a receiver that can take the top off of a defense.

Probably not, but an above average offense and I think we'd be undefeated.

I don’t know if any one WR would’ve helped with all the disastrous turnovers we had…..you know, the ones that directly led to a score for the other team. At one point, I believe we had given up like 70 something points as a result of turnovers. Not sure even TH could have overcome that…????? Go Tigers…🏈🏈🏈🏈

True (hesitantly). The Tigers have no one that can "high point" a pass and turn
Nov 27, 2023, 10:11 AM
|

50/50 balls into 90/10 like Higgins, Mike Williams, etc...
Cade is no TL or DW - but he also has no one who can bail him out if he just throws a pass in their general direction.
With an elite receiver - we win all of our our games (maybe not Duke - that one got off the rails for many reasons...)

Yes. We still need to fix the blocking though.

add a pre-injured Ross to the mix and it's probably true.

Why are you asking about a healthy Higgins? He’s been gone for a few years now? Who knows Cole Turner or Antonio Williams would’ve definitely helped this team. The Miami and NC State games are the ones we definitely should’ve won

I just happened to rewatch T Lawrence first pass at Texas AM to Higgins
Nov 27, 2023, 11:40 AM
|
|
Then I saw a few more incredibly catches by Higgins. Only an elite WR could have made that catch. We have nobody on this team capable of that catch. Tee made many incredibly catches. Our QB has nobody like that to help him.
Despite the turnovers, we were in every ball game. Who knows what happens if we have one WR with that capability. We need a big time WR next year.

and Improved o-line play in addition to Tee Higgins. Then we can have that conversation.

Not sure that our previous OL were any better than this year
Nov 27, 2023, 11:43 AM

but our past WR corp was certainly better. Even if our current WR's were healthy, they don't appear to have NFL talent or at least haven't shown it yet.

Is Cole Turner really the fastest guy on the team, which is what I heard back in the summer?

False. We could 5 Tee Higgins and it wouldnt have changed anything.

We’ve had open receivers on nearly every pass play. It’s not that Cade doesn’t have open guys, it’s that he’s panicking and not buying time or surveying the field. The QB needs more development and until then it doesn’t matter who we have at WR.
A better way to ask this is - if we had Trevor Lawrence would we be undefeated? Not 100% sure with the crazy RB turnovers, but one thing is for sure we’d be connecting on many more passes and further downfield.

I don't like playing the "woulda, coulda, shoulda" game, it is too Cootish.
Butt, I will say, Tee Higgins, and even moreso, Mike Williams had that greatest of qualities in a receiver. That is, "When the ball is in the air, it is MINE, and you ain't gettin' your hands on it!"

Would we still constantly fumble inside the five yard line?
