The Good- JK Scott was kicking better, Henry and Drake were the backbone of the offense. The DL looked good. Loved the blocked punt

The Bad- I won't name an individual player but one of the WR's had a bad game (quit on routes, gave up on screens, and barely blocked). in general the WR's and QB's didn't seem to be on the same page. The LB's also seemed to play flat footed by waiting on backs to come to them. I hope we change that next week (Ole Miss is much faster).

The Ugly- Field Goals

IMO , the worst part of the game was watching both QB's failing to anticipate WR's breaking open . Guys were open all day .

The Good: its over
The Bad: we either play down to or play around with inferior opponents
The Ugly: special teams

I really think Mullany, Henry, and Drake played well.

the two interceptions were passes that never should have been thrown
True , but I was referencing 6 or 8 potential completions which could and/or should have been thrown :(

Good, we won. Henry. Blocked punt.

Bad, still didn't play that well (as Nick Saban said himself) WR and QB off page all day.

Ugly, Arkansas. Filed goals (we might see a new kicker next week) if we play like that againt Ole Miss we will louse.

Good:
Henry, 6 TDs in two games, he's a beast. The blocked punt. Kenyan Drake all over the place making plays. The defense once it settled down.

Bad:
Shaky place kicking and quarterback play.

Ugly:
Auburn and Arkansas. With the way those teams played I can't see putting anything Alabama did here. I think Jeremy Johnson is trying to match Henry's TDs with interceptions.

good Henry(wish they would have let him have a couple more carry's so he could have got his 100) Drake also looked good

Bad place kicking if it doesn't improve it will cost us a game

ugly Qb play neither one looked very good maybe we ought to give Morris a chance couldn't be any worse

Good: the running game.
Bad: the QB play.
Ugly: Don't want to say it but we all see it.....Adam Griffith.

And a bonus:

The Joey Galloway (ie the stupid): Bama made his top 6 this week. Coming in at 6. Blah. last time this year I will mention Galloway.

I hate these weak sister games. We typically play like crap, and yesterday was no exception. The OL was sub-par, particularly at one spot, QB play was sub-par, and special teams is not special. If we ever get an 85% kicker, we might never lose.

The Good- 2nd game where the other team's defense wore down....

The Bad - whining fans

The Ugly - Otis Nixon

In all seriousness, we played well in spurts on offense.

We played well on defense, especially in second half.

And yet, we still put up 500+ yards, 37 pts that should have been closer to 50. And finally played well against a spread team with veteran leadership and high caliber specialists.

We have had many worse game twos over the past 20 years

Who is he anyway? The name rings a bell. I guess Sports Illustrated wont put Auburn at 2 next year....

Good: RBs. Good play from all of them. They would have really run wild if the OL could consistently get it right.
Bad: 3 and outs. We just couldn't get anything going on 3rd down.
Ugly: Not enough improvement from week 1 to week 2, especially from the O line. There were good individual performances, but they still haven't gelled, and Dominick Jackson reminded me WAY too much of Chris Capps. Between him and the inconsistent QB play, Nkemdiche is going to be a serious pain in the butt come Saturday.
