I think this game was good for the team for several reasons; 1) we beat an opponent that I think had gotten into the players' and coaches' heads, 2) a lot of young players got some good experience on the road in pressure situations, 3) like Coach Saban always talks about, the team had to really overcome some adversity to get the win. It obviously wasn't the prettiest of wins, but similar to the last two Ole Miss games, I think it will go a long way into cultivating the character of this team, only without it being at the expense of a loss.
I think getting Tony Brown back after the Kent St. game will be big for the secondary. As for the receivers, I thought Deiter would be as sure-handed as Mullaney was, but he really makes me nervous.
