Offense -- overall pleased. Running game outstanding. Hurts didn't improve in the passing game as much as I would have liked over last week.

Defense -- best performance against a quality team since the BCSNCG against LSU. Suffocating at all three levels.

Special Teams -- spotty to less than satisfactory. Scott boomed several, but wasn't consistent. Griffith was fair on PK -- XPs good, though almost missed one. KOs boom or bust. Missed only FG attempt. Punt and kick coverage not to winning standard.

Biggest issue coming up is Saban trying to keep the team from believing the ensuing hype. Expect Bad Nick this week.

Especially the youngsters who haven't been here before. I don't think there'll be a problem with Jalen, though...

Good Lord, look at how much larger Bo is than those people in the stands!!!! The proportions are so different it looks photoshopped.

I was telling my son that Bo may run some steps or something for that and it's definitely not something you want your players doing. But it *is* Tennessee. I can overlook it this once at least til next October.

Re: Will Coach Saban be overall pleased?

I don't think he was too happy about the passing, and the special teams coverage. We must improve, but to win like that and still need improving tells you how good we really are. This could be Coach's best team if we continue to score on D and Jalen keeps improving. Yes his throwing was off downfield, but the guy is the man flat out.
