Good: covered the spread, actually contained knight and the leading rushing SEC team to their lowest yards, another NOT to continue a crazy record

Bad: anything injury related with Eddie Jackson. Like I said in another thread, I believe based on no facts whatsoever that he'll be fine by lsu time.

Ugly: getting stopped in the red zone twice, interception, RUN THE DANG BALL KIFFIN

Good: "W" -- just win baby. Another NOT to keep it going.

Bad: Looked tired after the first quarter and then caught our second win near the 4th quarter.

Ugly: Still an unreliable FG kicker. Eddie getting injured. #6 from aTm. Dude was way too jacked and looked to be trying to hurt players. Very much deserved his ejection.

Really? I didn't think they looked winded, just busted/confused coverage. Every scramble by knight resulted from someone NOT starting to cover him.

But I'll rewatch tomorrow. You may be right.

Good: running game, yet another NOT, and as always Allie LaForce
Bad: Passing game was off, they scored 14 points
Ugly: Eddie Jackson's injury. hate it for the guy. Gary and Vern's constant mentioning of the kick6. could we please have a field goal attempt without it?

When the other team's butt is dragging, and you are getting 7 yards a carry, run the dang ball! Incomplete passes and sacks on first down kept putting us in a hole. Just like last week, when we ran the ball, we dominated.

We only have two 3-year players, that were 4/5 stars out of high school, and have some game experience behind Eddie Jackson.


The injury stings but it isn't necessarily crippling unless these guys come up short of the standard.

Just a concern ---A balanced O has been one of our trademarks under Saban and IMO one of our real strengths. We need to be running and passing for a minimum of 200 yds each and Jalen seems to really be struggling with accuracy when throwing downfield. We have world class receivers. What do y'all think the solution to this is?

Good: We just came out of a tough 3 game stretch and are still in control of our "destiny".
Defensive/Offensive lines played really well
Running backs are awesome
Hurts (for the most part) still amazes with his composure and play as a true freshman.
Much needed buy week coming up
Bad: Officiating as usual
Getting away from running the ball when we're gashing them and really ready to make them quit
Red Zone play calling at times
Ugly: Eddie's injury - He will still contribute as a team leader and be a big help in mentoring the guy who moves into his spot.

P.S. EJ is a class individual on and off the field and he will come back from this injury. Obviously not for us but he will play for someone in the NFL

Practice. Hurts just needs practice. The bye week should help. Eventually he'all have a 300/100 yard game (probably not this year though).

Everything you guys said above, and
Good: Mack Wilson's coverage hits; O-line run blocking; Ryan Anderson; overall a game played with good sportsmanship from both sides
Bad: EJ injury, everything else pales in comparison
Ugly: Last minutes of the first half; things I say and feel during our field goal attempts; Sumlin's late timeouts.

Tip of the cap to Miles Garrett

His accuracy will improve. It may not be this season but we can still win a NC in spite of. I'm loving his growth, that scramble for a TD was a thing of beauty ... usually when he scrambles he looks to get as many yards as possible and protect the ball. This run you could tell he was look to score.
