1) When we have a big lead at half we still sleepwalk. Sick of it..Play 60 MINUTES FULL THROTTLE!!! 7 points in the 2nd half and that was a pick 6. This type on mental play will get us beat this year by someone if it does not change.

2)Teams know how to shut our running game down now and only Hanks can get open against man-coverage.

3) Julio is good for at least 1 crucial drop every game. He's a 5-Star Athlete, a 5-Star blocker, and a 3-Star Receiver.

4) Defense is still getting shredded in the passing game and only getting bailed out by timely turnovers.

5) Ingram's Heisman hopes are done. 40 yrds??....over

Negative much?

A 21 point lead can cause your game plan to change a little. Just sayin'.

You do play a good devils advocate, though.

edit: It looks like there were a lot more people here who could flame you before I could. I was hoping to be the first, but...

There are things that really need improvement, no doubt.

But you really should try to enjoy a big victory... just a little bit.

1. slippery slope keep the peddle mashed and run up the score, or play conserventally and keep something in the tank.
2. when you give the other team 4 + sec to throw they will complete passes
3.the turnovers are from preparation and hard play,
4. MI ended up with 6 + yards per carry and 2 tds, still alive
5. not going to put up huge numbers every game, when up huge even ray charles knows you are going to run

HAHA..We just beat down a Top 10 team after we let off the gas on offense in the 2nd half & you're nitpicking Bama..The only thing I can remotely complain about..Is GMac needs to learn to slide..I closed my eye's every-time he ran the ball..

Hey, we won. I'm Happy.
I'm not worried about most of your concerns, but I have to admit, the gators gained a lot of passing yardage and we need to improve our pass defense. The positive is that we still kept them out of the endzone, although some of it was their own mistakes.

Did you really think Mark Ingram was going to be a repeat Heisman? Have you not heard the QB at Michigan already won it?

Shut down the rushing game and we'll dump the ball on you all day long. I've yet to see Ingram or Richardson drop a pass, by the way. Oh, and as far as Julio goes - for every easy catch he drops, he usually catches one or two pretty big ones.
