Game Thread: OFFICIAL POSTGAME THREAD - Bama vs. MSU...

Studs of the game-

D- the whole dang starting unit
O- Josh Jacobs- if we left him in on that last drive we score.
ST- Bulvoas and Bernier- kicking game was solid today

We needed a game like this. A game where we had to slug it out on offense and lean on the defense.

Main thing I think is to get Tua to look for the check down in some of those pressure situations. Some of that punishment he took tonight was from hanging on to the ball looking for the deep throw.
 
I guess the "experts" were right. MSU's defense is legit. Was very impressed with them, especially the second half adjustments. That second quarter TD after the fumble was huge to give us the 21 point lead.

MSU is a "veteran" team...it showed especially on defense. If their offense could have generated some points, we would have a much tighter game.
 
Tua couldn’t go back in. Got hit in the front of the knee not the back where his problem was.

Deonte Brown- Turf toe. Going to be an issue moving forward.

Thankful for the win ! I was nervous about injuries the entire time. I hope the ones who were injured can be healed for Auburn. Tua needs to rest next week or play just the 1st quarter. Glad for the shutout!
 
MSU has a great defense. Their offense had improved too in recent games but our D was just too much for them. 2 shutouts in a row! I love it! And ran it down their throats for the last 6 minutes. Bama football!

If Bama does end up playing Clemson, Clemson's D will be even better than State's. Our o line needs to stay healthy.
 
What a meltdown over here...

Saban said Tua could've went back in but is okay. Said that there needs to be rules about hitting low...
Brown has a turf toe... Might not play next weekend.

I expect Tua to play 1 quarter and half before Jalen plays rest of the game to get back where he is. We are fine everyone. MSU defense is real good.. When I say real good, way better than LSU defense.

Tua has got to be coached to get rid of it. Here's a lesson Jalen could teach him. A throw out of bounds can be your friend, sometimes.

It not not his knee, but the quad above it.
 
More from CNS Presser-

-On low hits- he’s not going to complain. Football is football. Our protection has got to be better.
- Josh Jacobs ran like a demon.
- Shut outs have come from improvements and practicing better.
- Pleased there were no penalties.
- Their pressure stopped the run game & we got behind the sticks. Two things happen with pressure- 1) Big plays 2) Big losses. We didn’t handle it well especially in the run game.
- Has confidence in Cotton but has been pleased with Brown. Can’t speak to Cotton’s play until he watches the film.

On Bama's penultimate drive, I was yelling, "Run the dang ball, Mike!" Heck taking a knee three times would have been better than calling plays that rely on Mack's limited passing ability. Geez, at least keep the clock rolling.

As was discussed in another thread, on another day, maybe Mac would have been better prepared if, in earlier appearances, he was allowed to run the full offense, with passes etc. I think it would have helped today.
 
Except for the annual cupcake game next week, I think the days of rolling up 50 pts and 500 yards of O are over for this season. I think this game demonstrated what we are in for the rest of the way.

Not according to Saban’s presser. Said he took a shot. to the front of the knee. Didn’t get hit in the back of the knee where his problem has been.

Not really - they're pretty much equally ranked but MSU has played a tougher schedule. MSU will likely be the best overall D Bama faces this year, including post-season. Michigan looks to be as good, if not better, than MSU, but that's it.
