Halftime adjustments will have to be made to win this game.

Well, Alabama could try that. History says they might not.

That might be the worst 2:00 I’ve seen since the Shula era. Thankfully halftime broke their momentum. Halftime adjustments will have to be made to win this game.

Half time adjustments, We talking adjustments! U kidding right

2 dumb mistakes by Milroe cost 5 pts

Even if that last throw was complete. There was nowhere for the WR to go

 

[Bazza]

This is all @seebell 's fault!

 

[Cruiser]

I expect we will go back to running the ball; and I expect they will be expecting that

 

[B1GTide]

The harsh reality - you never know how a team will react to a really bad loss. This team allowed that loss to totally kill their confidence. If the coaches can't restore that at halftime then the seaon will end today.

You risk too much in 10 seconds. The momentum has clearly swung SCar way. Take your lumps and go to the half. Goodness

There are simply too many ways to beat a wide open pass rush- we are supposedly an offensive juggernaut- ah... screens, draws.... etc. I don't normally complain and maybe I should be in complaints thread but this should be too easy to beat! While defense has some issues, this half is completely on the offensive play- calling! End rant, Roll Tide and let's kick there rear-ends in the 2nd half! Roll Tide!!!!!

How does it look from there? Any insight watching all 22?

The most glaring thing is that we aren't better on the lines of scrimmage.

The second-most glaring thing is mental mistakes & lack of discipline.

But I'm guessing those things are coming through the TV just fine...

1st Half thougths:

Defense looks better than they did last week. 2 busted plays. One they capitalized on. One they didn't. Depending on how long Jackson is out, if we're gonna go with Mincey, Brown, and Mbakwe, we're gonna have to live with some of those. But the front guys are gonna have to get home more often.

Opening script on offense was phenomenal. After that, notsomuch. I feel like we're putting too much on Milroe, and he's still not there yet with seeing everything. Pocket awareness is less than 0. He literally gave them 5 points. His Heisman chances are non-existent at this point. Time to start getting the ball out of his hands fast and into the hands of all those playmakers.

Milroe cost us 5 points.

Still a safety if he doesn't throw. No protection on these blitzes.

Too many expectations...for all of us I guess.

 

[CrimsonJazz]

This is one rattled football team after getting punched in the mouth. The coaches have their work cut out for them.

Not so - initial contact was made at the one.
