The Good- The offense clicked on most things. We got see a lot of players in all phases of the game. Was that the TUBA player playing defensive line at the end of the game?

The Bad- Coker had several missed throws. The fumble in the red zone. There really isn't much to say here.

The Ugly- FAU has a little talent on offense but I have seen better defense played by 9 year olds.

The Good - We are starting to settle down and come together as a team. The Bad - The weather halting the game. The Ugly - The bickering among fans about who our QB should be.
 
The Good: 620 total yards, Coop, both QBs playing. Defense only allowing only 145, EVANS coming off the edge, OL, EJ and CJ

The Bad: weather cutting the game short, redzone missteps,

The Ugly: like CullmanTide said the bickering.

GOOD
We won
No major injuries
Decision to end the game, no reason to continue and risking someone getting hurt

BAD
Still a QB debate amongst the fan base that will likely never end

UGLY
The fact we play these games to begin with and still charge full price

The good: Amari Cooper x 13 catches and runs after catch. Blake Sims ease with running the offense in the first few series, Coker stepping up in the 2nd half, kicking, Lane Kiffin. We weren't in a position where we needed to wear out our RB's. We got Drake involved and he looked great! Pressure on the QB. The bad ain't so bad and the ugly ain't so ugly :) ... but ....

The bad: Lightning cancelling the rest of the game, not wrapping up on tackles. If we're going to get spread out in future games, we need to get a little better at this.

The ugly: The bad exchange between Sims and Yeldon -- and -- Coker at the very end of the first half.

Still, I thought everyone played very well. This team is exciting to watch :)

My biggest concern is the middle of our defense looked soft on occasion and neither of our first two opponents have the kind of Oline that should be able to do that.

The good - JC got meaningful snaps and reps, will get more this week too
The bad - same as always, fumble here, dumb sack taken there, wide open receivers missed or overlooked entirely
The ugly - FAU without two of their best players

People ain't giving JC any credit - guy has been in crimson jersey, what, 6 weeks? Asking a lot for him to have his timing down splitting reps in practice over 6 weeks. And people aren't giving BS any credit - as long as he does what is asked of him and produces, it's true, JC may not get to play much unless BS gets hurt. Frankly, I could care less - as long as Bama wins. And I have seen nothing that tells me the Bama offense can't move the football (and score) on anybody; I have seen enough to tell me that the defense (barring major injuries/suspensions) will be better than many people think.

The Good: Offense. Amari Cooper. Eddie Jackson. Both QB's.

The Bad: Sims handoff/mixup at the goal line and Coker's short throws and mismanagement at the end of the 1st half. Front 7 and LB play.

The Ugly: The weather.

The good: we beat a cupcake 41-0.
The bad: too many stupid penalties.
The ugly: still concerned about elements of our defense that were not apparent yesterday because of the calibre of the opponent

Good: Coop; Eddie bringing physicality back to the CB position; RB's; Blake's jukes; Beating FAU the way we should

Bad: Not being able to get the play calls in without a LOT of help from the sidelines; Missed tackles (not wrapping up); A lot of Coker's plays

Ugly: Middle of our D still looking soft against the run... against FAU. Really need to shore that up before Florida, Arkansas, LSU, et al

The good: Eddie Jackson being back only 5 months after ACL surgery. Welcome back! Huge improvement in the secondary.

The bad: fumble between Coker and Yeldon -- it didn't look like Yeldon was expecting the ball.

The ugly: Coker having difficulty getting the plays in from the sideline. There must be a better way. I think he is the more talented QB but his lack of familiarity with the playbook is glaring and totally slows him down in execution.

Good- We have a lot of talent all over the field.
Bad- Lightning took away minutes we could have used to develop some guys.
Ugly- Cokers throws that were ten feet too high and the Sims and Yeldon fumble. FAU.
