Biggest upgrade versus last year

[WestGA'Cane]

The vision of Allen and Fletcher. When the O-line struggled in the 2nd q they found the cutback lanes to get it going after the run game went stagnant.

*Didn't watch the 2nd half, but in the first it was dive, dive, dive..Lashlee-esque. Hoping for a little more in the a-r-s-e-n-a-l.

OL is the easy correct answer. Clean up false starts for next week.

LBs are 2nd choice. They all look great especially Kiko as has been said. Cloyd and Wes looked good. But the freshmen look really big in stature, fast and mean. I mean can y’all imagine what Bobby Washington, Malik Bryant, Popo Aguirre and Pulliam end up looking and playing like.

OL
Guidry
Colbie looked even faster tonight
Running game

Physicality - I remember Saban a few years ago stating in his press conference that our OL couldn’t handle their DL’s physicality.

I’m not saying we would handle bama’s dline but this ol certainly looks physical enough to compete at that level.

We looked like we know what we are doing. Assignment football. Achieved contain. Blockers blocked and my God we MADE tackles.

Kiko is such a breathe of fresh air at LB.

A MLB who can run, and chase plays down

And tackle

 

[RedPill Stepdad]

this team looks exponentially better all around. not 10 wins better, but 8 is reasonable. i want to see a superstar emerge on the offensive side of the ball.

OL and defensive fundamentals

I haven’t yet rewatched, but the run fits seemed levels above what we’ve previously seen. Nice slanting style from the DL, too. Should be a fun front to watch.

Wasn’t a fan of couch if anyone can get the all 22 I would love to watch him every play to see if my eyes were right. Don’t like him at star

 

[ddann]

The fact that Gabbert didn’t light up the defense was a huge upgrade from most recent seasons.

 

[Dwinstitles]

its the bodies in the uniforms especially the OL. Change players and put in true dogs not busts and you start to see changes. Slow changes but the staff knows the need top end guys they always mention it.

Thank you Bobby Washington

Dude was looking like a baller early in spring and then heard nothing about him all summer. But he def needs some more PT

 

[JHallCanes]

Tackling on defense was very nice to see also. That's been a problem for many years, and if we somehow managed to fix it this offseason, look out.

100%

Holy **** the pursuit, that was a bit of a throw back

When someone would miss a tackle there was 3 other guys right there

Love to see it

 

[cway313]

Tackling and it's not particularly close.

 

[CaneinBroward]

O Line just looks 20 times better than its been in quite a while. I know its Miami of OH, but ****, they just dominated those guys up front. Haven't seen that against any opponent in a while. Of course, we'll see how they match up next week with Texas A&M to see if it was a mirage or not. Hopefully they keep it up.

 

[TouchMoney26]

Actually, the biggest takeaway is the new coaches not substituting constantly. Letting the defense that starts finish all 3 downs to get to 4th down. For the past several years, we've had our players running more substituting than actually running in the game. Finally
