Offensively we are cooking
Need better clock management

Defensively we have had two TOs that led to 14 points
However we had a stupid penalty and our run defense hasn’t been as good, though Harris is a darn good back
Secondary needs to tighten up their coverages and be more consistent

Score 21, or more in the 2nd half
Keep more people from getting hurt and get ready for the fireworks next Saturday night

I guess we will see Milton again at some point. Maybe he will be better.

Looks like Hooker is it for this season and next, but he could be injured, and we need Milton ready in case he does.

We left a couple of plays on the field at the end of the half with poor management. Oh well, I'll take 38 points.

Yep.  saban would be raving about that on the sidelines (then again, that's mostly on the coaches). Never take a play off, ever.  Breeds bad habits. 

But hey, something to work on I guess.

Yep. Second-half looked as if those bad habits were surfacing. I'm really pissed about the fake punt.

Yep. Second week in a row special teams gives up a big play.  It's gone from a strength to a big concern. The ST coach needs to lay off the chili for a week maybe and just coach em up.

Everyone in the free world should have known the fake punt was coming....I called it before the ball was snapped. Our players didn't see it however...

Pirate is claiming just one player didn't see it.  I have no idea, but it did suck regardless if it was one or eleven.

We lined up in a 4x4 on the line, two gunner defenders and Jones
If you could see coach Chili he was placing them and pointing out the positions of the SC players
The left side gunner defender just never covered his guy, stayed near the LOS
Jones was on the right hash and had a long way to get to the East sideline
The right side gunner defender covered his guy

That is when the other players call attention to it before the snap...Your players holler...check No.18....check No.18....I coached special teams a lot over the years. That's why I'd get my ass chewed out during sunday's film session and then I'd chewed out 11 players on Monday.
