OJ Howard is still MIA. Stone hands. At least we won't have to worry about him being three and done.

I like how we are trying to get Stewart involved. Future stud IMO.

Our o-line is not very good. Hopefully the studs we've recruited on the o-line develop. I now understand why we were trying to sign any and every o-lineman in the 2014 class.

Sims is clutch.

Depriest is slow as frick.

Time to eat crow about Cyrus Jones. I thought he was the worst CB of the CNS era. I was wrong.

Nick Perry was playing like a man possessed. Damn.

Adam Griffith still scares the shite out of me. Just when you think he might turn the page he reminds you of why you were skeptical in the first place. How are we not recruiting another kicker? Preferred walk-on maybe?

If you don't mind me asking, why exactly did you think this?

Nick Perry is a pleasant surprise this year. The secondary finally looks like a decent unit.

Agree about the o line. They're not opening holes, Henry and Yeldon have to fight for every yard they get, which is about 2 or 3 YAC.

He had no visible improvement from day one of last year until the Iron Bowl. He was benched for the Sooner Bowl because of his terrible play in the Iron Bowl.

We're not winning a national title this year if they can't open holes in the game(s) we have coming up.

He's sooooooooo slow. It seemed like every big play state got in the second half was because of Depriest

He may need five years.

OJ Howard looks like Tarzan.. plays like Jane.

Point being is he played terrible last year. It wasn't just not getting his head around. He was flat out in the wrong position. That is why he was benched last year. He turned it around in the offseason big time.

I can't argue this, but you had to take into account that he played WR for a whole year before he was pushed into a starting position at DB.

I know I am coming across as a dick. I am sorry. I have been drinking. Love yall

I'm not that concerned. We may not play a better defense than the one we played today. Auburn's is hot garbage.

And lots of us were openly asking why Kiffin wasn't targeting him more. Figures.

He'll be three and done. Kiffin is gonna feed him next year, he is too talented no matter how he produces.

Yeah, I think so too. May be our #1 WR target next year/

Agreed. Well, Cam is good, but he is still a Freshman and will have Freshman plays.

Looks like it.

Yup.

He's definitely become a good player. He isn't on the level of Dee/Dre, but he is a good corner. I think Eddie is better, especially now that he is getting better, would like to have Jackson shadow bigger WRs though. Cyrus does well, but you have to expect him to give up something against big WRs. He is 5'9", a 6'5" WR will make plays on him no matter how good Cyrus is.

Glad he had a strong performance in hi final season.

We need to forget about big legged kids, just find a guy who is tough between the ears and teach him how to kick.
