Auburn
Offense - A
Was really impressed with JUCO transfer Duke Williams. He will be a perfect compliment to Sammy Coates and the rest of the WRs. Running backs took a hit with the injury to Barber, but CAP impressed as did Grant. The highlight of the offense had to be the improved passing ability of Marshall. He was accurate, moved well in the pocket, and had good touch on the deep and intermediate routes. His footwork was also much improved from last year.

Defense - B+
Hard to really judge improvement on this side of the ball with so many starters held out due to precautionary tactics and or injuries. JUCO safety Derrick Moncrief stood out as did Trovon Reed. Most positive take away was the absence of Jake Holland

Special Teams - C-
Punter is serviceable, but punts low line drives with very little hang-time. Kicker looked terrible. Missed an extra point and barely squeaked in a 50 yarder with a gale force wind at his back. Not looking good

Overall Auburn looks to have picked up where they left off after a BCS Championship run.

Offense-B

Defense- B+

The loss of Golson hurts like a bitch so right now I'd probably downgrade our offensive potential to a B-

Didn't watch, but reading some reactions we'll be lucky to win a game this season.

Defense good.

Quarterback and offensive line play bad.

Good thing it's only a spring game.

Bama went 1-1 again so I give them a C. Happens every fricking spring.

Not really hard to look bad going against 2nd team Auburn defense...

Defense - A
Offense - C
Special Teams - D (but that's only based on field goals)

It is pointless to try to evaluate a team based on a spring game.
