I know this is nitpicky as duck but :

My buddy and u were taking pros and cons of the game and one con that we both came up with was there seemed to be quite a bit of players taking bad angles.

How much of that is on players versus coaching vs athleticism. How correctable is it?

Very correctable. Film room and commentary by the DC will instruct the backs and should fix the problem. If not, the backup comes in.

Yes Kirby said he was sick on his stomach after seeing all that needed to be corrected.

Yeah Kirby speaks like a perfect mixture of Saban and Dabo.

I definitely noticed this as well. Defensive front wasn't very disciplined at setting the edge and then our DBs weren't taking good angles at all against those misdirection runs. But I also remember seeing an obvious hold on Mo Smith during the first long run that wasn't called.

Those mistakes are certainly correctable. The good news is that we won't see many RB duos like Hood and Logan the rest of the year. I'd argue that Tennessee is the only one that will be close.

I think our interior line did a good job against the inside run though.

I actually believe they'll actually address/correct those bad habits, unlike the prior administration.

Well, there are more important things than football. It's kind of ridiculous to expect a football coach to focus solely, or even primarily, on football.

In particular on the Logan big runs. I am guessing they underestimated Logan's speed. When he got to the edge he could really turn it on.

But, yes. Correctable.
