IF you look at where we are right now and what has happened in the first 5 games, there do not seem to be any individuals out there. There are playing as a team and everyone is contributing.
We are at 4-1 with a close loss to the #2 team in the country on their now field. And as bad as we looked in that game, there were chances to pull it out.
Other than that, we have conformably run our schedule with two "Ok" SEC teams and two non conference. Our defense is playing lights out and our offense is coming around
With that being said, other than Stidhams completion percentage, we do not have any players at any positions that are leading in any type of stats. The ball and yards have really been spread around of offense with everyone getting a small piece.
On defense its that same. Jeff Holland leads with 4 sacks and we dont even have a person who is in the top 50 in tackles. But, our defense is highly ranked in points allowed.
Other than Stidham, we dont have a single player that would really hurt if we lost him for any time. Backs are thin but all other positions are fairly deep. Look at how well we played yesterday without Tre Williams. Arguably the captain of the defense. Did not even know he was not out there. Depth at LB is something unheard of lately. Receivers? Got plenty .
Its nice to see we do not have all out eggs in one basket. Other than Stidham, we are sitting pretty good in most positions....
They are all playing as a team right now with no selfishness.

I think this is the most outstanding aspect of this team.

Don't drop the confetti yet... I am just glad that we are handling business like we should against inferior opponents.
The real tests will be UGA and Bama. Let's enjoy the SEC being down until then and pad some stats.
