Positives

- Everyone played and other than Alec Abelin nobody got hurt.
- Marvin Zanders showed he could be a nice change of pace / wildcat QB, if needed.
- I love that Heupel continues to prioritize keeping Lock protected, holding RBs and TEs in when needed.


Negatives

- Tucker McCann is still not settled with his place kicks.

I'll start with negatives since they were few.

Negatives-

1. Who the hell scheduled this team?
2. Dropped balls near the goal line.
3. Defense. I'm used to the dominating fashion of defenses of past years. It'll take time for me to adjust to this read and react style defense.

Positives-

1. This team improves every week. Both on offense and defense.
2. Coaching seems to be getting more settled.
3. Play execution is getting better.
4. Like the hard nose toughness of the offensive players.

Tough to really tell. But another big test is next week with LSU. They have a good chance at knocking them off if they keep improving and executing plays.

Wait defense is a negative? They gave up 140 total yards, 0 points, and forced multiple turnovers.

I think both this game and EMU are results of switching from Big 12 to SEC. the Big 12 only had 3 noncon games. Mizzou had to wait a year to see if the SEC was going to change its scheduling to 9 conference games also. FCS will still happen, but I bet they stay to mostly regional teams.

Most of those yards were gained when we started playing guys 2nd and 3rd in the depth chart too. They might have had 1 first down against our #1's I think.
