Re-watching the SECCG and reminiscing on how sexy that first drive was. Kiffin just straight up dialed up perfect plays in the hurry-up against a really good Missouri D. Was a thing of beauty.
I can't remember a better opening drive than that one in the Saban era. Here's to hoping we see more of this in 2015.

Opening drives against UF and UT this year were pretty darn good too IIRC

Well yeah, can't beat those I reckon. GIFs of those opening drives:

The way Drake outruns that safety is something you normally only see in a high school highlight reel

Yep. and boy am I going to miss Sims's beautiful bombs.

I am ridiculously excited about seeing Drake's return. I can not imagine how much more dynamic our already exciting offense would have been if Drake were healthy last year. Drake and Cooper on the field at the same time was a thing of beauty.

We went three and out against Michigan in 2012.

This drive was incredible, no doubt, BUT the first play was a tackle for a loss. Not that it mattered, but it wasn't the PERFECT drive.

We went 3 and out on the opening drive of this game. But that second drive was amazing.

God that 2009 team was loaded to the teeth.

Coop loved him some Tennessee.

I also noticed, when these two GIFs are synced up from the point of Blake Sims release of the ball to the reception from Drake and Coop, Drake catches it at around the 47 and Cooper around the 19. About a 28 yard difference. Drake reaches the endzone only about 13 yards ahead of Cooper and that is with Cooper stutter stepping and slowing down at the end of his run.

Speaking of the SECCG, have they gotten their rings for that yet?
