need to pick it up in the kicking game. i think it will be fine.
i have zero problem with coach giving hurts some pt. i doubt we see it in an important game unless tua gets hurt or we are stalling out and can use hurts' running.

The running back depth chart is ALL screwed up. Our best back is 4th string, but it's just more of the same complaints with Saban not starting the best player for political or seniority reasons

imo, we have 4 great running backs. Let him all get carries and feed the hot one if you need too. We are very fortunate at the RB position.

Our best RB is Damien Harris followed by Robinson then Jacobs and Najee is 4th in my opinion. I don't think Najee has the speed to be a true featured back in the SEC.

Y’all are fricking killing me with this. The kid does not want to play a different position and is the number two QB. If they moved hi
He would have transferred already.

I wouldn't go that far. He looked like our best RB in the natty. I think they are all elite.

Most glaring to me is how they forgot to cover the backs coming out of the backfield on pass plays!
No pass rush without blitzing.
D lineman not wrapping up on those tackles.
Penalties, penalties, penalties !!!!

Wrong. Josh Jacobs is the best RB on the team. He will start for an NFL team one day. The separation is very thin, though. I love B-Rob but I think D Harris and Najee are great too. B-Rob will have his time to shine eventually.

Mental Errors on defense.... It seemed to me a lot of the blown coverages were the LBs, but I could be wrong. I thought our CBs actually did well.
Also I wish Tua would start sliding

THIS ! ^
Also could we get Locks to stop calling any QB runs with Tua in the game ? Totally not necessary... at all.

It would be nice if the third team offense was allowed to run more plays than the ole dive up the middle. I'm sure Mac Jones would appreciate being able to actually throw a couple of passes.
BRob still averaged 6 ypc with everyone in the stadium knowing what was coming, and running behind the second team OL.

The offensive line was not good tonight.
The secondary left one man completely uncovered on many plays.
I'm VERY used to us missing kicks, but, DAMNIT, why the frick are we the only team in CFB who can't find a fricking kicker who can put a kickoff in the end zone.
The refs made several bad calls, but holy frick, we committed a lot of stupid penalties.
On the other side of the coin, Thompson is amazing. He's my favorite player. Tua looked great. Jacobs was awesome.

I would have liked to see Bulovas attempt a FG.

Kicking game, absolute garbage.
Almost missed the first two extra points, did miss an extra point, then shanked a chip shot field goal.
Officials were horrible. Very flag happy, were itching to call flags on both sides the whole night.

I think that Elliot Baker deserves some meaningful playing time being as he works his arse off and loves his team. He may not be as good as the other guys but he is clearly unhappy not playing. Feed this big boy.

That is 100% done on purpose. As long as there are no frick ups like on the one return last night, if they try to return it from right at the goalline, we typically end up bringing them down before they make it to the 25.

My two big concerns are the OL and kicking game. The OL should probably come together by the time we play anyone who can give us a game, but it was still a little concerning that they were getting beat by a trashcan defensive front like Louisville's. The kicking will be shite all year, again. Fortunately it looks like we won't need it much with Tua and Friends on offense.
