The good:
We beat the dog shite out of LSU at Death Bryant-Denny Stadium West.
Our QB once again showed that when he gets confidence and play calls that actually help him he's one of the best in the country.
Multiple receivers stepped up. Scott once again and Morgan with a HUGE play when we needed it. Fun fact, Morgan has TWO catches and BOTH are TDs at critical times in the game.
Defense, just WOW. As mind numbingly frustrating as it gets playing so soft from 40yds out man can Kane turn it up when we absolutely have to have it. 0/4 on 4th down against one of the most high octane offenses in the country is nasty work.
Tackling yesterday was much better than several games this year. Luke Metz, man can that dude thump your arse.
Bobblehead Ryan is the best Ryan. The punt return was money and fuel on a momemtum fire.
Couple of clutch kicks by Talty. I don't know what they fed that boy in the offseason but grow some more of it.
Kane's emotion. LOVE IT, LOVE IT, LOVEIT !!!!
The bad:
Still absolutely suck at playcalling in the first half of games. Maybe some of it is execution but the situational playcalling is horrendous.
Multiple times all 3 and sometimes 4 receivers are all occupying the same 30 yds of the field.
STILL too many pre snap penalties. Please for the love of God pick about 5 formations and design 10 plays out of every formation. All of those shifts aren't fooling an SEC defense and are absolutely contributing to confusion on blocking assignments and early movement.
I want to list the soft arse coverage in the bad section but they absolutely don't break when the time comes.
Run game is still pretty non existent. DId AK sleep with DeBoer's daughter or something. All we heard was how good he was and I think he's seen two plays this year. WTF.
The Ugly
Ford's injury. Dude is such a fire brand and just a downright nasty MF. I saw him pancake at least two blocks. Praying for his injury to be minor.

AK has dealt with injuries the entire year.

That soft coverage defense is tough to watch, but the end result is all that matters in the end.
Tackling has to improve though. Way too many missed tackles. Wrap up...don't just throw your body at the ball carrier!
The offense had a solid first drive and then went cold until the big play to Scott in the second half got KR going. KR has to let it fly and let his WRs make some plays. Maybe then the running game opens up. It looked like we could run on lsu a little bit...but never really did.

Good
1. Efficient in the red zone 4 for 4 touchdowns. All of them felt like they saw some things in film study and wanted to take advantage.
2. Lost control of the game and responded with one of our two full-field drives to regain the lead.
3. Defense made every play they had to make. Conceded some yards on the ground but clearly front is better with Green in the middle.
Bad
1. Run game still looks iffy. Need Crowell back because he was the home run hitter.
Ugly
1. Ford injury late when we were in icing the game mode.

The good: Keelon is looking more comfortable and made good throws. He took off running more decisively. Offense took care of the football on offense.
Defense got stops and limited them to kicks for the most part.
Special teams looked great. One bad punt that ended up being good.
Bad: Run game not where it should be. Penalties. Allowing free defenders to get pressure.
Missed tackles particularly on the corners.
Ugly: pre-snap penalties

Good:
Defense was responsible for 5 turnovers (one by special teams)
Offense helped the defense out tremendously by putting TDs on the board.
Bad:
If the offense does in the 1st half what they did in the 2nd, this game is fuggin embarrassing. Need more offensive consistency.
Ugly:
Injuries to important players when the game is well in hand. Can't lose Josh Ford with 2 minutes to go up 18. While we're at it, Why was KR12 in at that point?
It's like Kirby letting QB1 be the placeholder on PATs/FGs. Why?? If it were me, I'd be really tempted to send someone on their first FG attempt knee hunting. I said "tempted."
