UGA
-Offense: B+
Play calling didn't help much in the first half; we were running well but tried to go deep too often. We improved vastly in the 2nd half because we relied on the run and intermediate passing game which settled Murray down and allowed him to hit the deep passes. Liked what I saw from the running game (aside from the injury to Malcome), even if it was just Buffalo. The OL did an adequate job; not truly dominant but it was the first start for 2 of our linemen and they did alright. Burnette and Theus will be fine for Mizzou.
-Defense:C
There wasn't a whole lot of "good" from this group aside from Jarvis. The blitz packages and play calls were vanilla but there's no reason Buffalo's OL should've gotten the push they did. Jarvis Jones had 1.5 sacks and a few TFLs while Damien Swann looked good at corner, but all in all it was an EXTREMELY underwhelming performance. Hopefully Ogletree and perhaps Rambo will be back next week because walk-on Safety Connor Norman is bad...really bad.
-Special Teams:B
Our punts looked pretty good, even though there was a break down in coverage on one. Marshall Morgan did an alright job on KO's but his FGs and PATs really need to improve. I liked what I saw on returns from Gurley and Swann.
-Overall:B
We need to improve a LOT, otherwise we might finish up with a 7-5/8-4 record with our weakass schedule. At least we didn't look Florida-bad.
-Offense: B+

Mizzou
Offense - C+ The lower grade really isn't their fault, it was just hard to judge because of the opponent and with as many defensive and special teams touchdowns that were scored, it was difficult to see any real rhythm develop. Most encouraging thing may have been the play of the back up QB, knowing he can step in and play.
Defense - B 2 defensive scores but at times it still seems like our best defense against the pass is either an inaccurate passer or a receiver that can't catch. Seemed like I heard Kip Edwards name a lot and that's not a good thing. He's coming off of an injury so hopefully he can step it up.
Special Teams - B+ Would have been an A if not for a missed extra point. The kicking game could be something that haunts us all year.
