🏈 Burned redshirts and first time starters...

[TerryP]

By my count, knowing I'm likely missing someone.

First time starters:

DE- Allen
MLB- Foster
WILL- Ragland
DE- Pettway
LT- Cam Robinson
QB- Sims
...

I guess we could call Griffith a first time starter. Definitely could with J.K. Scott.

True frosh:

Evans and Hamilton in the linebacking corps, Hand on the defensive line, Sims with the wide receivers, and Brown on special teams.

Cam Robinson was a beast. He is such s steal!

The one concern I had with him had to do with run blocking. He did very well there.

No sacks as a group on the OL Saturday.

Each one of these guys did something great in the game. To me if the guy can play let them.

Big Cam played outstanding. Scott has a boom on him. But, I thought all the first time starters played well

part of that praise goes to Sims, too. he did a pretty good job of scrambling away from the pursuit. but yes, the OL not allowing a sack in the opening game is definitely a good thing.

Sims did side-step a few rushers. I thought Griese made more of a deal over it than it truly was (and I mean no slight on Blake by saying that.)

A couple of times, Blake avoided what would've been automatic sacks with past QBs. Often times in the past, our QBs would've just squatted and ate the ball. I do think that there may have been some miscommunication that may have resulted in a free rusher. Again, correctible mistake.

He did a great job eluding pressure and I think he and the receivers will improve on the backyard football action that takes place during scrambling. That hasn't been a big part of bama's game in a long time.

Humphrey shows up on the stat sheet as participating, I don't recall seeing him - much harder for me to pick out ST play in the game due to the camera angles.
