ALABAMA: More of the same from best team in the country. Separation between Bama & the pack seems to be extending weekly. DL very disruptive. OL looked good with a change at left guard. The balance is unlike any offense I’ve seen.

ARKANSAS: Needed that win. Shows continued growth from Morris & co over the course of this season. Big game from Agim up front on defense. Boyd too valuable to have fumble issues. Must clean those up. Collins did just enough. Builds confidence in the system. Winnable games left.

AUBURN: A win for that team is big based on last few weeks. Offense showed new wrinkles early. Seemed to try spread defense out before going to the run. Quick pass game is there. Defense got stops when needed,esp red zone. Need that Whitlow. Thought 77 had his best game of the yr

LSU: Win turnover battle. Run the ball. Protect QB. This team has the formula for success that they replicate weekly. Sluggish on offense but found momentum. Great teams find ways to win. Sets up gigantic clash in two weeks. Losing White for 1st half vs Bama is just brutal.

KENTUCKY: Won a conference game with 18 yards passing. Going to need some balance moving forward but credit this team for finding a way. That’s all that matters at this point. Snell huge late. Allen with another 4th QTR strip sack. Guy is like Mariano Rivera closing games.

MISSISSIPPI STATE: Lack balance on offense. Fitz was going to have to make plays with his arm to win it. Turnovers made life too easy for LSU. Forced no stress on their offense. Defense shows up. Physicality still there. Miserable on 3rd down. Keaton has to be a serious option.

MISSOURI: Nice won vs a quality G5 team. Offense got rolling & didn’t stop. Have a chance to rack up some wins down the stretch.

OLE MISS: One of the worst tackling performances I’ve seen. Too much freelancing & too high risk on that side of the ball. Offense needs points in scoring position. Protection was an issue. Needed to keep pressure on that defense to get them out of their plan. FGs aren’t enough.

TENNESSEE: Can’t be one dimensional vs Bama. Protection issues showed up early. Atrocious on 3rd down. Credit Guarantano for sticking in. Need to regroup quick with a trip to Columbia. Bowl still possible.

VANDERBILT: Defense was great for the majority of the game. 2nd & 3rd levels very active. Weather impacted Shurmur a little but protection broke down often. Needed more points off the early turnovers. Left some points out there late. Can’t question the effort Mason gets.
