🏈 GAME THREAD ⭐ Ole Miss vs Alabama ~ CBS TV @ 2:30

[Sgt. Lincoln Osiris]

Ok, so D has settled in the last 2 drives.

Maybe it was Kiffin being cute on his opening drive script that was bugging Golding a bit.

Still no excuse for that many missed tackles at ANY time during a game, but ESPECIALLY at the beginning like that when we're supposed to be fresh.

Golding needs to tighten up defensive fundamentals and get our guys making plays in the open field much better.

Something Tosh and Pruitt were great at. Our backers and DBs were FIERCE open field tacklers in the past.

Not so much with Golding.

 

[bamatommy]

That looked like intentional grounding

 

[alabama mike]

That looked like intentional grounding

Sure did

McClellan was there

 

[jlabit]

Yep, we got away with that one. Sure wish those snaps weren't consistently high. Don't need a turnover.

With all the injuries we’ve had in the past years preseason… I wonder if they’ve changed the amount of live tackling they do?

 

[alabama mike]

McClellan was there

He was but he threw it behind the LOS. Glad they didn’t call it.

 

[Rolltide24]

McClellan actually caught it on the skip. Wasn’t grounding.

[bamatommy]

Williams had a TD.

Possible.

But does that also speak to Cochoran's ability to get these guys ready better in the offseason?

Seems like we were also way less nicked up in years past as well.

 

[Hardkore]

Close but not close enough.

 

[94 Grad]

Wide… da… f*ck… open. Gotta hit that one.

What?

I know they do not do as much live tackling as when many of us played. Nobody wraps and drives anymore.

 

[Sgt. Lincoln Osiris]

What?

To start the season, anyways.

 

[bamaledge]

I know they do not do as much live tackling as when many of us played. Nobody wraps and drives anymore.

That, sir, would be a penalty now days!

 

[alabama mike]

Now that’s the way you tackle, nice wrap.

 

[Sgt. Lincoln Osiris]

THAT was a nut-shot.

 

[Hardkore]

Nice hit
