🏈 The Good, Bad and Horrible Thread vs, Arky

[alabama mike]

Good- our defense played well and we have a fantastic punter.

Bad- Lack of a running game. Somebody please share the ball with Fowler

Ugly- Where do I start? Penalties over and over.

Horrible- Special teams, they aren't to special.

Good- JK Scott All American Punter! Defense played winning football. Gave up 334 yards on 83 snaps.
Bad- determination or just plain stupidity to run to the right.
Ugly- Christion Jones didn't get fired fast enough on return teams! Bobby Williams, please retire or tell CNS you want out! He likes that loyalty but DAMN, YOU ARE KILLING US!

 

[rick4bama]

Good: Scott
Bad: No running game at all.
Ugly: fumbles we had to many.
Horrible: Me, I haven't seen Bama play like this in a very long time.

The OL was horrible. They couldn't open a hole in a piece of cheese. American cheese. That really soft stuff.

 

[Eabama]

Rinse....spit...repeat...with every post. We all know the problems, posting about them changes nothing.

Good - Our Punter, again. Our run defense was pretty stellar against a strong running team.

Bad - Our pass coverage. We simply cannot stop anyone on 3rd down in seems. We cannot pass cover.

Ugly - Everyone on the offensive line not named Cameron Robinson. A true Freshman is our best player.

Blake Sims can't even set his feet to throw because he has someone in his face every play. In turn, it makes him look bad and like he can't throw. We can't get lined up for a play or audible without issue. I have no clue why we don't run left behind our best player more. I don't know why Christion Jones is allowed to touch the ball on any Special Teams type play. I am more than willing to sit back there and catch a damn kick if they'll pay my student loans, I still have four years of eligibility. I'm starting to wonder if we have something going on like the Blacksox, because we have no more feet to shoot at because we've shot ourselves in the feet so much. We will lose three more games easily if we can't solve the penalties and fumble problems. We can work and win with the other issues, but the mental errors cannot continue. On the bright side, our defense appeared to play like 90% (my thoughts and exaggerations) of the game and still held their own.

 

[Crimson&WhiteGecko]

Have we changed back to the zone blocking scheme like back in the Shula days?

OR

Do we miss Kelly that much?

I hope it is the later...

The only thing worse than our Oline play are these "Good, Bad, and Ugly" threads each week.

 

[Bamabww]

Any time Bama wins and awbarn loses it's good.

Anytime our defense only allows 5 yards rushing in the second half, it's good.

our offense is ugly when it doesn't execute.

 

[BAMA JAMMA]

Good: we won.
Bad: The penalties (again), ball security (again), stupid decisions from veterans (again).
Horrible: uninspired look and ho-hum demeanor of the team. Frustrated coaches on sidelines. Zero improvement and seems to get worse each game as if that was imaginable or possible.

 

[bamafan4ever]

Good...It was a win and with all of the mistakes, that's a miracle and good defense. The only negative about the defense was too many 3rd down conversions yielded.
I also thought Tessitore and Huard did a good job calling the game and was fair.

Bad- The offense.

Ugly- That guy with the Hawg mask on!

Horrible - S-teams except punting which was exceptional.

 

[planomateo]

The Good - JK Scott & defense.
The Bad - We are in need of a TE that can block, lack of rhythm on the offensive side of the ball.
The Ugly - Arkansas defenders who clearly should caught all 3 passes gifted to them, miscues in Special Teams

Hammer meet nail!
I would just like to add that( chief will like this) Sims is not good. Try Coker or the thired sting guy. They can't be any worse and it might benefit the future instead of having another first year starter,

Sims did poorly much of the night, but he also made some critical plays at times. I don't know if Coker would have been a better option considering the Oline was getting steam rolled and Sims had to flee so often.

I agree. I believe most of Sims issues (and our RB's issues) stem from sub par O-line play.

So angry last night, I thought it better to cool down before commenting.

The Good: Run Defense and Best Punter in America
The Bad: Offensive Line and its Coach Mario Cristobal
The Ugly: Untimely Penalties and Fumbles on Special Teams

Nick gets paid big time bucks to make these decisions, but methinks it is time for some coaching changes. Mario Cristobal needs to hit the road. Despite getting 4 and 5 star recruits, our offensive line is not getting it done. Cyrus Kouandijo was a highly rated 5 star LT and did not get the draft rating he probably should have received, considering his potential. The best offensive lineman last night was a true freshman. Too many administrative penalties from that line indicates lack of proper coaching. Mario might be a great recruiter, but I question his teaching abilities. The special teams/TE coach Bobby Williams needs to be in the unemployment line today. The mistakes there are too numerous to list, but you don't need me to point them out. I think you guys faulting Blake Sims are dead wrong. He is not an AJ McCarron, but Peyton Manning would have had difficulty behind the offensive line we displayed last night. All the problems I saw throughout the game reflect bad coaching. Just my opinion. If you don't want me to post it any more, say so. But last night was painful to watch. Especially with the talent available on this team.

 

[alabama mike]

@jlabit, well said. It is hard to believe our OL is playing so poorly.

 

[rick4bama]

Eli said that Coker had an ice pack on his shoulder, did anyone see him with this tape to his shoulder?

 

[psychojoe]

Just among our seniors=

good- Xavier Dickson is having the kind of senior year every senior should be having

bad- a certain senior OL who came from the juco ranks got his seventh false start penalty of the season

ugly - a player who would have been considered an All America candidate in the return game has forgotten what he knew about ball security and catching the ball.

 

[TheChief]

Coker must be playing intramural ball... and throwing it all over the yard.
