[rick4bama]

Good- Bama won

Bad- Defense something was going on?

Ugly- That KO return

What did you see? I didn't I was listen to it on the radio! h/t

 

[EasyTider]

Good- no injuries (?)

Bad-edge defense, especially on short passes

Ugly-kick coverage on last KO. Pretty sure not the #1 coverage unit.

Good. fResno kicker warming up
#36. Stood in place n kicked the ball. Didnt take an approach just swung right leg. And every one through GPost.
Bad. Sun n heat for those in north end zone and east stands. Felt sorry for them
Ugly. Why is Hurts continually carrying ball with our running backs available
Don't understand

Good - Offense in general was pretty efficient. Saw the OL pick up a couple blitzes cleanly and Jalen was super accurate on short passes. Got a few more guys involved and no TO's. Clean game

Bad - Tackling. Just generally sloppy. Even saw SDH and Minkah miss a few... Not like them.

Ugly - Pass rush. Absolutely non existent. Dwight snuck through one time, but our top 2 lines didn't put any pressure on the QB.

As far as OLB's...Mosley did a lot of covering and moves well, but did not look like a difference maker pass rushing. Just plays really high and missing that strength we've seen from our studs. Allen clearly looks the part. He's missing some speed/quickness but is powerful and comes in low w/ good balance. My money would be on him as the long term replacement. Mekhi Brown is a step slow but is a big boy. Moses has a ton of closing speed but his just looks a little smaller and missing something as a pass rusher. He does however look like a really good ILB prospect... Kinda hoping he finds a home there.

good - we got the win...that's always a good thing

bad - agree with some about the defense. they had some sloppy plays at times

ugly - the guy i saw wearing an Alabama button up shirt that was unbuttoned, and a miami hurricanes t-shirt underneath. seriously dude, wtf?!

 

[Bama Guy]

Good - a tiny little bit of pass rush
Bad - poor pass rush
Ugly - nonexistent pass rush

 

[EasyTider]

Team needs a good deal of work but Saban is in mid-season form.

CNS asked about OL play, turned question back to Drew DeArmond......:notworthy

 

[Bamabww]

Good: So much good I can't list them all: Didn't miss any kicks, 6 or 7 receivers caught passes, playing lots of freshmen, etc

Bad: OL didn't make a hole for Najee Harris on the goal line

Ugly: (?) The Viking center for Fresno State (loved his attitude.)

 

[Destiny's Child]

The good: No more major injuries.

The bad: the tackling as a hole. I made my boys close their eyes it was so bad. But it was across the board not just one person. Tackling a real team like that gets us beat bad.

The ugly: lines of scrimmage. We got beat at the line of scrimmage by a poor Fresno state team. If we don't improve there and fast I think we will be a 10-2 type football team. Big boy Football is a line is scrimmage game and we aren't very good there right now. Auburn' s lines would push us all over the field.

We have the talent to improve and hopefully we were just sleep walking thru the game but we have to be much better to go all the way.

Ha ha, that was pretty good.

 

[TUSKtimes]

Wasn't good, bad or ugly but at least the most ironic statement during our football game was to learn that Fresno State has a kicker who is a Lou Groza award finalist. Unfortunately for him, he didn't play. He was beaten out and watched from the sidelines. Talk about the rich getting richer.

 

[We All Bleed Crimson]

Good: Victory! Young players got to enter game early. Hurts was efficient passing and blew it up with his running.
Bad: D. (I realize that we have some inexperience to work through with last week's injuries, but we didn't appear very inspired.)
Ugly: California's ban on travel to Alabama (except when their school stands to make $1.4 mil)

 

[alabama mike]

Good- Lots of players getting game reps.

Bad- in consistent play on the OL/ DL. OL was better than last week but should be in week 2.

Ugly- nothing really jumping off the page.
