🏈 The Good, The Bad and The Ugly vs. LSU

[alabama mike]

Good- best defense in the country does it again

Bad- CLK play calling

Ugly- offensive line play

 

[bama alum]

Good 1: This team staying calm and focused (minus that one ridiculous moment) throughout the game
Good 2: STELLAR defense!

Bad: Someone getting lost in the Waffle House menu too much

Ugly: Me not betting Bama bucks on the line...

 

[UAgrad93]

Good- a win in the SEC on the road. Hurts is still as the other side of the pillow. Defense allows 125 yards!!!!!!

Bad- Team ends streak of NOTs.

Ugly- timing of plays!! 4 straight pass plays before the missed FG after running the ball effectively. 1) complete to Ridley right side for a 1st down, incomplete, incomplete, incomplete.

 

[RoeTied]

Good: The defense. Jalen's lower half.

Bad: The officials. Jennings cheap shot for no reason.

Ugly: The offense in general. O line got whooped. Our passing game wouldn't pass as a pee wee team's.

 

[OldPlayer]

Good: Defense. Jalen Hurts sporadically

Bad: Jalen Hurts' passing

Ugly: Jalen Hurts' passing

 

[jocephus8179]

Good: Defense, as always.

Bad: 1) O-line play.
2) My nerves.

Ugly: Lane Kiffin hates running backs.

 

[RoeTied]

Did anyone else feel Damien Harris looked especially lost out there tonight? Every time he was in the backfield he seemed to need reassurance of the play and on the play where we had to burn a TO to avoid delay of game he just lost it in frustration.

 

[JoshB]

The Good: The defense made Leonard Founette their bitch yet again...

That's all that matters. That defense are Gods among boys. Defensive line and backers are just outta this world. Was pleasantly surprised by Minkah's play at safety. Hootie and Tony Brown did well in their spots too.

 

[BamaFan334]

Good - Gritty win. Bo Scarborough running the rock hard, hard! We need a Henry type pounding in these games to start knocking defenses of their base and I think Lane failed, even with Bo averaging 6 a carry till the end of the 4th quarter. Pissed me off quite frankly, but Bo had some killer runs.

Bad - our field goal kicker and how I feel the coaches are losing confidence.

Ugly - Kiffin's play calling. Hurts is not at fault passing tonight. Kiffin dinked and dunked right intk the teeth of their defense refusing to run the ball most of the game. He kept LSU and the crowd in the game the entire 4 quarters.

 

[EasyTider]

Defense was outstanding. Hurts had his worst game of the season against a VERY good LSU D but still managed to make plays and lead us to the W with some great runs mixed in with many bad plays. OL struggled but play calling seemed to contribute. There were many times that LSU seemed to blitz right into the play that was called.
Hoped to see progress in passing game with week off and emphasis on getting better throwing but LSU D was on point. Not sure Hurts will get to where we hoped to this year, but I think more throws to our TEs would help. (PS-did OJ Howard get suspended after our 1st offensive play?

Rewatching now and Cotton struggled against a very good LSU front

 

[Bamabww]

Good / Great: Our Defense, no drop-off at Safety

Bad: growing pains at the punt returner position

Ugly: Sideline incident

 

[RollllTide!]

Good: Fantastic Defense. Took their soul away.
Bad: Offensive line not protecting Jalen Would have made a big difference.
Ugly: Kicking Game was terrible

That sounds like, I'm just saying sounds like-not saying it is, sounds like, you are saying "play calling". Not saying you are, but you know, those are plays - specifically four pass-plays in a row. If you are objecting to play calling, some people on this board will object to your questioning the staff. It's happened before on this board when Bama refuses to run the ball. I mean, some people think the current coaches pass the ball too much and others think that if the first three drives are three plays each and in within each set then two of the three plays are passes then that's not passing... and they get mad.

So, be careful in your wording and using facts, and stuff. Bama scores lots of points a game and stuff. Kiffin and those guys make lots of money and stuff. They know play calling and things. And, I know you played and all but those people will get mad... and stuff.

 

[PurlJam]

Good: That ice bath Etling is gonna be soaking in.
Bad:What the hell was A. Jennings thinking or maybe not thinking?
Ugly: The 4th down call on the goal line....play never had a chance (watching college football sunday, it shows Kiffin after that play, looks like he said he(Jalen) ran the wrong play.... I'm not an expert lip reader, so he could have also been ordering a Happy Meal.

 

[TUSKtimes]

Good: Any win against LSU in Baton Rouge on a Saturday night.
Bad: Da'Ron Payne daring any corndog on the sidelines to do something about it. That's a 'bad' man.
Ugly: The super-duper nuclear meltdown that will follow the tiger fans until next Bama game.

 

[Tidestalker]

Good: The front 7 is absolutely dominant. I can't really speak on the D Backfield because their QB is so pathetic, but Fournette got nothing. Those guys are tough

Bad: Penalties. Seemed like there were a lot of them on the O in particular

Ugly: Lateral Lane falling in love with the sideways plays

 

[rueben]

Good: 4th quarter clock management (Bama had the ball for 13:35, LSU for less than - minute and a half.)

Bad: Redzome play.

Ugly: our online who couldn't have blocked a sneeze last night.

 

[bamachine]

That one time on 3rd and goal, if he handed it off, up the middle, Harris walks in for the TD, instead faked and kept to go right and stopped short. The interior OL had pushed their guys back into the EZ.

 

[94 Grad]

The Good: offense held ball for 13:35 of 4th quarter.


The Bad: no score for 3 quarters.

The Ugly: Griffith.

@TheChief , I'm going to tell you something that will have no bearing on your life whatsoever but I feel it needs to be said...I like you.
