Game notes UC vs Bama

[hscoach]

First: I want to congratulate the Bama coaches and players on the win. 

Offense:   In this practice game Bama put up 435 yards of offense and missed a possession because of a punt return for a TD.  They had 2 negative plays on offense, both tackle for losses.  The other negative play came in the special teams.   They had 15 plays of over ten yards, 8 runs and 7 passes.  They were in the red zone only 3 times and scored TDs each time.  They scored 3 times from outside the red zone, 2 passes and 1 run.  The other TD came on the punt return.  They had no three and outs, but they did miss a 4th down open Howard which turned the ball over after a drive. 

QB:  Not much to say here except his techniques was a lot better this game.  This probably was due to the competition because he didn’t get much pressure.  Sims made one good throw to Black, but it looked like he gave up on routes or didn’t pull the trigger. 

RB:   They ran hard and it was good to get the others in there to get some real game experience.

REC:  They were open all day.  They did a good job blocking and many players got catches.

OL:   They seem start slow.  It looked like they may not have been sustaining the block, but the game on the computer was a little behind and I didn’t see all the play at times.  AK did not come back in after he left in the second quarter.  They got some good quality time for the backup line and I thought they did well, computer was better after half time.   They made some good combo block and got to the second level.

Defense:  The defense gave up 175 yards.  They had 6 tackles for losses, 1 sack, 1 int, 1 fumble, and a blocked FG.  They had 4 three and outs along with one 4 and out.  They gave up 3 pass plays for over 10 yards and 1 running play for over 10 yards.  They also had a chance to get many backup for quality work.  The negatives were they lost contain a few times and they missed a few tackles. 

DL:     They played pretty well and rotated many players in.

LB:  Again, I thought DePriest had a good game.   

DB:  The DB’s lost contain a couple of times and they corners were getting cut.  They must do a better job here. 

Penalties:  They had 2 penalties for 20 yards. 

Special teams:  There were 2 big plays here.  First, the fumble, and the D made a stand where it didn’t hurt.  Second was the punt return for the TD.  Jones had had a convoy of players escorting him into the end zone. 

Finally:  This was a game where there was little emotion, but they knew they were playing an outmanned team.   They can’t afford to come out slow next week. 

Good Luck and Roll Tide Roll 
15 and counting

Wow coach, you were quick on this one.  I thought the slow start was no big deal. Hard to get up emotionally for this game. They will be ready next week.  BTW, how do you feel right now about next week?

I think Bama will play good assignment football and see if AU can throw the ball.

Thanks HSC.  NOW WE CAN TALK ABOUT AUBURN!!!!  ROLL TIDE!!

And wasn't it great to see our seniors have their last game at Bryant Denny end in such style?  They have provided many fond memories!

I hope the team that showed up in the 2nd half of LSU game shows up from the first play against the Barn.

Thanks for the recap coach.  I slept through the game last night.  After hosting 15 people for a pre-Thanksgiving turkey dinner and having to lead a meeting after church today I wasn't going to stay up from 2:00-5:00 AM for Chattanooga.  Very glad we got an easy win without any injuries.

Thanks again Coach. I didn't see the game either. When did CNS take the starters out?

[pmull]

I will watch the replay tonight. I listened to Eli yesterday. It sounded like Derrick Henry had a good day. He had 6 carries for 66 yards. It also sounded like Chris Black made a couple of nice plays including a 31 yd TD run.

Thanks Coach. There were a few players that I thought made the most of their chance to play. As far as the subs, I thought Jonathan Allen, Rueben Foster, Derrick Henry, and Reggie Ragland made the most of their time on the field. These four will make a lot of noise on the field before they graduate. Ragland looked very good on kickoffs. There were others that did well but these four caught my eye.

Also, Alec Morris came in on the last play of the game, could this have been an indicator as to who will replace AJ next year?

Thanks hscoach, for your report. I didn't get to see the game either and I was wondering after the game was over how we looked. I myself have a short time 24 this week. I am hoping to not get burned out this week and become excited at the right time. Same for our players. RTR!

I enjoy reading the game notes each week. Great job.  I did get to watch the game on PPV yesterday and I gotta say, the PPV broadcast is far and away better than the dementia twins calling games on CBS.  How long until they retire?

I agree.  I did miss the yellow first down line though, and since I paid $40 to see the game I don't want any commercials for Tuscaloosa Toyota!  Just show the band or something.
