Positives
-Jeremy Hill Mike Ford Kenny Hilliard and Spencer Ware collectively played great 260 yards rushing is phenomenal.

-Defense!!!!!!!!!! They kicked arse. held one of the best running backs in CFB to 35 yards. Got constant pressure the whole game. Good games by our safeties, Reid and Loston.

-Vadal Alexander is gonna be the best CFB lineman over the next 3 years. Guy is gonna be in the pros

-Josh D. where the hell did this guy go? he shut down Clowney good game by him.

-3rd down conversion and TOP

Negatives

-Jarvis Landry, i was disappointed by his play in the redzone. He did not run through his route, and tried to make a circus catch(just like he tried to do vs Towson) and it cost us 7 points. We did not score on that drive. Otherwise he had a good game

-Drew Alleman once again is missing field goals from less than 40 yards which is unacceptable.

-Zach had to many passes batted down which should not happen.

-Redzone offense. we cannot keep kicking field goals inside the 5 or 10 yard line. we need to score touchdowns if we want to beat Bama.

-Dropped passes, especially the one by Wright. Should have been a touchdown, but was not a good pass from Zach.


We won which is the biggest positive from the game. Now lets go kick A&M's arse next week

Safety was able to get a hand on the ball.

Way more positives than negatives tonight, but Alan Risher just said it perfect, "We don't have to make it so hard on ourselves.". 2012 red zone offense is ATROCIOUS! The next time the toss lead works in the red zone will be the first.

Also, the batted passes aren't Mett's fault. Most of our routes are thrown within 8 yards of the line of scrimmage. If he throws over the d-lines hands, it's a pick just like what happened at Florida, he had a hand in the way there.

Jesus , Dude was wide open and all Zach had to do was throw it normally and not 40 feet up in the air 10 yards behind him.

If only there was something else a WR is supposed to do in a game. Oh that's right block. Jarvis Landry blocked his arse off tonight. No way he was a negative. He sprang a few of those long runs. He was also good on special teams.

Mett needs to work on his accuracy... short armed a lot of passes and over threw some as well.

Also, with the protection we were getting tonight, we should have thrown down field more. The dink and dunk worked... but I would have like to see a few more play action bombs.

This is the major negative that I had seen.

That fade toss to Jacobs would've been an easier catch for the spectators.

No, he ran behind the defense, was wide open and turned around to catch the football, but the ball was thrown over his head.

Positive: You took USCe out of the NC conversation for a little bit. You beat an unbeaten team. Thank you, thank you.

Negative: Played well enough to have won by more.

Overall, nicely done. We do like it when undefeateds go down. Win out, and maybe we will see you in January.
