Versus Florida and Ole Miss. Looked extremely exposed. Both teams went straight down our throat, but then we seemed to figure it out later in the game. I’d rather this than the latter, but we can’t afford to give Bama a quick TD to start. What’s the issue? Are we just choosing bad coverage or are there some initial mistakes being made on defense?

Edit: and Auburn, FSU, etc

3rd-best rushing team in the nation.

Lane scripted a passing drive.

Caught us off guard but we adjusted.

I thought Kellys post game was interesting yesterday - media asked about the adjustments and Kelly joked about it being secrets. But then he said something about trying to cover up our weaknesses early, then maybe realizing they aren't weaknesses and then adjusting to just letting them play fast.

What I took from that - sometimes we're being too analytical in creating the game plan and looking to figure out where the other team will try to exploit our weakness and trying to mitigate it. And we do better when we just let our guys do the thing they do best.

I said the same thing yesterday about ole miss. ESP going down 14-3. But it worked out. As long as you’re able to adjust and respond offensively you’ll be ok.
