So...

Maybe, but it seems like there were more than one game saving moment on defense, since they weren't stopping shit on downs.

 

The way he chased that down I thought it was Abernathy at first with shades of TAMU.

 

True, you could assume both fumbles saved touchdowns

 

I did like that they covered fumbles right away and didn't clumsily try to scoop them. That's a positive.

Hard to find defensive positives, so I'm digging deep.

 

I was just reminded by a b*** a** friend of mine who lurks here that it was Foreman that punched the ball out in College Station.

 

No penalties, Martin got pulled early, two turnovers and Taylor and Bituli emerged as legit defensive guys.

That's about it

 

Martin getting pulled early is really stretching the concept of "positive," but so be it.

 

Hey, if it means he's no longer getting lost on routes over 8 yards, I'll take my chances with Osborne or Buchanan

 

Was there someone that was making Shoop look better than he really was at Vandy and PSU? I get that the offense didn't do him any favors, but I'm having a hard time finding a good defense for his playing Martin, like at all, and with Bituli being hidden in the midst of all those injuries last year.

Also Jumper still blows

 

So... Is Butch still the head man at the end of the season.

 

It's a long season

 

Only 1 game in, no one knows.

 

Franklin had an offensive identity. He ran the ball and tried to play ahead of the chains and the scoreboard. Thst let Shoop be aggressive.

Butch's o looks like my 5 year old pushing random buttons while playing madden.

 

Yes. Watching the two offenses was interesting. they had rhythm and purpose. We looked scattered and hap hazard. So glad we won anyway.

 

Defense.

 

I'm not at all sure what kind of low-life you'd have to be, so as to compel TT to call you a "[itch bay] ass".

 

Actually probably exactly the opposite of one do that it doesn't ring too close to truth. Haha

 

Yeah he's been a big disappointment
