Message: [QUOTE="smartman, post: 4507675, member: 4958"] Few observations from the game. - Love that we were in a bowl. Disappointing result, but love that we had another 5 weeks or so to care about football. It was great to be at the game althoguh tough to see from many parts of a baseball stadium. - Bailey made some plays. Where has he been? Nice bright spot for next year. - As good as Bailey was, I was wondering where McDonald, Sparrow, Roon, and Jones were. I assume Jones sat out after declaring, but what about the others? I saw Lowery on the sideline a bunch. Thoughts? - Also, did I see a few times where they seemed to play 4 traditional linemen with Darton and Fuentes/Baste out there. Geer seemed to play in 2 point stance a bunch. Did I miss something? It was tough to see live. - Barron and Simmons seemed all over the field. Darton is just always in the middle of plays - kid is good. - Overall, defense let up 21 points - 7 after a long return. That's not too shabby. New secondary folks seemed to hold up okay with reinforcements coming next year. - Offense - I actually thought from the last drive of the first half through the game we moved the ball well - just couldn't punch it in. Pick 6 was a dagger. - Allen looked very good and proved he can be an every down back. He looked fast, broke some tackles, had good vision, and great hands. Slipped a few times which seemed to be a problem for many. - I thought Cooper played a heck of a game and made some very tough catches. He seems like a good teammate and glad he went out with a good game - Gadsen looked good again. I really think Alford can be our second guy. Has all the tools. Was glad to see Adams play more. Need more though. - OL...seemed just okay. Hoping we continue to improve. - I know a lot have thoughts on Shrader. He can still improve and some head scratchers, but I'm excited to have a 5th year senior lead us next year. Excited about 2023...curious who steps up to lead. All in all...didn't hit the high bar we though was there in October, but overall enjoyed the season. Go Orange! [/QUOTE]
