Things I'd like to see against U of A

Post by Podge91 »

- A passing TD (I saw a graphic yesterday that said Alabama and Kentucky are the only 2 teams in FBS who have yet to surrender a passing TD)

- Alabama's punter on the field while the first teamers are still in the game

- No unforced penalties

- No bonehead penalties

- No VU players being carted off the field

Not giving Bama some easy scores like an interception runback for a TD, Kickoff or punt return for a TD, fumbling ball inside our 20, muffed punt catch.

Make Bama work for each TD.....run clock lol

As much as I'd like that, a TO or 2 won't upset me too badly.

It looks like Alabama has thrown 3 INT and only picked one though

control the ball on offense. make some long sustained drives and eat the clock. Keep Bama from the big plays producing a quick score

With Alabama, 2 turnovers is 14 free points.

I would settle for 8 Vandy first downs in the first half. Would indicate we moved the ball at times against the ALMIGHTY.

Also no VU injuries.

Let's just look like a football team in the 1st half. That's what I want to see before depth takes over. How tough can we be for 30 minutes

I'm good with just not being totally embarrassed where you start watching Netflix in the 2nd quarter.
