I'm not going to shower the coaching staff with praise for doing a normal coach the kids and don't lose the game coaching performance.
I'm also not going to try and connect the dots because of what Georgia did against MSU.
I will though say the night was good because of what we did on the road.
The verdict is still out on how much that means because nobody really knows how good or bad the Spartans are but we needed to win and we did. Period.
Defense is light years from BVG.
Just not being confused that alone has made strides of difference. The tackling is ten times better. #4 is still a bit out of control but nothing glaring.
I can't express just how bad they were on defense under BVG. Definitely the worst tackling team I've ever seen.
It's so nice to have that garbage bullshit behind us.
I also love the don't give them nothing attitude on defense. The fumble caused at the one. Years past we just give up on that play and they score.
Offense.
Well we still have the pacifier in Wimbush.
But......one deep ball attempted all game? Just one? My god...help Brandon out and get the back seven off the line of scrimmage a bit. Just show we will at any time throw it long. Plant that seed.
Return game getting better on kickoff. Punt return still sucks.
I don't woulda, coulda, shoulda about any of this stuff and connect the dots to make myself feel better about the team...but damn it...
If this team had this defense two years ago we make the playoffs. And that makes me feel like giving BK a throttling.. lol..because he allowed his personal feelings and relationship with BVG to get in the way of reality. Damn it!!!!
After week four we are looking better collectively than we have in years. The fifteen offense was much better but the defense was atrocious.
Things are looking up. At some point though Kelly will be challenged again and we'll see if he has gotten a little bit if nerve and can pull off the miracle...win a big game. He'll get his chance again when SC comes visiting.
For now...its nice to see we're playing respectful football once again.
