Good: pretty much everything for 3 quarters. We really played with all senses tuned in. You all have mentioned our fantastic QB play, but one thing he does better than the last guy is pocket awareness, and protection of the ball. Throwing it, running it, or just holding it. What a night and day change for the better this season after 2 seasons of being lost in the dark.

Bad: 4th quarter was a letdown, and we still had starters in largely. I know the game was out of reach, largely, but after watching the UGA/TENN game, let it be known that the game is 60 minutes long, and can go longer.

Ugly: I don't know about the toughness of our OL. I see them get abused by opposing defenses far too often.

yep - sometimes will look like the all-american top pick he's billed as, and sometimes looks like his feet are stuck in quicksand.
I think he is just too heavy. Saw some video of him pregame before La Monroe and his entire body jiggled. I mean... Mine does too, but he is supposed to be NFL level. At some point beyond 330, even a big framed dude loses the feet needed to be a tackle.

Being heavy can make one slow, but I think Proctors main issues relate to technique. He gets unbalanced by getting over his skis (leaning to much in any direction, but mostly forward)

100% agree. Even some of our biggest/tallest/best OTs (Fluker, Neal, Latham) were in the 330-340 range and maintained body fat in the 22-24% range. They were all just as strong (or stronger). I'd wager a decent dinner that all the weight Proctor has above that 340ish range is non-productive body fat weight pushing him well above the range the others had.

Good (Great): The Trio of Williams, Bernard, and Horton is amazing, and Ty is finding them.

Bad (needs some inmprovement but not bad imo): I would love to see more pass rush.

Ugly (mabybe): We need Keenan III and Jam Miller back
