Good: Watching AU fan get stuck in the hedges.

Bad : Complete collapse when things got tight. Usually when we shine.

Ugly: A) Inability to get off the field on 3rd down and inability to convert our own.
B) CNS record against "good" AU teams

Ugly: our focus; getting away from run game

Ugly: we found a way to lose this game; i don’t see auburn as winning it

Ugly: i have been a big supporter of Hurts, but i think he has plateaued. I dont see him getting much better. His game proficiency is pretty much the same now as it was against Clemson in the National Championship. So he has not improved as a passer at all.

Ugly: Hurts ability to read the field and get through his progressions. He has missed a lot of open receivers and his vision has not improved at all.

Roll Tide, always

Good-Nothing

Bad-Sloppy play, miscues at critical times of the game, not taking advantage of opportunities (Ridley not catching the pass thrown to him from Hurts out of our own endzone, Bo being too flat on his turn upfield on the pass to him out of the backfield allowing him to be tackled short of the first down. Robert Foster not running his route for enough yards to get a critical first down.)

Ugly- Overall bad coaching. Specifically the offensive playcalling was about as irrational and mindnumbing as one could imagine. For the life of me (and this happened all freakin' year) cannot understand why we refuse to continue to do something or series of "somethings" that work until the other team proves to us they can stop it. There is no flow, rhyme or reason in our playcalling.

The most frustrating thing about this game is Alabama has the better players, just not the better team. Auburn is a better TEAM. The sum of their parts are made to work together better than ours. If something worked, they kept going to it. From an offensive perspective, they beat us with THREE players. Their QB, their running back and whoever number 23 is. Those three players were the overwhelming bulk of every play they ran. That's sad. Real sad.

Good--Bama running backs including key blocks by Jacobs; plays made by true freshman Dylan Moses

Bad--the very-close-but-not-quite plays on 3rd down by Bama's offense; mostly mistakes by Bama with a few very good tackles made by AU defenders (could say about the same for Bama's defense)

Ugly--Penalties and mistakes

Good - I’m having a hard time here.

Bad - our new offensive identity: Whatever is working, let’s do the opposite of that.
Equally as Bad, our tackling

Ugly - According to Barkley, he had a bet with Jalen that if AU won, he had to wear an AU jersey on campus. He may wanna seriously consider a welsh on that one.

Good, we may fire and replace some of this bad coaching staff.

Bad: coaching on defenseive basics, see tackling

Ugly: offensive line development. Time we foubd a real coach for the linemen

Profoundly stupid: Damien harris had only 5 carries despite having over 8 yards a carry. I hear jim mcelwain is available and we can pay him in sharks.

good- 11-1 is good.
bad- 11-1 will probably not get us any trophies for the case this year. I'm hoping we get in the playoff, but I do not think the committee will put two SEC teams in the field.
ugly- Our fans are throwing a coach who has won four national titles in ten years under the bus over one bad game. Many of these same fans are the ones who laugh at Auburn over how they obsess over us but then turn around and do the exact same thing.

Good: Well, that was a nice save by Jeudy on the desperation heave, and, umm ... Damien and Bo had some nice runs.

Bad: Pretty bad tackling day, although we've had worse this season. OL continuing to be moist paper.

Ugly: Our playcalling. What does Daboll do throughout the week? Sort of kidding, and I want to give the guy a chance, but he just doesn't seem to have any sort of feel for play flow or sense of what needs to be done to address our weak spots (to say the least; actually, it's more like he doesn't even recognize that anything's going wrong). The whole ditch anything that works even a little, have Jalen stare at his WRs' backs while running for his life, and hope and pray that we'll sustain a drive routine is painful to watch - particularly because we all know that this team has the talent to be consistently threatening on offense.

Good: Damien and Bo when they actually got to run the ball...

Bad: 3rd downs on offense and defense, penalties, fumbles, bad snaps, my stress level that still exists this morning.

Ugly: Some of the play calling and not adapting to fit Jalen's style; Hootie's knee injury; some of the facebook posts and comments from my Auburn friends who came out of the woodwork a few weeks ago. I even had a Clemson facebook friend who is also my neighbor post War Eagle on her facebook. I never say anything verbally or on social media to my friends when we win or when we lose because I don't like to have a "friendly rivalry". I take it too seriously so I know just to keep my mouth shut.

I still have a BITTER TASTE IN MY MOUTH...
(Pardon me while I spit out some Bile)

THE GOOD.... Not a lot of good things happened for us yesterday
THE BAD....... Our OC and DC coached a poor game.
THE UGLY...... Were the Officials blind to Auburn holding on every play. They acted like it was excusable, because it wasn't overt.
THE WORSE... Now we have to listen to the Auburn clowns and the media talking heads Crow about their victory for a very long year.

Good: well, I didn't go to the game and have to see and hear all that

Bad: the smell of moth balls wafting through the air at church from all the auburn gear that has been packed away for the better part of 4 years

Ugly: orange

This pretty much sums up what I was going to post verbatim.
