Great job by the defense adjusting. Held them to less than 100 yards in the second half and the only points came off a pick by our offense. Gives me some confidence in our coaching staff to adjust when things aren’t working.

Weigman has really gotta clean it up tho. His mistakes are BIG mistakes. He should’ve had 4 picks today. Gotta be better than that moving forward.

It was ugly at times but a win is a win. Onward.

“So what do you need to clean up on defense in the second half?”

Elko: “Everything”

Just the difference in attitude alone compared to Jimbo makes me so happy

Jimbo was a master of saying the right things in interviews which was refreshing after Sumlin but he just checked out after 2 years

I think it was longer than 2 years, but he went from firing everybody up after a loss to "we just need to execute"... every. single. week. Don't know if it was something in his personal life, being richer than he ever could have imagined, having a ranch where he'd rather be or what, but those last 3 years he just did not seem to give a shit (outside 'bama '21).
