Positive surprises

[Deleted Stingtalker 69]

1) Louisville sportsmanship. Maybe it's the Petrino connection, but I was kind of surprised how well behaved everyone was.
2) Ball security. Finally.
3) #15 getting the opportunity to rack up some RAC.
4) Curry pissed me off less than usual. I still don't understand using him as a QB spy.

We made a PAT once the game was no longer in question

Satterfield is a very good coach who has a disciplined team. It was impressive to watch our coaches make the adjustments and our coach him down the stretch.

No INTs

WRT #4, I understand it. He was the victim of my wrath all of last season but have you seen the angles that #44 takes out there? No way he can be counted on in that role

The Refs actually called offensive holding

True, but his lack of clock management in last 2 minutes of the game was bizarre.

Satterfield came in with a better game plan. Our game plan initially sucked. Our halftime adjustments were much better.

Playing to our potential. Jeff Sims grew up in this game. And defense for tough in the second half.

We only missed one out of 4 and that was because the OL didn't block.

Completely different position and #44 leads the team in tackles. That being said, I doubt if we have anyone better than #6 at his position. It really is just that with our safeties' strengths, we have a lot of redundancy in his best skill set.

It was almost as if it took us watching their QB kill our defense with his legs for Patenaude to remember that we, too, have a mobile QB.

I thought we made more adjustments on defense than we did on offense.

I thought we made more adjustments on defense than we did on offense.

Probably. I just know we get our asses kicked if we didn't start allowing Sims to run more late in the first half.

Clayton had a big, big impact on the last 2 series to ice the game. Loved seeing pressure with the game on the line.

I got pretty drunk. #1

Numero Uno I thought we sucked atnkicjing again but offset that by not being a whore for turnovers.

Amen

Play calling on offense - god was it vanilla early but some good calls finally showed up - screen, qb draw, trick play, gibbs out of backfield, pass downfield to carter late when they are selling out on run. these were all good calls. Reminded me of CPJ. oh god, have I started it now. But I give the coaches credit.

I want to give a shout out to #3. I know, you didn't see him the whole game. That's the point. A CB who has no throws come his way is usually doing a superlative job.

#3 is a baller
