Sends condolences to Texas Tiger. He past away unexpectedly last weekend. Thanks Jack Foster for saving Peter Burns' life.
Was really impressed with Boston College. Called them fundamentally sound in all three phases of the game.
There are a lot of things to correct offensively. FG, punt, FG in the first quarter.
Happy with the swing 8 but didn't like how they couldn't put away BC in the third quarter.
10 people do things right on five plays and that can get you beat defensively.
Played well as a defense for most of the game but gave up 3 TDs and one drive away from losing.
Special teams started slow with a KR that got stopped inside of the 20. Had a shanked punt.
Proud of Blake Craig, the SEC ST POTW.
Called Vandy a difficult out for Mizzou for every year except in 2020.
He think this is Vandy's best team in the Clark Lea era.
Called S CJ Taylor one of the best defenders in the league. He will be out for the first half due to a targeting penalty, though.
Diego Pavia gives them a chance every play to make a big play.
Doesn't think Brady COok started slow he just thinks the red zone play early on wasn't as good as it needs to be.
Calls the two minute timeout significant. You can manipulate teams to run certain schemes.
Diego is a different style runner than Castellanos. He's more physical and will lower shoulder. Thinks the pass rush approach wont be the same as last week versus Boston College.
Blake Craig has put in a lot of work. he's always been really confident. Coaches and players have demonstrated confidence in him too. They never worried about him after week 2. Called him one of the most consistent performances in the weight room.
Said similarties between him and Mevis is competivie spirit. They relish the opportunity to compete and bring value to the team.
Jamal Roberts has the best understanding of protection combined with his size on third down situations. He can catch and it helps take some off the plate for Carroll and Noel.
Cook getting rid of the ball faster. Some of that is by design. Some of it is him.
Playing an extra DT last week was based on 12 personnel. So, Mizzou could control A and B gaps to limit center from going to the second level and create more one on ones for the guard and center. Thought Marquis Gracial did well playing NT.
Chuck Hicks emotionally consistent. Never too high or too low. He had 4 tackles, a TFL and a PD last week. He reinvented himself after he transferred from Wyoming.
Feels offensive line got tired in the second half and it will be hot this week vs. Vandy. So OL needs to be conditioned.
Had issues on third down protections by the OL. It took them until the second half to get it cleaned up. The sack is on the QB, RB and OL.
Biggest thing they can build off from last week is they can build on the adversity. Thinks team didn't play best ball in fourth quarter but executed when they needed to.
Lack of discipline is because of lack of accountability. He told the team to put their feelings in a box. He said LB3 deserved every bit of getting chewed out after the penalites and Burden looked him in the eyes and said, "Yes sir."
Nate Noel has worked on durability, practicing and conditioning habits. That's part of why he's doing well.
