I have to say that watching the game at JHS, I was much more aggravated then when I watched the replay on TV. I'm thinking that much of the negativity from us fans comes from a mixture of the zealous anticipation for Auburn football and the defensive debacle from last year. After calming down and watching with a clearer head and no alcohol in me, I did see some good improvement. Also, with the soft zone that we played much of the night, any team will rack up yardage on the underneath pass. I am hoping that the reason for this soft D was to protect plans for SEC foes. I mean, the coaches may be thinking that we have to protect our schemes as much as possible to keep some element of surprise. Most of the SEC teams we play will have more depth than us. Although I am sick of using this excuse, this is a fact. I was glad to see much better tackling fo sho.
