[QUOTE="knoxjacket, post: 618235, member: 3550"] My observations: Defense: 1) Tackling was improved but has a ways to go. We actually made some solo open field tackles. We haven't done that consistently in years. Given that tackling is usually bad week 1 I find this very impressive. I would attribute this to the new S&C program. 2) DL is still a problem. They should some flashes early, but we have zero depth. Clemson has probably the 2nd best OL we will face all year so subsequent games will be telling as to whether we've improved here. 3) LB were absent and totally out-athleted. We HAVE to upgrade in athleticism here. Way too slow. I know Lawrence is a freak but we could not get a hat on him when he ran. 4) DB - outside of Swilling I was unimpressed. There is a reason CGC is trying to flip this part of the roster. Not enough quickness. Even guys with top end spend like Juanyeh just don't have the acceleration. Offense: 1) Mason is an absolute stud. The effort he put out there was phenomenal. He looked like he belonged on that field. 2) Brown is our best WR and the only one that can get separation. There is a reason CGC is trying to sign 4 WR this year. Need to flip this part of the roster too. 3) OL - I know Clemson is young but that it still probably the best DL we will face until UGA. I thought they did OK at run blocking and about what I expected in pass blocking. I would expect them to improve. 4) QB - Oliver is what he is. An athletic freak who is as tough as nails but not a passing QB. Johnson was scared to death. Graham did OK against scrubs. This will be a problem all year. 5) We basically ran the Tobias/TaQuon version of CPJ's offense out of the gun and got the TaQuon/Tobias offense vs Clemson results. [/QUOTE]
