A very late TD by Eastern Washington to make it look closer. LOTS of positives to discuss after today's game. For me . . . Offense: Seeing Kitna and how well he played and still ran the offense. Defense: Seeing all the young players out there and doing well for the most part. What does everyone think?
Agree with your thoughts as well, @ETGator . Really glad we were able to play this one. Thanks to Scott Stricklen for making it happen!

The defense sucks. People will say we bent but did not break, but the fact is that an FCS team got 16 first downs and moved the ball up and down the field against our starters in the 1st half. This is not an SEC-caliber defense.
Might be the last win for awhile. Offensively great things but we still can't sustain drives running the ball unless we use QB/receivers. Finally got some nice punt returns! Defensively is where I think we lose every game until Vandy. I think we can be competitive, but these games other than Georgia are going to be close losses. We might get lucky and win 1 or 2 like we did against Utah. Fans are going to have to suck it up for a bit and take a triple dose of Xanax. I said 6-6 before the season and right now that's aggressive. I just don't see who we beat other than Vandy. I know an FCS on a noon Sunday isn't easy to get up for, but EW didn't show it and to them the game started at 9am.
I feel Dexter is content on being a late 2nd day, 3rd day draft pick. He will get drafted because of his size not his desire. He disappears. He should have been dominant in this game.
I hope Montrell is ok....OK..... Lingard looked good reading the blocks and holes. Kitna looks better than I was expecting, can feel the pressure and get rid of the ball... Where was Chris McClellan on D?..... He was a beast against UT..... GO GATORS!!!!
Muschamp was really complimentary of Toney and said we really got a good one. I personally was glad to hear that.
Think we have a good QB after Richardson leaves. Yes not a SEC Defence but Kitna throws well. Not as near worried as I was.
