Freak's summary
>Offensively it was probably our best performance, especially upfront.
>One of the biggest plays in the game was the interception.
>Defensively with the exception of one coverage and a couple of times on third down, we did a pretty good job. We had a couple of chances to finish on the quarterback and didn't.
>Our guys played with effort for four quarters. There's probably six or seven plays that were the difference in the game and we need to be on the other side of those.
>We played much better offensively against Auburn than we did against Missouri.
>Vanderbilt is spreading the ball around, playing fast. They have good playmakers on the outside. They played good against Florida and had a chance against Mississippi State a couple weeks ago.
>On Greg Emerson, he had a bad injury coming out of high school. He aggravated that same injury and is probably day to day.
>On Eric Gray, our running backs compete every week. Saturday was probably his best game. Ty Chandler played well also.
>On the interception, That was an RPO and we were late throwing the football. JG made a mistake and he knows we can't do that.
>The team did not practice yesterday. Still waiting on covid results as a precaution. There's been a trend of teams who travel having COVID issues.
>On the safeties, McCollough and Flowers have played good ball for us.
>On running backs ran the ball well but felt like we didn't protect as well as we needed to.
>Jarrett made a lot of good checks and got us into some good plays. There were 3-4 plays in the game that needed to be better. It's something he understands and it's something that can happen. You can't throw the ball to the other team anytime. You can't have unforced errors.
>We've tried to keep it simple this year because we've had guys in and out of practice. We've tried to rely on simplicity to make the other team beat us and give more guys the opportunity to play.
>On Bailey, liked his presence and he's been pretty calm. He stepped in and made 2-3 really good throws and took what the defense gave him.
>On secondary/LBs pre-snap, There are lots of things that need to go through every defensive players mind before every snap. The best teams I've been around have players that play the plays.
>We have good leadership. Our guys continue to work hard.
>On guys faking injuries to slow the offense, we don't coach that here.
>Warren Burrell has played really well the last two weeks. He played really well early on as a freshman but we got some guys back and he didn't play as much. We thought we might move him to safety and we did for one day. Then he missed several weeks of practice and came back right before the South Carolina game.
>MSU played against UGA with 49 players, would you do that? -- First and foremost you have to look at the safety of the players. After that each situation is probably unique. That's probably the first time this year actual available numbers for a team have been released.
>Not aware of any injury to Tyler Baron.
>We only gave up three explosive plays, but we didn't get off the field on third down, and one of those explosive plays resulted in a touchdown. We didn't create enough explosive plays in the throw game.
/the end.
