It was good to see AJ truly be the beast today. He missed a tackle or two, but he was flying all over the field and was playing nasty. IMO, he's finally becoming a leader and will continue to help this defense grow for the remainder of the year.

Agree. Randolph looked pretty good also. We definitely have a talent gap compared to the top SEC teams. Can't wait for when the next class gets here.

I wonder how many of our current players would start for FL, GA, Bama, SC, LSU, or TA&M?

AJ has played out of position and has taken bad angles every game this year. He's also tried to spear players to the ground too much for my liking.

He's been a major disappointment for me so far this year. Hopefully he doesn't lose himself more money and continue along the same lines.

Brewer looked good today too. It was real satisfying to see A.J. come out of nowhere and throw that Gator player down with some energy. Sapp played good in coverage and had several batted down passes. Randolph is one of our best players but I thought he took some bad angles today.

Johnson and Randolph are our two leaders on defense Imo. Both play with intensity. Sapp and Brewer at lb are also playing very well.

I thought Worley threw the ball a little better tonight but still missed some big ones. Hopefully he can get better and our receivers can stop dropping balls. Josh Smith is not getting it done. Big Croomster looked better and Pig is our best WR. North is getting there.

Both He and Richardson are good but not NFL ready... This will be mutually beneficial to both of them and UT

I think its a bit of a blessing in disguise. Hopefully both with come back next year! Another year with good coaches could really help them!

IMO, they still go for the $$, but now that they have coaches they love playing for, they jus might stay. They would be loved by the fans, that's for sure. Can you imagine AJ being the senior leader of the defense? He could be something this team hasn't had in a long time.

He looked like a lion among gazelles out there. I love the way he tackles.

I wish this was true. I'm sure he looks decent versus the rest of our D and at the MLB position, he's supposed to make tackles.

He has the talent. I just not sure he has the head.

AJ doesn't fly any where,lol and if he tackled better instead of always diving on downed ball carriers he would have better stats

I think cam Sutton should also get a consideration also. he is playing extremely well to be a freshman and could be deadly in a year or 2.
