Alabama 37, South Carolina 14

The Negatives:
-Dropped balls. Hee. Seriously though, Prothro had some drops against MTSU but then it looked like we had gotten over that last week. Those receivers are too good to play that poorly.
-Still not pleased with the special teams on kick returns. The Cocks got off a couple of good returns, and even if they didn't do them any good those kinds of things are going to hurt us in the long run.

The Positives:
-Just about every damn thing. The benefit of game tape was readily apparent. Kines broke it off in Spurrier's offense and we even survived the quick flash of Spurrier trickery at the start of the 3rd quarter.
-Brodie is still walking after taking off on several runs. Thankfully he's learned to slide.
-What did Prothro average, 29.5 ypc? Hell. Yes.
-I counted six different players running the ball out of the backfield for big gains. Losing Darby next year will suck, but not that much.
-Wilson also looked good at mop up. I still want Croyle healthy, but if he goes out with injury we should be better off than last year and we know the QB situation for next season is looking good.

Yeah, I was pretty much dogcussing every receiver of ours that dropped a pass that hit 'em in the hands. Frustrating as all get out.

UPDATE: I forgot about one of Prothro's carries, and his YPC is more like 22. Still...awesome.
