My takeaways
I know everyone is going to have their own thoughts, feel free to add them here.

The good:
-I know Austin Peay is terrible but it was nice to see the team take care of business, start to finish.

-The defense never seemed to relent and kept up the pressure. Seems to be back to where they were before being eliminated from bowl contention last year. Hopefully Bobby McCain will be making plays all year.

-Jarvis Cooper. Was waiting to see him and he didn't disappoint. I know it was garbage time against AP and he fumbled, but watching him run confirmed what many of us hoped. He looks to be the most talented back already, in my opinion. Don't want to make too much of it but I'm excited for his career. The run game looked great in general, including Paxton.

-Passing game looks to be a bit better than last year.

-New punter looks to be pretty good. Should have another nice year from the special teams. Would like to see more Craig and less Malone in the return game.

The bad:
-Fumbles, fumbles, fumbles. Seemed like everyone was putting the ball on the ground. We got all the bounces and AP isn't nearly good enough to make us pay even if they did recover. Most of our future opponents are. Hopefully just the rain and we get a drought from here on out.

-Passing game. Seemed like the passing game has taken a small step forward but I saw a lot of the same flaws as last year. Would have liked to see more open wrs. We really need more athletic wrs.

-Ifedi. Please don't be seriously hurt.

Hard to really know what to take from this game but these are my thoughts. Enjoyed watching us beat down an opponent, even if they're terrible. I'm excited for the season and think we go bowling. Go Tigers!
