Hell of a game by Nordin until the late miss. Huge pickup and gather by DPJ to save hidden yardage.

DPJ - great job on punt return for sure. One of the hardest jobs on the football field. 1st game against a big time program and he came thru with flying colors.

Picking up that bouncing ball was a 20+ yard swing.
You can make an argument that literally put the game away. I wouldn't agree with it, but I could see the argument for sure.
If we're pinned down, play it safe, and we have to punt...Florida has a last life from our side of the field. Instead, they never sniffed it until super late in the 4th when the game was won.

The thing is, trying to pick up a bouncing ball that came off a guy's foot isn't always easy. I was nervous watching that.

Nordin looked good, just needs to shake off the missed kicks when they happen. DPJ looked proming, except he needs to protect that damn ball.

Solid. Nice game Nordin - clean up those misses. Love how the ball just explodes off his leg. Great job Hart to drop the punt at the FL 7 in the 4th qtr.
September 2nd, 2017 at 7:16 PM ^
and Nordin had to hesitate.
He does need to improve and not miss any of those 50 yard gimmees /s

DPJ was pretty loose with the ball but he was athletic.

Nordin is awesome. I enjoyed his Wild Thing haircut.

I was worried about punt returns because Peppers was good at giving us an advantage there. DPJ is awesome. We are in good hands.
Our Kicking is really good. I can see our Kicker to do quite well once he gets some experience under pressure situation. We are in Good Hands.
Our coverage wasn't bad, but it can be shored up a little bit.
Overall, I think this is a great effort.

Nordin is a Dude. Last one he was just lined up wrong. He will be a big help for next fou years. Hard to say on punting. Coverage on kicks/punts was pretty solid. DPJ might be a pretty ecent return guy.

Nordin. WOW. He da man

Great job forcing the fumble in the 3rd quarter on the kickoff return as well
September 2nd, 2017 at 7:53 PM ^
Fielded a lot of punts that normal returners would let go and got positive yards on them.

Ahh Elmo & his monkey money videos...CFB is truly here

Youth movement. Nordin, Ambry Thomas, DPJ - great stuff in 3 different aspects. Blocked punt was obviously a problem.
Not looking at ST as a weak spot after this game.
September 2nd, 2017 at 9:33 PM ^
The arm punt coverage team could use some work.
Hopefully we won't see that unit again.

We have an amazingly powerful kicker that will only get more consistant and accurate as the season goes on. He really excites me. I can't wait to marvel at his power in person later this year:
Fielding punts and kicks will only get better with experience. It's hard to expect Peppers-like perfect decision making, but things will be solid.

against what will probably be the most athletic defense we play until OSU.
