SEC Champions

Initial thoughts from the SEC Championship Game:

• Greg McElroy played an incredible game. This was the type of poise and decision-making I was hoping for from him this season. Great job of hanging in the pocket and making precision passes.
• Mark Ingram had great TD runs and had a good bounce-back game from last week. 
• What about the offensive line? These guys made all Tide fans forget about last year's group. What a performance. Vlachos' block of Spikes in the first quarter on a sweep or toss helped set the tone for evening. The O-line played their best game of the year.
  
• The defense was outstanding. The pressure was there from the D-line and linebackers and the secondary held strong. Good pick by Arenas; Woodall should've had one too. Erik Anders did a great job of shadowing Gonzalez and Ro was awesome watching Tebow.
• Cody's presence in the middle kept Florida from attempting to run. That Florida didn't have many rushing attempts was huge. 
• The coaching staff had a great offensive and defensive game plan. The players executed it to near perfection.
• I thought Saban might get wet with a Gatorade bath, but the players may have decided to save that for Pasadena.
• My TV messed up right after Florida scored to make it 12-10 and I thought the game was going to start messing up as well. Neither the tide nor the Tide turned and I was able to get CBS back. 
• Roll Tide!
