Don't buy into the ESPN hype machine. This Seminole team is not as potential without Dalvin Cook. They seemingly didn't have his replacement figured out yet, albeit Alabama is tough to determine your RB 1 against.
The offense looked good in the two minute drill, particularly throwing to the TE over the middle. Perhaps Jimbo believed his talent was as good or better than his former employer, but Nick out-schemed him at every turn (special teams blocks, zone coverage on the two late INTs). Francois has been a tackling dummy since last year's opener. Should have gotten him out of the game after the second pick.
You don't have turnovers they had vs Bama and win. It's a credit to their defense they held Bama to 24. Bama isn't offensively as potent as last year it seems. Line didn't open the gaping holes they usually did. Bo looks timid coming off the leg injury. Hurts focused on Ridley way too much. They just play so strong in the other facets, it may not matter.
