Special Teams have to improve leaps and bounds.

Obviously missing 4 extra points is huge, but the kick coverage team and the lone punt also left lots to be desired. All you need to look at to see the importance of Special Teams is the next opponent. Both of Belfry's last losses to Pikeville were a direct result of Pikeville making every point count.

Hopefully Mounts will be back soon, that would be a tragic loss for this defense.

All in all solid showing. Lots to work on as expected for a season debut without scrimmages.

Have to clean up the timing and execution. That penalty inside the Pulaski redzone also showed how important the small things are.

Belfry also got fortunate a few times. The Maroons dropped a sure TD and also dropped what should have been a key 4th Down conversion.

As for Mr. Dixon... all you can say is "bravo!" Kid is a bonafide superstar. Also thought the line got the job done. Brad Lowe is a monster, hopefully he also can avoid the injury bug because he is poised for a breakout season. Coleman did a very good job running the option.
