My admittedly amateurish analysis:
Pros:
1) Landry Jones - fantastic game. Not perfect but pretty close. That pick-6 would've put him in a funk even earlier this year.
2) I guess we can win away from Norman. :D
3) Oh Cameron Kenney. Why couldn't you have played like an all-american all year?
4) Ryan Broyles catches anything within reach. I sure hope he comes back next year (for obviously selfish reasons). If he doesn't, good luck in the NFL and thanks for the memories.
5) Only 1 penalty for 3 yards? Compare that to last year's OL that couldn't get through a series without a hold/false start. Very impressive improvement. Yes, I know other stuff could've been called but that's true every game.
6) Our freshman class is remarkable.
7) Solid rookie outing by Heupel. For the most part, he mixed it up pretty well.
8) Two pick-6's? Greatness. And we could've had one more.
Cons:
1) Pass rush? It's a good thing their passing game isn't worth much because Frazer had a ton of time to throw.
2) Red zone problems continue although maybe not as severe as in some games this season.
3) Running game still fairly anemic. Not sure why this continues to be a problem but I hope we can get it fixed before next season.
4) Special teams. Ugh. We are giving up a bunch of TD's on kickoffs and rarely get one of our own. I thought we had corrected this in 2009 after a bad 2008. I guess not.
It was a fun game to watch. Now comes the long 9 month wait. :(
