Cole Cubelic is back with his SEC takeaways!
The SEC Network analyst’s thoughts on every team in action have become a Sunday staple on social media. This week, however, Cubelic ran into a technical difficulty, forcing the delay to Monday. Last week’s takeaways also arrived on Monday thanks to Sunday action on Labor Day Weekend.

Will try to re type in morning…
Cubelic overcame the technical delay and shared his thoughts on all 16 conference squads in Week 2. Here’s what he had to say:
ARKANSAS: Handled their business. QB made plays. He's dynamic. Took check downs. Hitting balls downfield. Still needs to let a few plays go here & there. Found ways to run the ball. OL took steps. 4 can get it. 0 adds different dimension. 9 looks great at WR. 10 was flying around…

FLORIDA: Tough one. Offense just lacked consistency. The film honestly wasn't near as bad as I expected. Close on a lot of things. I realize that's not going to be popular. Runs had a chance more times than not. Can't have to one singular let down that leads to TFL's. Some play…

KENTUCKY: Tough one. Had chances. Liked how they stuck with run game. Mixing in lead blockers on perimeter. 3 was great there & carrying the ball. TEs helped up front. QB just inconsistent. OL is finding its way. Still a few misses. Not built for straight drop back for extended…

MISSISSIPPI STATE: Huge win. Signature for the HC. Felt like they brought it on both lines of scrimmage. Edges set tone early on defense. Great job impacted the pocket & passer. Jumped gaps some vs run. Still had effort throughout though. 40 played downhill. 6 good off edge.…

OKLAHOMA: Massive win. Went out & took it. Defense stayed aggressive. Kept moving up front. Had consistent penetration. 65, 0 & 52 all came to play. 10 played fast, active. 38 like a demolition car. Wreaked havoc. 32 off edge good. They altered the timing of that run game. One…

SOUTH CAROLINA: Handled their business. Love the formations on offense to try & help run game. Attaching/detatching TE's. 44 in at FB. Options. Taking care of the ball will be important with adding some of that. Got good effort from 72 up front. 87 is just a big help in many…

TEXAS: Handled their business. Started slow but poured it on. QB confidence grew as game went on. He will settle in. 13 got schemed open & made them pay. 88 had a few timely grabs. 1 had chances. Struggling to find explosives in run game. Need a little more strain form OL there.…

VANDERBILT: Huge win to get to 2-0. Gusty comeback with a team not really built for that. Ran the ball extremely well. RB & QB have to take care of ball. Overcame it. 22 gave them good reps at RB. 28 still going to be great for them. 2 looks better throwing the ball. Especially…
