Re: Live Game Talk: Louisiana vs. Old Dominion University
This loss was not on the offense, but the win was squarely on their shoulders for the taking.
Bustle lost a game by rushing 4 straight plays at the goal line.
Four straight passing plays is no better.
When you out think yourself by adopting the thought process of <i>surely they will be expecting us to do something else so lets do the same things again, again, again</i> you've dug yourself a hole.
There is a chance it could have worked, but why not mix it up and make the opponent think for real.

A better throw and Jackson walks into the endzone.

This. I’m not sure how someone could watch last night’s game and think that QB was even in our top 5 problems.
Re: Live Game Talk: Louisiana vs. Old Dominion University
Defense was atrocious. We will see this type of offense one more time this year. TxSt runs something very similar.
On offense we got Pete Carroll’d at the goal line. WTF were we thinking. Two RBs, that were having great games, over 220 pound bowling balls and they don’t touch the ball.
Re: Live Game Talk: Louisiana vs. Old Dominion University
We were asking a right-handed quarterback--who seemed to be favoring his surgically reconstructed knee--to roll left. You would think a kid with that kind of arm talent would not mess that throw up, but it happens. Who called 4 straight pass plays when he knows his receiving corps is inexperienced in money situations? Why was his quarterback running for his life on the money drive? Was it because QB1 lacks confidence in his receivers and his offensive line? Was it because QB1 lacked confidence in the play-caller? Who knows?
All I know is you have to put your kids in a position to be successful, and this coaching staff has not done that.

Exactly everyone _____ing about the QB. Last night was one of the better offensive performances by the new staff. Defensively it was one of the worst
Re: Live Game Talk: Louisiana vs. Old Dominion University
Very much agreed, at the bare minimum they should have run the ball on 1st and goal.
I would have loved des to bring in zeon Chriss on one of those goal line plays to make them defend the qb and maybe leave a receiver open

The game is to fast for our coaching staff to think that quick.
Re: Live Game Talk: Louisiana vs. Old Dominion University
Also a few things I don't understand about last night. Why bring in Bill Davis if you planned on only giving him 2 carries (which he looked pretty good on)? Also Harvey Broussard looked incredible in the first half but doesn't get a single target in the second half

…..couldn’t tell……was the ball tipped by a defender?
