The “not run away” part is a complete failure if the ball is not caught, every time.

I know, jeez. I was being a smart ___....figured that was obvious.

Seems like the catching part is an integral component of what he was coached to do....(there I go again)

Again, I’m glad he got it straight in the second half. We need him.

I just rewatched the game. These guys get better as the game goes on. We still had great energy in the second half and wore the Eagles down big time. Much like we did for Liberty and Ohio. I remember when the HUD teams were struggling, a lot of comments would be made about lack of halftime adjustments. This Napier squad certainly doesn’t have that issue.

Not really. Of course he's coached to catch it but players don't always execute.

Yeah the play calling is at least twice as good as from the Hud era.

I saw a lot of new players in the game too; they keep getting the younger players some reps, keeping the 1's fresh and getting them some game experience that will pay off down the road.

That shows we are getting the depth we need on our roster to play big boy ball.

GEAUX CAJUNS!

Yes, the adjustments, and especially the athleticism, in the 2nd half are to me two of the biggest improvements over last/past years. Makes all the difference and shows how successful Napier & co are.
