Marshall moved the LOS on both sides of the ball the entire game. I don’t know if chandler stays healthy and we find success in the passing game would Marshall have backed off some to open up the run game. We will never know.
What I do know is the true freshman having to come in because of the loss of the 6th year senior QB is the biggest reason we lost the game.
Exactly. And obvious. Not sure why anyone would even try to argue against this.

Overly dismissive? Brother.....you want to tell us how Chandler got knocked out of the game?

I swear, it's like yall believe Fields was just ripping and running and shredding Marshall up with the passing game. From start to finish. Whistle to whistle. Marshall dominated us at the line of scrimmage. We got mauled. We had zero life, where Marshall was out there throwing hay makers for 60 mins. We were completely exposed. We couldn't tackle. But yeah, Chandler Fields was going to elevate the entire team..... at some point ....not sure when he was gonna do that. Certainly up to the point he got hurt, we were still being dominated. All these searches for excuses of how things could have been. Fields or Ben wasn't gonna put that team on their back and carry it. Let's stop that delusion. No disrespect to those guys, love them as players and people, but neither CF nor BW are world beaters. If they were, they would've already hit the portal taken NIL money from a bigger school/opportunity. Some people may not want to hear that truth, but it is what it is. Yall can make believe all these scenarios where "if this, then that" all you want. Fields ain't winning that game either. All the it's in the world ain't changing that outcome. If my aunt had balls, she'd be my uncle.

Payton Manning would have been on his back Saturday night. We did absolutely nothing impressive up front. Zero physicality. They punched us in the mouth and we didn’t respond.

This one post is going to completely derail this thread & try to make it about "crappy pseudo fans" when this school & its own fan base has been its own worst enemy for decades now.
You don't want any casual fans. You don't want bandwagon jumpers. You don't want anyone without a degree from the fatherland. You don't want outsiders. You don't want dual fans. In fact, you don't want this school, or its fan base to grow at all. Just last week over half the people who commented on this board were either luke warm, or down right hostile about Howard possibly coming here. I wonder how many of y'all would have liked to seen Walker Howard walk on that football field the other day. What a bunch of disingenuous hypocritical whiny babies.
You are an ignorant blow hard. If the program loses “fans” like you then so be it. You don’t ask questions for solutions. You present situations for you to be able to tell everyone else how they were wrong. It’s always the ultimate setup so you can talk down on little ol UL (and UL fans) and tell everyone I told you so. You’ve been an arrogant, loudmouth ass hole for 20 plus years spewing your nonsense on 1420 then ragin pagin when you wanted hud to do you favors. You are the worst type of fan and the program is better off without people like you.

It’s as if you’ve never seen a football game, which I know is not true. I can only assume you have some other reason to ignore the obvious tremendous affect losing an experienced QB has on winning a game against a good team.
Suffice to say we will never agree on this. I can only revert back to the fact we were 10-2 with the two seniors, and the two losses could have gone either way. Then we get blown out with the true freshman. But, it seems to help you to rant and rave so….proceed sir.

That was one play that ended up defining the game.
The reality was Chandler was driving for Louisiana's second score to Marshall's one.
Chandler had a guaranteed 7-6 scoreboard waiting for him.
What transpired after the unfortunate landing bears no resemblance to what Chandler was putting on the field.
An authoritive unhurt Chandler would have picked up the 4th and 2 and subsequently put Louisiana up 10-7.
Marshall could only hope to stall not stop Louisiana consistently.
Chandler Fields, different ball game.

Well there are a lot of random individuals on here who use the same old BS tactics to attack anyone they perceive as not worthy of being in their little church group. You get enough of those individuals together into a choir of divisiveness & all you ever end up with your own little church on the corner which never grows & always has the same 15 members they had 40 years ago. So it is with Cajundom. I asked a question about what could have caused this team to puke out a miserable effort like they did in such a big situation for them. I still haven't gotten any kind of an answer which any reasonable fan, or supporter who cares should want to know. Now I'm getting the SOS treatment that I'm a horrible fan & that's why the team lost. Or I'm a horrible fan & therefore have no right to know why the team stank it up. in the conference championship.
I always hear we don't want to be these guys, or those guys mostly in vitriolic jealous terms. Don't worry UL fan. With the attitude of this inner sanctum You DON"T ever ever have to worry about becoming an LSU, a Boise State, or any other consistently successful program. You can rest assured that you will always have your ever dying fan base of 5000 from here until you're all in the grave & no one will take your spot from you. Are you happy now UL fan? You've solved your problems. Congrats
