Final: Louisiana (24) vs. OSU (65)

[The Source]

The whole game kinda reminded me of the first Troy drive last week---Very quick and great play calling!! We couldn't stop Troy or come close on that drive and ------well you know what I mean!!!

It kind of reminded me of a Jr. High team playing an NFL team. We looked unprepared, lost, and out coached. I think saying we looked like ____ would be unfair to ____.

Yep and the worst part was the Defense played like they gave up by halftime. Poor tackling and huge holes for their RB and QB to run through. I don't care if we didn't have Hamilton. Not forcing them to punt once is pathetic and needs to be fixed. There's so much talent on this Defense, but they showed tonight that they are still getting used to playing together. They better clean up those mistakes fast. We have some big games coming up.

I think they did punt once in the second half, however I was loaded by then so I could be wrong.

Please...dont give me that. If Monroe can compete with these teams then we should too. We didn't show up and we got flat out embarrassed. We could've played much better and kept this game competitive but we didn't. We dont need 2-3 more years of recruiting, we need these guys to step up to the challenge. They didn't today and it showed. On the bright side we know this team is capable of playing much better and I for one think they will for the rest of the season. Consider this a wake up call. FIU will have no idea what they're getting into on the 29th.

In fairness, that Okie St. offense would score at will on Arkansas and Auburn too.

Part of the problem yesterday was that Okie suffered a bad loss last week. That fact, coupled with the ulm upset, made it near impossible that okie would go to sleep on us.

Our biggest problem is that Blaine isn't the player he was in December. YET. IDK how much the ribs affected his play.

Kolton Browning is a Manimal.

His syle of play increases the chance of injury. He will not be as effective all season long.

[CrazyCajun]

Our defense has also played 198 snaps in 2 games, that's technically 3 games in 7 days. We need this bye badly. They came out flat, look tired.

Yes there was a lot going against us but the fact that we weren't even competitive is what ____ed me off. Keep in mind Okie state put up these points with their backup QB. Our defense did not step up. And there are no excuses for the way our offense played. We couldn't move the ball for most of the game. And it's not like their defense is great or anything. Blaine was very disappointing. He was wildly inaccurate. I hope it was because of his ribs were hurting because I would be very worried if he just had a bad game like that for no reason. This was hopefully the wakeup call the team needed.

I havent watched him closely but doesn't he have a similar style of play than Blaine? Serious question.

UL did well with a backup QB vs Troy. Why?

Troy didn't game plan for his exact type of play.

OSU did VERY well with a backup QB. Why?

UL didn't game plan for his exact type of play.

quit making excuses, Broadway has been hitting his receivers and flat out playing better football than Gautier. Gautier needs to step it up before Broadway steals the starting position from him. Gautier has been over throwing his receivers way too often and his timing is way off. This bye week should allow him to get back to the fundamentals and be back on track vs. FIU....I hope so atleast.

[CAJUNTODD44]

Agreed...........

[318_Cajun]

It seems to me that Gautier has become way to comfortable at the starting QB position. I know he pretty much re-wrote the team records book last year but right know it looks like Broadway want's it more. Broadway is way more in sync with the offense and hopefully Gautier will feel the heat from Broadway and become that elite QB that we know he can be.

I'm not making excuses for Gautier's lack of touch on the ball.

I'm the one with the theory quarterbacks should not do upper body weights after June.

Passing is a muscle memory exercise.

What I am saying is, that if you think coaches call the exact same plays for any QB on the field, then everthing will look like an excuse.
