Thread: 2014 Louisiana (20) vs La. Tech (48)

  1. UL Football Louisiana was flat without playmakers McGuire, Robinson

    The Cajuns offense fell noticeably flat in Saturday’s 48-20 loss to Louisiana Tech without explosive playmakers like sophomore running back Elijah McGuire and Jamal Robinson in the game.

    Robinson exited after a 12-yard catch in the second quarter. McGuire didn’t leave until early in the second half, but coach Mark Hudspeth said he hurt himself on one of the first couple of plays of the game.

  2. Default Pass protection failings disturb Ragin' Cajuns offensive line

    Senior center Terry Johnson was surprised when he didn’t see a big, fat ‘D’ attached to his name after coaches graded out the film from the University of Louisiana at Lafayette’s 48-20 loss to Louisiana Tech last week.

    Johnson’s individual performance graded out better than he expected, but he still felt like he failed in Saturday’s game thanks to the offensive line’s difficulties.

    Uhh, we were flat even with them in there.

    Offense didn't even pretend to throw down field after Jamal got hurt. James Butler was apparently wearing an invisibility cloak.

    What I am saying is that the offense is of more concern than the defense. We have not had a great offensive performance in close to two years.
    You are saying that 6 plays cost us the game. This is crap. We got throttled in every way and they looked like the better team...Period. There is no guarantee, however, that if you remove those 6 plays you refer to that we would have fared any better after them anyhow and when comparing the way the two teams executed, I would argue that La Tech still would have made more plays anyhow.

    I'm not saying that we can't be making these plays in about 4-5 weeks from now as we tend to be slow starters anyhow but we were not the better or more talented team this past Saturday.

    They came to play. We were not expecting to get punched in the mouth. We recovered briefly but big plays KO'd us.
    I would agree with this but also add that they controlled the line of scrimmage on both sides of the ball ALL game. Again, this was not a momentum issue or series of big plays that went wrong, this was a domination by one team over the other.

    And there is absolutely no reason to believe that they couldn't have turned that 99 yard drive into a 16 play drive that still culminated in a touchdown either. We can't take away plays. The bottomline is that we answered that score so I don't think there was really any momentum shift whatsoever.

    Offense didn't pretend to throw it downfield before he got hurt either. I think he had the longest reception of the day when the game was actually in doubt and that was the 17 yarder that he got hurt on because he was trying to make a play. I don't think the pass was more than about 10 yards there and he stretched it out a bit. We did nothing to try to use our height advantage. When Jarad Johnson was in the game, 1-1 with a small DB, we used him as a blocker and didn't even try to go his way.

    Some of you may have noticed me. I was the one in section D-2 screaming at the pressbox in the first half to throw the ball downfield.

    I can only assume Broadway's arm was hurt. Otherwise, that was the worst offensive gameplanning I've seen in quite a while.
