Houston's QB jumped towards end zone and the ball got knocked away about foot from goal line and knocked into end zone for touch back and sealing their fate with 24 seconds left down by 4
So, let me get this straight? There's a NEWS article about the Cajuns concerning the QB & the million dollar coach. People post comments on said NEWS article which was printed in the local fish wrap. And people who don't mind blasting defenseless high school teams come on here to deflect attention from said million dollar coach & 24 year old senior QB by trying to high jack thread which people based very reasonable comments & opinions referring to said NEWS article on? What the crap kind of overly sensitive censorship is that. If you were slamming a bunch of tenth graders it would be game on for you guys. But veteran college players & seven figure coaches need deflection from honest & reasonable opinions whether you agree or not? WOW!
Lol. Come on coach. He looks good in practice because our defense sucks!!!! My 7 year old would look good against them
Yes, I like most here are not falling for the sunshine pumpers. We all have seen what lofty, non fact based expectations bring us. I hope to God we win, but as I said in earlier posts, Aubuckle is a descent QB who loves to throw. We cant defend anyone in pass defense. I see this game as a shoot out for first half with Broadway throwing 3 picks and our run game stuffed once they realize we cant pass. And before everyone jumps on me, Just realize that that I like the rest of Cajun Nation are still loyal. We just took our Vermilion colored glasses off . Until OUR team proves it different, we are a train wreck waiting to crash again. Sad part is we have no chance against better competition this season as we have screwed the pooch all ready. We are fighting for the cellar dweller role in our weak azz conference. This game is huge.
This game is huge. The country isn't watching with bated breath. But, this game is big for Cajun fans. It isn't big for the bandwagon fan. But I guarantee you it is HUGE for the diehard fans (unless you are nothing more than an emotional diehard - in which case I pity you - that has to suck). It is huge in terms of coaching staff execution.
I cannot wait to observe how we manage this game.
Personally if rather see an offense more like Baylor or A&M. Before you go on saying that we have stud running backs, Baylor has a dynamic passing game but they also led the Big 12 in rushing the past two years.
Both teams exploit spacing and play design to create lanes for passing and running. In order for them to be successful you need a QB who can make accurate downfield throws.
I guess some of yall just like to see us pound it on the ground with a few plays over 20 yards like we have seen so far this year.
I doubt the people you're referring to prefer us to do anything but win. Many have this unrealistic football sense that the running game is separate from the passing game. Reading statistics is the absolute worst educational component of understanding football. Without the detailed information, statistics are meaningless.
We have hit a peak of what physical conditioning and hype will yield. At this point, UL coaching is being tested in the football chess match. And if we are going to succeed, the opponent cannot know that Eli and Zo are our only two formidable offensive threats. If our QB cannot include the other 3 to 5 skill players on the field, including himself, our coaches are a complete failure.
The dumbest thing a coach can do is pound the ball at an inferior opponent... succeed... and believe that what he saw was "they finally executed the way they were coached". If he has a look of exasperation at the end of the next contest... against a better opponent... and says, "we just didn't execute tonight"... he is not a very intelligent coach.
I'm looking at this next game as a test of only our coaches. I know what our players abilities are.
Yes. Baylo's O-Line does not block long but you have to be able to throw to the "open" receiver, not only to one receiver. I felt that was our offense with Blaine. He threw to the open receiver. Broadway stares down one guy and defenses load the box against the run. Broadway is the problem.
