    I'm sorry how about 27-0 nothing and 36-7... You feel better now? A lot easier to put up numbers if you know you aren't coming out

    If not for a few dropped passes and a fumble by our WR group, Haack would have been given credit for the first SEC victory by this school in his second start.

    I would add awfully conservative play calling with the ball and a chance to win the game with less than 6 minutes left. Same thing that cost us the game the last time we had an SEC team on the ropes..

    I firmly believe Haack could have sliced and diced Texas State's defense. I firmly believe ET in the basket of a child's bike could have sliced and diced Texas State's defense. I firmly believe an overweight man in full Knight's armor could have sliced and diced Texas State's defense.

    Nixon did his job with his feet very well and almost offset his arm skills.

    My worry is that his fontal prowess come at the expense of NFL caliber running back who at least temporarily has been turned into a more than adequate receiver, who in turn is removing the incentive for true receivers to be ready on every play.

    Going forward, if we are intent on keeping Nixon as the QB, it should be completely obvious to everybody what needs to be done here.

    I see Nixon and McGuire. They sure look a lot like Desmo and Fenroy.

    Quit trying to impose your will coach Hud, and bring back the Mighty Ragin Cajun Steamrolling Zone Option Freak Show.

    If Nixon was as good as Des I wouldn't complain about him.

    If Haack was the starter from game 1, we would 3-3 at minimum. The QB swapping probably cost the team a W. Haack didnt do anything that he deserved to be benched for.

    You are 100% probably right!

    I think he would have been 3-3 knowing full well that they never called his game.

    If they had designed the offense around him, the team very well could be 4-2

    Is that a Yogeism?

    I'm hearing a lot of talk about our lack of talent at the receiver position.
    Perhaps some of the guys UL passed on or the guys UL insulted by asking them to be prefered walk ons could've helped our QB, instead of taking their talents elsewhere.

    Scheme, we have talent. They just don't fit the scheme.
