Step Up and Take a Stand: Bowl Eligible or Not?

[CrappDaddy]

Yes. We will run the table minus App state.

Forfeit right to bowl as additional penalty. After getting walloped by Tech, Akron & Ark St we don't deserve to go to a bowl game.

---We get 6 wins we definitely deserve to go and a big reason is the Cajun Nation's great support in the 4 Bowls we have participated in NO----I mean --who wouldn't love us with what we have done???

For arguments sake, say we go 7-5 and head back to New Orleans. Who plans on going?

Wife and I have decided that this economy and a job that I go to everyday with the chance it might be the last day with my current company does not lend itself to us wanting to spend the extra money at Christmas.

It would be my Christmas. Been out of work since May.

It's an easy answer. If we execute our game plan and each and every play just on offense we have 1 loss and that's La Tech.

Yeah, if we executed our game plan each and every play on offense Nixon would have a 100% completion rate and we'd be in the playoffs.

It's all a hypothetical. Good teams can have a bad game or two. But EVERY game? I just don't see it. Not at all.

Are you really suggesting this team should only have one loss right now? If so, do you blame it on the coaching staff or the players?

I'm saying we should be 4-2 at the moment. Possibly 5-1 with a win over Kentucky. I would say it is about a 70 to 30 ratio coaches to players. Mostly on the offensive side of the ball and special teams.

The defense has been lights out in spurts during the season. But this isn't a simple defense in terms of the front 7. If we ran this defense last season we would have been scary good. Our back 7 is pretty good. Our front 4 needs some work, injuries have attributed to that.

Our main problem has been the O. Haack can execute more of the playbook due to his passing ability. Nixon is better on the ground. We have not found an identity on offense and we are in game 6! That is on the coaches.

Executing the game plan and making every single play is two different things. But failing to execute in routine plays has cost us at least the Kentucky game.

Akron is not a better team, stAte is not a better team. Our offense was wretched in those two games.

We have been an utter disappointment this year and that's on coaching. Not talent, the talent to win 10 games on this schedule is there.

Over 450 yds of offense isn't wretched. We left a lot of points on the field, but to say we were wretched against Ark state is a stretch.

We played against a prevent defense and backups for 3 quarters...
