GameTalk: Louisiana vs GAST

[ManAboutTown]

Haack did an excellent job "managing the game." That is not a slight at him. He did exactly what he needed to do. He was efficient even though our receivers didn't really help him out with many yards after the catch.

But, how about the turn around of the special teams? They have essentially won us 2 in a row. Who saw that coming? Also, hats off to the defense. The coverage was, um.....not great. That was to be expected though. They played well when they needed to and only gave up 21 points to a type of offense that usually carves us up.

Coaching, officiating and the offense we'll save for another day. Let's enjoy this.

Haack is "managing the game" because that's what he being told to do. If this staff would open up the playbook and give him a longer leash, we could see some fireworks.

Clearly Hud lacks confidence in Haack,receivers, line, or all three.

All three

The short passing game tells me 'Line.'

Kind of like this??? Teche north side of da berry. The object in the water is a deck.

You got it!

I didn't get to see the game and despite what is has been documentated here, I am going to watch it.

'Disinterested observer,'.....your biggest lie to date. And that's saying a LOT. 'Disinterested????' Is that why you are on our site site every day? And on the SBC site everyday?? You hate all things UL and have scurried off without answering some very basic questions. Because you are a lying POS.

You have proven many times over how much of a lying POS you are, and how much you hate all things UL.
Tell us again how ULM 'outplayed' us for '3 quarters' ????? You are such an astute student of the game, LOL.
And there were a bunch of other questions you twirled out us on.....why did you not answer the questions, you chicken ____ embecille.

You sure do have a hate boner for that guy, huh? Take the high road brother

I recall in the first game hearing that McGuire gained 15 lbs and then noticing in that first game and every game since that he does not have the cut moves or burst that he once had. I don't know if it's his age and natural weight gain or if coaches purposely bulked him up to replace harris. Now after so many games of seeing hud trying to use him like harris up the middle, I think I figured it out. they messed with a good thing and screwed up a great back by trying to force him to be what they want verses where his value lies.

Nah. Players don't typically regress like that. Especially RBs.

Our O line ain't what it was a year ago. Plain and simple. A RB is only as good as the guys who are blocking for him.

I watched Arbuckle and he stared down every receiver... including every one of the ones he completed passes to. This nonsense about "staring down the receiver"... in college football... is a joke. Go back and watch the replay. Arbuckle stared down every player he hit... and so do most of the successful QBs in college football.

The difference is with our DBs and scheme you could stare me down on my route and this old guy would get open and catch your pass other defenses don't allow us to do this thus incomplete passes. We have no second options we might as well run one receiver routes.

I don't like our route tree or play calling at all, but 72% completion rate is pretty good. I would have thrown it another 15 times or so.
