If this was bad wait til we play mcneese. If we lose to mcneese I'm calling for huds head. Unsportsmanlike penalties are a lack of discipline, act like you've been there before. And browns been targeted for the last few games. And we still don't play the ball on D with the QB throwing ducks even Peyton manning said are soft. Brazil muffs the last kickoff and just walks away and gave up while another Cajun player had to run over and jump on the ball and kneel. Been saying it all year, attitude reflects leadership. Body language is terrible, and the basics of the game seem too complex for them. Unsure of assignments on defense, inability of the line to hold a block or break one on D, receivers dropping passes, and a missed field goal early and punt late hurt us.

Boom we aren't going to a bowl game this year. We will be lucky to beat Troy to go 5-7

[Geaux]

You are so right. I always seem to question what the players are doing. For example,
Not wrapping up on tackles?
Why are we in press man?
Why run a draw on 3rd and 9?
Our DB'S are never in position to play the ball?
How can some of the worst teams in the country make our teams look bad every year?

LOL!! If this team goes to a bowl game with this defense, even you will be embarrassed, Boomer!

But the REFS don't like us either, and ESPN keeps calling us Lafayette, and we have weekly distractions, and we try to strip the ball, and it rained that one game, and we have injuries, and neither QB has taken the lead, and McGuire is not 100%, and the fans let go of the rope, and did I mention that benson and the sunbelt and ESPN and the advitiser all hate us and make us play bad.

Gotta love those 'HUD'scuses.

[CajunEXPRESS]

So isn't it time to start the youngster. We need a QB with Nixon legs and Hacck's arm and football savvy. If we could combine Nixon and Haack we'ed have Gauthier.

[anhil8tor]

was it just me or did nmsu toss up more than one lofty pass that was completed to an open receiver? Even against the wind

[Cajun Soldier]

In his limited action Nixon played poorly. His poor play is not what cost us the game. Defense and special teams cost us this game.

I agree he had two bad plays that really hurt drives and other than short yardage I don't have a problem with Haack being the man. As a former QB I will say he holds on to the ball to long and makes questionable throws on third and long but if the receivers are running routes to short I guess that's all he can do. My point is we are playing some bad football it the team fault to include coaches. I mean you run a draw on third and goal from the six with Haack how about throwing the fade to Robinson and see if he can come down with it.

[Redgineer]

Enough already with the excuses. NM St played in the exact same windy conditions that we did. We're just a crappy lower level Sun Belt team that was not properly prepared and couldn't play a lick of defense. One that again handicapped ourselves by sticking with a totally ineffective two quarterback system.

If the performances of this team over the last three games hasn't been enough to open the eyes of even the biggest diehard Cajun fan, then nothing will. This coaching staff needs a major overhaul once this season ends.

Not using this as an excuse. I want to see if Hud had enough sense to consider the changes that would occur about the coming cold front and prevailing winds as the game progressed.

[California Cajun]

Everything seems out of sync this year, for whatever reason. We don't look like we have the right combination or playing, coaching, and relief from injuries. I don't think we're as bad as we have looked, although things clearly aren't right.

I think the RCAF, the facilities, and the funding is beginning to kick in. This coach has pushed our school to invest in athletics exponentially more than anyone else. We can be good a majority of the time, but not as often as we want. Yet.

If/when Hud moves on, we owe him a debt of gratitude. I also think we owe him any benefit of the doubt regarding his coaching staff, recruiting, etc., after four consecutive best years in program history.

Maybe what we're seeing is a glimpse of just how good the last four years were.

And McNeese State player Trevor Begue(not good enough for our Cajuns) beating man coverage by 3 yards for a receiving TD, running a jet sweep for a TD, and returning a 100 yard KO return for his 3rd TD of the night.
