McNeese Week 2016

[mxpxfr690]

Mcneese will kill this team.

This will be a knock down drag out in the first half, but with the talent we have the running game will take over and extend a lead to pull away for the victory!

Your assuming that our o-line will take control in the 2nd half. From what I saw yesterday, it will be an uphill battle the entire game. Our o-line was the worst that I have seen in a long time.

Personally, I think AJ played a hell of a game and he made plays. No fault to his ability but just think if Haack was our starting QB yesterday. My point is, as ugly as it was, without Jennings ability to get out of the pocket and make plays, it would have been a lot worse.

McNeese is not the most important game. That is just ridiculous. Losing to mcneese would be a low point and another nail, in the career of Hud.

Hard to block when all you throw is screen passes or a 150 lb back up the middle .. HORRIBLE PLAY CALLING

McNeese is not the most important game. That is just ridiculous. Losing to mcneese would be a low point and another nail, in the career of Hud.

I think of it as the loss making it "important". The win means absolutely nothing. The loss will be devastating. And right now... unless our athletes have enough pride to fight off a better coached FCS program... we are not going to win that game. Will our pure athletes overcome a staff of incompetent coaches and just out-athlete McNeese?

Our athletes are going to hear the dumbest stuff ever this week. Our staff is going to double down on telling them that their poor execution of a clown show scheme did them in against Boise State. Our staff is going to try and pick up our athletes by telling them this week's work on the fundamentals they're teaching are essential. Our athletes will need to weed through that senseless muck and hope that they can out run, out jump, and out wrestle their opponents from here on out. Because at the end of a Hud day, you're no better or smarter than you were coming out of high school. You just have to hope, if you actually enjoy winning, that the friends you make on the UL football team are good athletes. Together, you will have to overcome coaching you thought was supposed to help you. Nope. You are only as good in UL football helmets as your athletic ability is. Good luck to our football athletes.

Agreed, no one touched on the blocking by our WRs on the WR screens. We just need to throw that play out of the playbook. Ive seen better WR blocking in peewee football.

Now, Now, we didn't just run this play. We also unveiled the QB draw on 2nd and 25 and we also had the bubble screen that we can run all game it seems. Lots of variation there.

It's hard to run a bubble screen where the WR don't block.

Jennings could have played worse, but he was missing wide open reads pretty consistently. If we are ever to be good on offense he'll have to start pulling the trigger on those passes.
I though Jordan wright looked like a hard runner and he needs to touch the ball a minimum of 10 times against Mcneese. I think he's better up the middle than eli.

Defensively, no one looked impressive to me except Otha Peters and Demarren Mitchell. Granted I did not watch the 2nd half. Rebuilding my flooded house became my priority again after I saw we were completely outmatched.
I think we can get better offensively, but my god that D line has got to improve.

A lose to McNeese will set this program back to the dark ages. A huge part of the fan base is struggling financially, and our leadership thinks the best thing to do is keep everyone in the dark. If you top that off with a lose to McNeese a lot of people aren't going to say a word they are just going to walk away.

I've already cut back considerable because of the first two issues. Basketball went to the wayside sometime back. Gave up my football season tickets this year. Lose to McNeese and I'll be pretty much done with most of UL athletics until I see some major changes to the overall program. I'm not going to keep investing money, time, and emotions into this leaky toilet.

I'll continue to support baseball & softball like I have for 30+ years who know how to do great things with little to no support but I'm not going to do much more than take a glance at the nightly news for what else is going on with UL athletics.

[CajunEXPRESS]

I hope Hud understands that next Saturday will be the most important game of his coaching career. He better have the team ready.

McNeese is never the most important game of the year, unless you consider them a rival. Maybe it is, maybe we should ask for reinstatement into the SLC.

[ULvictory]

McNeese is an important game for one reason and only one reason: it'll tell us what changes need to be made if we lose. With the money that we have poured into the football program over the past 5 years, the words "losing" and "McNeese" should N-E-V-E-R be in the same sentence; especially against a school with 1/4 of our athletic budget.
