In-Game Thread: Louisiana vs. Tulane

[cjr3888]

Once again our million dollar coach can't take criticism. I tagged him in a few tweets about the play calling/game AND............ He blocked me.

The play calling became limited after the O line stopped pass protecting, Jennings threw 2 picks and was getting his head taken off. Tulane's pass rush eliminated our passing game after the 1st quarter.

I hoped a good nights sleep could help me digest this terd we got last night but...

Ok, after I threw like 100 f-bombs into the stratosphere, the game came down to turnovers, period. That is exactly what Coach will say too.

The game did not come down to turnovers. Tulane play calling and defensive front 7 for the Cajuns bailed the team out.

And for the guy that said it was Oline issues, WRs and Jennings were not on the same page all night long. Some of it was pressure and injuries, but to completely scrap the passing game after a pick? You gotta be kidding me..

That was one of the most ridiculous football games I've ever seen. And this is NOT a compliment to anyone.

Tulane's offense looked like a high school JV squad. Let's be honest, they are terrible offensively. And we just lost to them...

Whoever the DB coach is should be fired immediately! And then out of respect to the sport of football, Hud should voluntarily pay UL back a few hundred grand

Isn't that Harbison? He and Smith have brought nothing to our defense. It seems we have digressed. Maybe he should have gone along with Smith. Absolutely pitiful coverage by our defensive backs and I use the term coverage loosely.

That's the first time in a while that I've lost sleep because I couldn't stop thinking about the game. I even couldn't stop dreaming about the game. It was different scenarios where we still lost qand I could not understand why?

There are a lot of plays and strategy to scrutinize, a lot. Like constant runs up the middle when they were giving you nothing. Leaving toolame receivers WIDE open because we were selling out in the run (you knew that was bound to happen though, but back to back 25 yard TD passes in OT? Really?) But, throwing the ball short of the boundary, in this case the goal line, in essentially 4th down situations is something I'll never understand. Riles had no shot on the conversion and it was a terrible play call.

This one will sting for a while. You had multiple, MULTIPLE opportunities to shut the door and leave with a win and you blew it. I know I'm not a player, I'm not a coach, but any Joe Shmo with a little favoritism towards the Cajuns would watch that game and wonder how the heck they didn't win?

I guarantee you he doesn't for one second think he holds any blame for that clown show.

Man I am so down right now. I too could not stop thinking about this one last night. As terrible as we played, we still should have sneaked a W out.
It's a terrible feeling:
One cause we lost, but two because we saw a glimmer of hope after the Mcneese and USA wins, and it has all come crashing down. To lose to such a terrible team like Tulane is horrible. Are we really this terrible?

Maybe the Saints can get me out of this hole Monday night, but I ain't counting my chickens, I promise you.

Let's just move on to NMSU. There's too much to analyze and be frustrated about with last night's game. I say we beat the Aggies. They have absolutely no defense, and removing the 4 OTs from last night, our D played well.

Now if we find a way to lose that one? Well...just don't lose that one. Please.

Glad we don't play Troy. Is NMSU better than Tulane?
