In-Game Thread: Louisiana vs. Texas State

[CrappDaddy]

I agree that Jennings has not run well this year. Ankle injury may have something to do with it. As far as passing goes, I was disappointed in his miss of an easy TD early in the game. However 18 of 22 is efficient even if most of the throws are short. Had he "managed" the games against Tulane and NMSU the way he did last night we may have two more wins.

Yep, we should be 5-2 right now. Not to put both losses on Jennings back, but without those interceptions we won both of those games in regulation.
As good as the defense is playing right now I could see this team winning the rest of the games -Georgia. The key will be for the offense not to screw it up.

The defense has put us in position to win all but 2 games this year. That's not gonna change. The offense is still atrocious.

Agree Mike and the interception was off of Barnes hands. He played efficiently for the most part and managed the offense.

Jennings does just that for the most part, he manages the games. He's not a game changer. We just needs to connect on the routine throws when he had time. He missed a wide open receiver for a TD and the int was not his fault, but he was efficient. His goal is to nickel and dime down the field , maybe hit one or two throws down the field and not turn the ball over. He did that well last night. Honestly, he didn't need to do much against TXST.

Side note, I forgot how fast Davis is. He's a full gear faster than a Jennings, although that's not hard to do. Glad he got to get some touches.

Enjoy these next two weeks. We won. Comfortably. That hasn't happened too often recently.

I'm thinking Jennings ankle has a lot to do with his lack of running. I watched him as LSUs QB. He can run...

They were TxSt commentators, and while they were respectful, and did use our names, their overall delivery was boring. Of course that may be because they were depressed having to find something good to say about their home team.

IOW their delivery was sub par.

---What was the deal with the down and distance? Drove us nuts with nothing or the wrong graphic---Watched at Pete's and they had a bunch of TVs at all angles and good to here cheers when the Cajuns did well and not much from the other school's TV happenings!!! lol

See what a win does?

I'm jus a little upset about that. IMO that is just being too aggressive. The problems with the offensive line is far more troubling. To still not be able to run an offensive series without a motion, or line up penalty is simply not good football at this point.

-----I guess I am more upset about the defensive off sides calls than you because it has given short yardage infractions an automatic first down, it has given long yardage infractions makable first situations, It has kept opponent's drives going, kept the defense on the field for a longer time, changed momentum by negating a stop performance by the defense, and given field position advantage to the opponent----the chances of illegal movement before the snap with a quick play style no doubt increases the potential for these infractions and hopefully the number of penalties of this sort will be cut down as the season progresses----but, as you mention, the first and 15s are driving me nuts!!!

Would Eli and Jennings use that water pool thing in the APC to help their ankles?
