2018 FB G4: Louisiana 14 Alabama 56

[CrazyCajun]

Alabama doesn’t have a scout team full of 5 stars. There are only about 30 or so 5 star players in every recruiting class

Goal Line has us as UL in their ticker. I don’t get the espn networks.

fox had louisiana the whole time, but then seemed rather disparaging in highlights, (didnt show ours) and wrote out the full louisiana-lafayette, type was tiny.

and didnt know this still existed, but raycom had us as lafayette

To say this after 4 games shows just how little you know about football, and probably most other things..

I know, you're a "just wait until next year" guy.

to those who are all hurt by the first half results. Alabama has done this to everyone this year so far, including Ole miss 49-7 at the half, and Ark State 40-0 at the half. it does not tell us anything about the level of talent we have right now or the coaching ability other than Alabama is truly #1. too many trying to use this game as some measuring stick of where our program is, or how many games we will win. as some has said our 2nd half out performed both ole miss who was outscored 13-0 and Ark state who was outscored 17-7, and they also faced Alabama 3rd, 4th, 5th, or scout teams, whatever yall want to call them. so maybe more people should feel better about our talent and coaching than suggesting our player are fcs level based on watching them against the #1 team in country.

its now time to start the part of the schedule that will tell us who we are as a team for this year. CCU game hurt us, but unfortunately that stuff happens early in a process of change.

I generally agree, however.... I think you can evaluate the performance of Trey Ragas and obviously conclude he can compete at the SEC level.

It sucks, but that's just a fact. Napier needs more time to inject new players. Nobody likes waiting.

Not every 5-star is a starter (see talent graveyard)

Still that is enough to have a scout team of 4 and 5 star players with the emphasis on 5.

[SlickRick]

And how close we are to the bottom.

Pretty close, but not due to coaching. Due to too man years of HUD. If he would have got his "big" job after his 2nd or third year, we'd have better talent to work with. Its going to take 3 years minimum to turn this program around. That's just where we are.

They do not have a scout team full
of 4 and 5 stars.

Fair and balanced post...good one

[CajunVic]

Ok. But we were playing against their 3rd string.

Don't fool yourself, we would play virtually EVERY member of their 3rd team as starters on our team if we had them - every damn one of them on defense for sure.
