2019-20 MBB: SBC Championship, Louisiana 38, App. State 45

Zyon played today.. hurt mind ya. A healthy Zyon is a game changer but he cant stay healthy..We need better line backer play in general. Our DB's are converted players.. Hell, we have 3 missing from our offensive line basically all year. This staff has worked miracles plugging in players out of need and we are not at full scholarship yet. This recruiting class coming up will push us over ht edge. Your border line crazy my man about Roberts. He is a really good D coach. Our problem is personnel, and lack of players. We have been giving walk on's Schollys like candy just to fill the roster. Probation reduction in schollys has hurt us more than anything else.

He employs bend but don’t break, but that can go bad...when you have personnel Issues. I 100% agree we need better personnel on defense.

If our defense keeps it close, we can't beat them with passes that are picked off for six or intentional grounding plays. However, he had plenty of good plays as well. Just needs to be a little more consistent. I would love to find out if he can deliver with a good defensive performance in a big game next season. I know he did not do it in the October game but he has improved since then. Personally, I doubt anyone else starts next year without injury. Reason is Coach's comments at the QB Club meetings. He said more than once that he had concerns about the back up QB situation. Therefore, rest of team around him needs to continue to improve.

Compare him to Zach Thomas...and you see his deficiencies en masse. No pocket presence, no quick twitch read ability, and he gets worse the more you blitz him. He will never eat a defense alive because of how they are gameplanning. He will either out athlete them...or he will make stupid mistakes due to pressure. You can’t adjust for it. This is his ceiling.

The difference is that it comes natural for Thomas. He sees the field and plays in real time and he is able to slow the game down so to speak. He is a natural.

Natural Light, not a very good beer.

Agree about our depth. Especially in our front 7 on D. We need to bring in another quality signing class. Middle of the road SBC won’t cut it. May need a little help on D via juco, but limit those numbers.
I won’t bad mouth LL. He has had a quality year. Hearing that our QB depth is not so good is concerning though. Hope we can have good “open” competition at QB this spring. And interested to see what our OL will look like after grads this year.
In the meantime, we have a bowl game to get ready for and get to win #11!

I’d take a game manager at this point.

Same here...preferably a Teddy Bridgewater type

So your saying if the qbs were flipped Cajuns would have dominated this game? Thomas does nothing special. Caleb Evans might be a heisman candidate in Boone. Maybe I’m not seeing it. But thomas doesn’t impress me. App as a whole is impressive. They controlled the line again. They got up early and that changed the game. Our D was so worried about assignments that we never forced app to do anything they didn’t want. We reacted the whole game. As a team the Cajuns have 10 turnovers this season and some of you put all of them on Levi. Thankfully he plays above yalls perception are we wouldn’t even be bowling this year.

[Peek a boo]

Is Cole Prudhomme eligible for another year next year ?????????
