That was until it happened. And I have many many other evaluations which have panned out to be true.
And I'm telling you now that kid from Coastal, barring a major injury, is going to be a very high draft pick in the NFL IF he continues to play at the level he played the other night. Now, as far as not playing up to their capability, I agree with you that UL wasn't playing up to their capabilities the last two games. But they played their best game of the year last night. Coastal was just absolutely incredible. Can UL play better? I believe they can & I believe they will. But Napier was planning to play this game against App. State 2 1/2 weeks ago. But the whole season got turned upside down on him.
But they are now into their offensive scheme for the first time this year. And they will improve offensively. And that will take the pressure off their defense & allow them to play a lot more open & loose. When this season is over even you are going to be happy unless you were going to be totally disappointed with anything less than a BCS playoff invitation. I'm telling as strongly as I can that this is an excellent team & that the SBC is the class of this year's G-5 conferences.
