Haven’t read the rest of the thread yet, but I’ll chime in here anyway.
Several people have mentioned the short week as a reason for us coming out the gate slow. But let’s not forget Georgia State had the same short week AND had to travel. And I think they were on the road last week albeit only to GS.
Levi was not sharp early on. Yes, Lacy did have a drop or 2; but the potential TD pass to him was hot and behind him. We were fortunate to win this game given some of our mistakes; but the TEAM never gave up and kept fighting to the end. D came up big a lot last night. And Percy was a STUD last night.
Give GSU credit. They played hard and seemed to have a good game plan for us. Will be fun to see how they finish out the year, and specifically how they match up with Coastal.

Edit: I’ve been in the upper deck when cold and windy. Not fun. I think it was the night we received our 1st or 2nd NOLA Bowl bid. Was in the 40’s and breezy. Froze my tush off. Thankfully we had gumbo warmed up at the tailgate!!

So last night the upper deck was warmer than top of lower bowl where I normally sit. I moved up to check it out and stayed there because it was cold AF in my normal seats with the way the wind flows through there

Let’s blame the 2018 championship game on Levi as well. Even tho nunez was the QB. The ____ is tiring. I’m not a defender of him or a hater. I’m somewhat in the middle when it comes to him but blaming him for everything is BS.

As much as levi took heat last night. O-line deserves equal blame, 69 of 143 (48%) rushing yards came on last td drive and the kneel down drive.

I’ve defended Levi against the non-stop Levi haters on here, and I thought after that INT that we might see Fields the next possession just to see if he could do anything, and Levi back in if he couldn’t.

But LL definitely responded like you’d expect the high character leader of a team to do. Nice stiff arm to the helmet of a much bigger defender to convert a 3rd down, then a nice TD throw to LeBlanc on 4th & Goal.

And that there shows why Coach Napier is going to ride him out this season. Again, Coach potentially has a $8 Million + job offer waiting for him if this season continues the way it’s going during this winning streak. He’s going to play the guy he trusts the most to win the game.

While the game was frustrating to watch, as have been a number of games this year, this team showed resilience, poise and determination in facing a 10 point deficit. What you didn't see is finger pointing at each other and getting in each other's faces. They rallied behind their team leaders and coaching staff, and believed they could get the job done.

Yes Levi did not play well, nor did the offensive line and defensive line either. But as you stated, when this team need him to step up and play within himself, he made plays.
This team showed us something last night. They showed why Levy and a few others are the leaders in the locker room that we've heard so much about. In the face of adversity, this team held together. Some of that comes from the personality of Billy Napier.

To have a special kind of season, a team will have to face adversity and win games like last night. This is the third game they have done it now this season. The game was not what we expected, some of it was because of our own mistakes and lack of execution, and some of it was because of the Georgia State coaching staff. In the end, we are West Division Champions !

That’s a bad performance for Levi. But without his arm last night we don’t win. Our o line looked as bad as they have all year. If you don’t think the passing game got us through that game than there’s no helping you until Levi’s gone.

[Big Buds]

It’s the black uniforms. Two games in 2021 with an average margin of victory of 3 points! Just burn them already!

Jokes aside this team has the will to win!

There is no helping some to like the Louisiana Ragin Cajuns . . . they like cheese so much they will never stop whining . . . trust me when Levi is gone, it will be something else.

I may have missed it, but I have yet to see anyone comment or compliment LL on his drive saving scramble where he stiff armed a defender into the turf.

Some on here will only appreciate this kid once he is gone. That's unfortunate.

Oh no, here it was his fault solely we in that situation . . .
