Live Game Talk: Louisiana vs. Minnesota

[mxpxfr690]

Dude even though we lost today it is hard not to get excited about Zeon once he grows up a bit

[RaginScotsman]

Their big guys were better than ours.

Minn stopped our running game game cold for 3rd, most of 4th.

That PI call......still chaps My arse.

A lot of the PI calls were very soft if not nonexistent.

Everyone saw the game was won in the trenches. The gophers were as advertised.

I loved our effort in the first half. The second half, Minn just tried to take Z out the game and they did. He still did some good things. Just freshman stuff too.

It’s crazy. We actually out gained them.

The bad news is we lost games. The even more bad news was they were winnable games.
ETA: You know what, we're a very young team hanging with a P5 and that's a good thing.

When they can take away our running game with the four down lineman, it makes containing ZC a lot easier. No one left on our schedule should be able to duplicate that.

I totally agree.....only 2nd ever start. VERY similar belief as when Jake became our starter his Freshman year.

Interceptions were the difference. Much rather play these types of P5 schools every year. Like the Iowa States and Minn. we actually can compete sbd probably should have won the game if not for the interceptions, but I’m confident Zeon will learn from it. We just need to get a lower P5 to Cajun Field and I promise you we win that game.

Ball control was the difference. If we make a few stops in the 2nd half we would have still had a shot. Minnesota just did a good job of holding the ball and moving the game along.

[Grantvb]

We had 10 drives in the game. We scored on 4 of them.

[CharlieK]

We were beat on the LOS, badly. A few less mistakes, and a more fairly called game would have helped, but it’s hard to win when you can’t win up front.

[Grantvb]

Silver lining: no fumbles.

[Cajunrunner]

We don’t make halftime adjustments with this staff. That’s what I’ve gathered from the NOLA Bowl vs Marshall to now.

That’s Hud staff 2.0. Not good for long term success.

I want to be wrong. I really do. But I don’t think I am on this observation.

[CajunVic]

. . . I’m not sure how much weight we could have put on our linemen at halftime but we need to get that fixed . . .
