LGT Final: Louisiana 33 Tulane 41

I just want to clarify that K.C. being out the 2nd half is not why they completely ran all over us. Their OL had a huge push. But it would have helped greatly.

Their OL had a huge push.

This. Their OL bullied our DL.

Ben was under pressure the majority of the game. This is the reason we need players like Zeon Chriss and Levi Lewis. Pass protection has been and will continue to be a problem when we go up against good teams. When Houston poached our QB it all but ensured that we won’t be winning the big games.

I stated ad nauseum for Des to start Zeon before the start of last season. Neither Ben nor Fields are game changers. I'd have much rathered start Zeon and let him learn last year. This rationale that you gotta start "the veteran" guy "just because", didn't work did it? Because they were gonna give us a better chance to win? How'd that work out? Another mediocre season. But hey, now we have these "vets" that are keeping us mediocre. Is it squarely on the QB? Of course not. But now Zeon is gone and we're stuck with the same "game managers". I just want to know how and where we have improved as a team under Des. It's year 3 and it's the SAME story. Same struggles. Not sure how anyone couldn't see this was going to be the result. I know it's still early and the season isn't over, and I honestly was very optimistic that this year would be different. But so far, it's the same crap. First 2 games/opponents was fools gold. Just incredibly frustrating that we blew an incredible opportunity to seize the moment to capitalize on our success under Napier and did what we do. . . we USL'd it.

Napier was fools gold, he just got out before we could get the Jeweler to put that little solution on him to test him . . .

Who actually thought we were making playoffs with this coach? I wanna know where you get your lettuce.

In any game of football, far too many things can, will, and do occur (scoring wise) to make a 3 point deficit your be all and end all goal so early in the third quarter.

That's literally the opposite of what I was saying but continue

Just reading that K.C. Ossai missed the second half with an upper body injury. That makes sense as to how much they ran the ball down our throats in the second half. We need him back asap.

We were having the ball shoved down our throat while he was in there also

Not like the 2nd half though.

Was a beautiful day though. Literal sunshine pumping. Life is good
