UL coach on transfer QB Walker Howard: 'Everyone in Lafayette asks about Walker'

[Cajunrunner]

Right... and a big time talent split wide to throw it to. Last year defenses would load the box on us. Won't be able to this year.

You got Sampson on one side and Timelord Williams on the other. Both big targets that can take the top off of coverage. You got Charles Robertson working the intermediate and maybe Rahji working underneath. Then you got a capable TE with Caden Jensen as a safety valve. I think this offense is one of the most underrated we've had going into a season and I'm all here for it

We better have a line upfront to block. Doesn't matter how good your QB is if defenders are in the backfield and in your face within half a second after the snap. Marshall's defenders ate us up on the line in the SBC Champ game.

Still hard to believe that we stunk it up so much in that game. It was really bad.

Think G5 CFP.

Both teams had distractions going into the game. Marshall's was much publicized, for obvious reasons, and ours much more internal, as I'm willing to bet it was already known that week which players were bolting and some already had destinations.

Marshall's entire team was motivated like hell, fueled by the drama of their administration, to win that game for their coach. Even though many of them knew they'd be leaving, they wanted badly for Coach Huff to go out on top, a big middle finger to the university leadership that jerked him around.

Meanwhile, we had several guys playing not to get injured so they could capitalize on their new "NIL" payday. They couldn't wait for that game to be over.

Plus that whole, 2 injured QBs and a true freshmen QB against a 1st round draft pick on the edge thing..

Agree, but I still don't think a healthy Fields or healthy Ben would have made a difference in the W/L result. Marshall as a team absolutely whipped us. They looked like an entire unit on a mission.

Feel like we are gonna be better on the Line this year. Had a lot of young guys get playing time last year because of injuries. If we stay healthy they can be really good.

Like I said, teams aren't gonna load the box on us. Only Missouri and JMU can match us on the outside. Missouri because they have the talent to man press and JMU because they are so good upfront they can play a 4-2-5. Every other team is gonna slide someone over to help in coverage.

Linebackers won't be able to camp out in the gap. They'll be playing a few yards back to stop the big chunk plays. Which is fine. I love a good ground game with 5 or 6 yards a carry. As long as we control the clock and win.

The floor for this team is 8-4.

I think we win 10.

It would be our 5th 10 win season in 7 years.
