Bustle

[CajunRed]

1. winning on the road against a bottom 10 team that we should have blown out whether our nfl talent was on or off the field.... False improvement

2. Finally getting a kick blocked just to save our asses from losing the game after giving up our 2 TD lead YET AGAIN....False Improvement (there are many successful teams that barely ever block kicks or fieldgoals. this is not a huge key to success but very fortunate when it happens)

3. Zero Turnovers on Offense....True this is an improvement, but again its a Bottom 10 team, I would expect to see no turnovers to them. How about the countless dropped passes that were potential touchdowns?

So.....if we LOSE, that's bad.....but if we WIN, that's also bad. I was getting confused and just wanted to get things straight.

One of the worst things about college football today is that not only do you have to win, but it also has to have style points. I think this is because voters and computer programs determine who the best teams are. Unfortunately, perception is as important as actual play.

This is one of the many reasons why pro football is vastly superior to the college product.

The way we won is pathetic honestly. How can you be proud that we have yet to finish a game convincingly as we always seem to get destroyed in the second half.

Last time i checked a game consist of Four Quarters not 2 quarters, and you have to Tackle and not play 2 hand touch. We are lucky to be 2-2 and honestly I think we should be 3-1 because the Middle Tennessee team that we played is not the team that the rest of the sunbelt will play. The North Texas Team we played was their 2nd and 3rd string and we barely got by beating them. enough of this a Win is a Win bull____. We struggle to beat teams we should blow out and we get blown out by teams we should compete against.

Am I the only person that sees something wrong with that or do I just have this false belief that our team is potentially better than what they actually are?

If Bustle gets us to a bowl game at 6-6 its because the SunBelt worked their ass of to get extra contracts with bowl game committee's. Bustle will still be the same mediocre 6-6 or worse football coach and yes he is not getting the job done. Do you really wanna see UL go to a bowl at 6-6 and just get destroyed and be 6-7 because Bustle doesnt out coach anyone?

I would love to see us make it to a Bowl, but I dont necessarily want to watch us get embarassed in one.

Last time I checked, the team with the most points at the end of the game wins. I'm not saying that some of the concerns being voiced are not merited, but I am able to stay positive enough after a win to enjoy it. At the end of the season, I will THEN decide how we did and what we should do.

How can we be happy competing with the bottom feeders of the conference?

Who here is crowing about the win? What is our road record over the past 9 years? We escaped with a win...nothing more. Lets get this week over with and try to win some more conference games.

See yall! I'm off to the Saints game.

Thank You John Madden, I was totally unaware that you have to have more points than your opponent to win the game. :/

Ok, I've slept on it and guess what?! I STILL SAY FIRE BUSTLE NOW. All of you thinking that a bowl game warrants an extension are insane. At least 6 of the teams on our schedule are in the bottom 20 in the nation. You give him an extension and we continue to get blown out by every OOC opponent and the elite of our conference. Bustle is not doing his job. Our players are not prepared to play when Saturday comes around and he does not make in game adjustments. He shows up and collects a paycheck. We will never be competitive with Bustle coaching our football team PERIOD.

This pole question left off the most logical answer (surprise).Lets see what our record is at the end of the year. Bowl game = extension. No bowl game = fired.

No! We should focus on winning the conference, year after year. If we can do that the bowl games will come. No point in being second in conference and losing a bowl game if we get to one. Don't settle for "making it to a bowl game", win the damn game! So if Bustle cam win conference first and win the bowl game that comes with winning conference, yes extend his contract. Anything less than that, we should clean house.

I could be wrong it woulnd't be the first time (ask my wife), but his contract probably states that if we get to a bowl he gets an automatic contract extension.

Maybe I'm out of line, but shouldn't a choice in the poll be "wait till end of season...see how we did...then decide what to do"?
