i don't really but into the hurricane thing. But Tyrell went out early with a head injury and Des' nerves were a little bit touchy after committing an early turnover. The coaching staff had something to do with it, but not a ton. Our coaches were out-coached and our players out-played. Simple as that. It came down to who wanted it more as it will this weekend. Hopefully our guys locked up some of that pain from last year in some deep dark corner of their heart, letting it fester and grow. This weekend should be a slobberknocker (God bless Jim Ross)

I like that.

_ THB, not mentally ready. Hurricane Gustav bearing down. If you recall lsu changed their game to 10 am.

S Miss refused to change the game time. Lots of uncertainty amongst our guys about how long to get back. I believe contra flow had been started by the time the game had ended. Lots of uncertainty about safety of family members in the path of the storm.

Not an excuse, just a fact. USM got to show off their shiny new palace, not one USM fan inconvenienced....everything peachy for them.... we got blown out.

Anyone got a different take on what happened?

I think you're right. I just wonder what happened to that Southern Miss team. They've only won one game since then and haven't looked nearly as good as that opening weekend. Maybe we switched uniforms for that game!

I think one of the biggest parts of our poor and their great showing was the new highly emotional head coach----they were pumped big time along with the fore-mentioned facts!!!!

The game that really doesn't make sense to me is the Southern Miss game. Can anyone tell me what happened in that game?

Got whooped... didn't like it.

I merged your question with a post from CajunShocker that answers the question.

• How many players have we lost this season on defense to injury or being asked/kicked off the team?
• How many of the injury's are season ending?
• How deep are we in the depth chart from where we started at season's beginning at some of these positions? Which positions?

It is hard to follow all of this stuff from BR!!! I just know we are REALLY hurt, and trying to get a better clue, as to how hurt we are.

On D, we've lost 3 linebackers and all of them have starting experience!! Other than that, we're OK on D. On offense, we've lost L. Kelley and Derrick Smith really hasn't done anything due to injury and suspension. Desormeaux is limited with a sprained knee and I am very concerned about his status for this weekend. 4 people have been lost for the year, 3 on D and all at the same position!!!! Its a shame because this team is playing so well. Sooner or later, there is going to be a dropoff due to losing so many starters.

Ok, so I guess I did know about everything then. The way things were sounding, I thought we were on the 5th string player at almost every spot or something...

Mainly just the LB's going down is the big thing then. Guess it is hard to fill in one spot over and over and over like that. But everyone has to be ready to go.

Hope Dez is feeling better Sat, and that EVERYONE is ready to go if called upon!

Desmo is a warrior and it will take a lot to keep him off the field Saturday!
