Opponents View: Bielema knows Hogs can't take Ragin' Cajuns lightly

Exactly. Plus, one of the hardest things to do in all of sports is win on the road so......Why play for overtime on their homefield when its already one of the toughest places to play in all of college athletics...? I didn't understand the philosophy then and I still don't.

If Hud himself could re-execute the last few minutes of that game, he would have kept every pound of UL force on UF's neck and not let up. He brought an ___-whipping game plan for 55 minutes. He reverted to controlling clock and playing not to lose. He knows it. And he'd like to have those 5 minutes back. You hit the nail on the head. His "last minutes of the game with a lead" philosophy was good for 95% of our match-ups year to year. It wasn't, not just by the outcome, but by the science, for that game.

And this analysis is relevant right now. If we have a slight lead in the final minutes against Arkansas, at Fayetteville... we have to keep the pedal to the metal until all game clocks strike zero. No UL fan, except a knucklehead, will fault our staff for our "never let go of the rope we just tied around the neck of an SEC team" to get the damn win.

We lost to Arkansas many years ago in a 9-7 contest at Fayetteville. We were winning that game until the final minutes. We lost a game at Auburn, at Auburn, 25-24, being up 2 scores with 4 minutes left in the game. We had them. We shifted into prevent and Auburn scored, snatched the ball back and scored again. UL can never shift into "prevent gear" against an SEC team... ever again... even if it costs us. We are the pound you for 4 entire quarters team... or we are not.

I notice you lament on things that "woulda", "coulda" and "shoulda"....there won't be any of that after the game tomorrow as the Hogs will thoroughly prove SEC superiority

Gee, Edwin, I know you gotta hard on for us, but honestly we did not put you in jail, you did that all by yourself with your EllisWho education.

You should know a lot about the hogs... Eddie... having spent all that time in the pen. I bet you squealed a lot.

Now... when I want your opinion... I'll give it to you.
