LSU Game Thread...

We need a turnover and I still believe we will win.

No turnovers no chance.

 

[OrangeDW]

Just sad that we fans are always waiting for something bad to happen. It has twice already even though the D has been great. Coaching has hurt this team also with the play calling on O and D

Coaching has been phenomanal. Catch the friggin ball.

Was there a single penalty on LSU that half? The team known for penalties this year.

No

 

[longislandcuse]

Eh, I like the optimism, but not if our O can't get scores.

The offense is a worry for sure.. I guess I should also say, we can lose to anyone, but im trying to keep it upbeat ha.

We need playmakers in the worst way. These skill position guys are not very skilled at the moment.

Erv and Ish are adequate.

 

[Marroniac]

Judging from last game Dino and co. Have been good at halftime adjustments

What adjustments do we need? Don't drop the ball in the end zone? Don't let the refs miss calls?

 

[Finwad32]

Very encouraging...

 

[Briancuse]

This game was for the taking and we are killing ourselves with mistakes.

Yes, but none were called

I agree 100%. That score hurt so much. The D has been playing lights out. Need to go downfield more and catch the damn ball. Should be at least 14-10.

On the bright side, at least Nibiru didn't smash into Earth today.

I'm still stunned over that Sean Riley play. He dove for it instead of catching it in stride. These are the games that piss you off. No chance to win and they out punched the favorite only to be losing because they couldn't execute. Ishmael has to be stronger than a freshman DB. No moral victories here.

 

[SUFan44]

LSU is not very good.

That, or we are a lot better than we thought.

We should be winning this game, save a dropped TD and basically a pick 6.

All that being said, we need playmakers on offense. Luckily, I think they're coming.

OL hasn't been bad at all.

 

[Cuseman78]

We don't look physically overmatched. This is certainly progress. But frustrating progress. The Riley play - ugh.

 

[JJReddawg]

It isn’t even 9:00 yet. Have patience?

 

[OrangeDW]

Killdozer... I think your post got deleted. Rushing 3’was questionable, but the safety turned that into a TD. No idea what he was doing. Should’ve been a routine 15 yarder for a first down and that’s it with normal safety play.

 

[zjscuse]

What adjustments do we need? Don't drop the ball in the end zone? Don't let the refs miss calls?

More defensive pressure instead of rushing 3. Maybe special trick play ... Something damnit

 

[skurey]

Onside kick to start the half

 

[Alsacs]

Also the D won't be gassed this half.
They haven't been on the field that long.

Get a turnover D.

 

[CanadianSU]

Onside kick to start the half

No.

 

[blizz]

Someone needed a cheat code for catching,

It's on the way.

 

[anomander]

pretty disappointed. This game was there for the taking. 2 terrible plays have drastically altered this game.

Not sure how anyone...ya Killdozer i'm talking to you...Can blame coaching. What do you say...Hey Eric don't throw to the guy in the white jersey, hey Riley even though you our are returner, make sure you catch the easiest TD pass you will see in your career...or hey Jordan Martin/Dowels when you have a guy 2 on one down the sideline , whatever you do don't give him the middle of the field. At some point it has to be on the players, especially ones who have a crap ton of game experience

 

[rocfan44]

It isn’t even 9:00 yet. Have patience?

Hard to have patience when we really haven't done anything on the offensive side of the ball. Need to stretch the field more and the lack of a deep threat hurts. Can't dip and doink against LSU and expect to win.

 

[qdawgg]

3.7 avg per play on offense, it's going to be hard to win this game with that avg. That avg is how Lovie Smith's defense won games in the NFL, looked like the other offense was just walking up and down the field but at the end of the game they had barely scored.

That's been true so far this game. The drop hurts a lot but it's not like we've had a bunch of almost TD's, that drop was still one play in the half. So we get that chance once in the 2nd half and score and finish with 10 - 13 points and everyone feels good about themselves when we weren't really going to win. We'll see what happens, I hope I'm wrong but we can't win avg under 4 yards per play.

 

[Ish88888]

Damn it the D deserves better.

Awful safety angle and the WR got behind.

We need a score in the 2 minute drill.

Cmon on offense.

Why? Yea they played well most of the half , but we are now giving up chunk plays with wrs crossing over the middle, with nobody home. An area of the field we refuse to explore. Again, the T2 at its best without the 2 safeties in the same zip code.

 

[Orangefan1]

This game isn't over yet but you got to catch that ball and hit your receivers. Dungey made a stupid play to start the game and bounced back
