The end of the half debacle yesterday....

[hacker]

The Saints JUST came out of a timeout and didn't get their play called on time. FIRE SEAN PAYTON

exactly- our fans just see us make mistakes and never watch any other teams play apparently. Teams do stupid shit in every game- every week.

We are a 10 point favorite over Kentucky-win by 6- our fans go nuts and say Mullen didnt have the team prepared or coached
Hud is a 32 point favorite yesterday and is down 2 TD's at half. Wins by 13 or 14- but he is the mf'ing man. Even if his team underperformed much worse.

Fans are fanatics for a reason

Wow, comparing us to the Saints? But we're just "fans being fanatical". Then you must be delusional.

I'm at a loss for words at how sheepish you have become over Mullen. It's like he has pictures of your wife naked. Nobody said Hud was the man yesterday....instead it was actually one of you Mullen defenders that said "Oh Noz!!1!1 the legend is trailing to 1-6 New Mexico State!!1!1!1 I thought he was the savior!!1!!" And then he proceeded to score 35 2nd half points and make that look dumb as shit. But now you spin it into people saying Hud is a God because he won by 14. What a joke.

And actually, if you truly think we could have spiked the ball in time to stop the clock after that curl, you're clueless. There was no chance. The ball was caught with 6-7 seconds left and the officials wouldn't have even spotted it in time to spike it. Regardless of the Assistant (who is Dan's employee) ****ing up...Dan ****ed up by calling that play regardless.

My God, you people trying to defend Mullen are ridiculous. We all want Mullen to succeed....but when he's screwing up why can you not just call a spade a spade? Why try to spin it and defend him like he's your child. He makes pretty damn good money...I would think he could come up with a better play call after 2 timeouts. Maybe I'm expecting too much from a guy that obviously is a child that needs protection.

Since it's obvious you aren't letting that go -- after already sticking your foot in your mouth on this yesterday -- Hudspeth accomplished TWO things yesterday Mullen has never done in his CAREER here. Came back from a halftime deficit. Came back from a 4th quarter deficit.

His team came out flat in a trap game, got punched in the mouth, and while you were crowing about it before halftime(reread the thread -- it's bad that several of us had confidence in his halftime adjustments and are starting to develop a swag about it, when if it were our coaches, it would have been doom and gloom meltdown). ULL adjusted, gritted their teeth, and came storming back to win convincingly. Even in an underperformance, he was better than Mullen in multiple ways.

LSU was supposed to beat us by 7. They beat us by 33. We were supposed to beat Bowling Green by 11.5, but won by 1. But Mullen can do no wrong here.

Anybody that can look at what happened at halftime yesterday and think Mullen will EVER win a close game against an equally or superior talented team is kidding themselves.

There are no trap games when you are a 32 point favorite AT HOME...try that bullshit somewhere else

Hud and his bunch ****ed off and werent up for the game- and it was obvious. They turned it on in the 2nd half. Mullen has never been behind at half against a shitty team like Hud was- so no need to comeback

But I thought we had a "let down" game against BG?? Can ULL not have let down games???? Oh that's right, only MSU and ONLY when we are trying too hard to defend our coach that isn't getting shit done.

ULL can absolutely have a letdown game. And they did. I'm just laughing at Engie trying to spin it like Hud did something worth a shit yesterday. He didnt. He struggled to beat a terrible 1-8 football team

He made a comeback.

When did Mullen do that? I'll wait.

"Struggled to beat"? He won by 14.

Exactly. Coach has gone full blown sheep on this for some reason that I do not understand and lost all semblance of reality and common sense. There's plenty that's defensible about Mullen -- this is NOT it.

What about Troy last year?
What about UAB 2011?
What about La Tech 2010?
Need I go on?
And those were just the ones that ENDED close(unlike Hud's game last night) that we actually won.

Nevermind all the other 12-13 games I addressed -- that we lost in close ones to similarly talented teams.

What happened before halftime is a microcosm of the whole "coaching" problem with Mullen. You don't beat good teams when you totally(and consistently) screw the pooch while they are reeling.

Actually we trailed a TERRIBLE UAB team at halftime in 2011. 3-0. The offensive guru was shut out at half by a bad CUSA team.

Why do you insist on going down with the Mullen ship?
