MSU/Arkansas

[msstate7]

Defense is saving us

[ScoobaDawg]

dont give up the big run.. get the ball back..

good job 3rd and 13

[BayouDawg]

Why must we be so inconsistent? Is it in our genes?

[DownwardDawg]

We gonna lose. But the worst part is what do we do for QB after this performance??!

[SailingDawg]

Another Arky possession of less than a minute.

[ScoobaDawg]

If Shrader's playing we're winning right now. He'd have a field day with all the running room.

that's stupid. they wouldn't be dropping 8 in zone if he was playing... he isn't that good a passer.

[preachermatt83]

Arnett has made some good adjustments. Too bad KJ is a turnover machine

[msstate7]

Td here, or we lose

[R2Dawg]

Our running backs are running hard and been effective.

[maroonmania]

We gonna lose. But the worst part is what do we do for QB after this performance??!

KJ is about all we have. Didn't sound like Rogers would be available for several weeks.

[BeardoMSU]

5 ints in 7+ quarters. 2 pick 6s

That's ****ing awful. No way to spin that shit.

[Matt3467]

How does Shrader not fit as a QB in Leach's system? He's not a bad passer.

[ScoobaDawg]

time for a 91 yard 8 minute drive...

[preachermatt83]

If Shrader's playing we're winning right now. He'd have a field day with all the running room.

Oh good grief.

[Negative Waves]

Why must we be so inconsistent? Is it in our genes?

These are the games where I miss Mullen?s consistency. This is reminding me of Sherrills games against the Hogs. Playing down to a bad team right now.

[Cooterpoot]

Costello has given up 24 points in two games. That's pathetic

[preachermatt83]

that's stupid. they wouldn't be playing zone if he was playing... he isn't that goof a passer.
And here we are agreeing again

[Bothrops]

Our running backs are running hard and been effective.
Our Rb's are very talented

[Matt3467]

that's stupid. they wouldn't be playing zone if he was playing... he isn't that goof a passer.

it's still Leach coaching. They may not be playing as much zone but they'd still have to respect the pass as well as keep at least one in as a spy opening up more in the passing game.

[magrooder]

Marks got to catch that.

[ScoobaDawg]

marks nearly caused that to be game..whew

[maroonmania]

Td here, or we lose

At minimum we need to flip field position. 3 and out would have ARK ready to put the game away.

[preachermatt83]

Marks needs to sit and let Johnson play

[Matt3467]

Oh good grief.

How is that even a stretch when our QB now has thrown 3 picks with one a pick 6?

[ScoobaDawg]

johnson ran out of his shoe. 3rd and 4

[msstate7]

Heath has an iq of 55

[BayouDawg]

These are the games where I miss Mullen?s consistency. This is reminding me of Sherrills games against the Hogs. Playing down to a bad team right now.

Spot on

[maroonmania]

Dang Heath! Had the 1st and gave it away! Damn

[defiantdog]

Damnit heath..... go forward

[ScoobaDawg]

damnit he had the 1st and gave it up

[parabrave]

Somebody teach Guidry JR how to run with. the ball

[ScoobaDawg]

come on d.. bail us out. ball downed at 32. 11:13 left

[msstate7]

Heath probably cost us a shot at winning. What a complete DA

[Bothrops]

I'd put Shrader in at qb. That's how you **** up this defense.

[R2Dawg]

How does Shrader not fit as a QB in Leach's system? He's not a bad passer.

He can throw 5 yards anyway. That is all we will see rest of year.

[preachermatt83]

Let’s be honest a min here tho guys. Down one score in the 4th and you got one play caller to choose from... who would we want?? Leach all day. We just need Costello to get his head out of his rear.

[Matt3467]

I'd put Shrader in at qb. That's how you **** up this defense.

Exactly

[magrooder]

We desperately need a turnover.

[msstate7]

If we'd just be patient, we could Nickle and dime them to death.

[R2Dawg]

Well now I'm a little concerned about the Leach era. Not giving up on our team by no means but tonight performance real, real bad.

[CJDAWG85]

Heath has not done anything of value so far this this season.. and that says a TON

[msbulldog]

Heath has an iq of 55

DO NOT BAD MOUTH OUR PLAYERS 7. Their people read this board.

[TrapGame]

WE need a strip sack on Franks.

[maroonmania]

Our tackling is very bad.

[Saltydog]

We don't have offensive sets for Shrader.

[ZedFedder]

Regardless if we win or not, what a bummer from last week.

[RocketDawg]

Recovered fumble!

[msstate7]

D is saving us

[magrooder]

There's the turnover we need!!

[SailingDawg]

We desperately need a turnover.

This

[maroonmania]

Ok, here is our chance! They gave us the ball.

[ScoobaDawg]

fumble!!1111 bulldog ball

[SailingDawg]

This

AND IT HAPPENED

[DownwardDawg]

We desperately need a turnover.

There u go

[BayouDawg]

Now all of leach?s descriptions of us being explosive but inconsistent during camp makes sense. We can make big plays but when we are forced to consistently do the little things we self implode

As I type this we get a needed turnover!

[ScoobaDawg]

brueleeee!!!

[ScoobaDawg]

ball on 21. lets roll.
johnson up middle for 2.

[parabrave]

Dam KH getting hurt is going to hurt us. Hopefully it's not a concussion

[magrooder]

What a lousy play by the line.

[ScoobaDawg]

johnson... keep it going. 3rd and 2

[ScoobaDawg]

damnit.. no gain. 4th and 1

[msstate7]

What an awful pass

[preachermatt83]

Msstate7... you are proving yourself wise. Lol. Well done sir. I can admit when I’m wrong

[TrapGame]

DAMN KJ!!!!

[maroonmania]

Another bad throw from KJ

[defiantdog]

Costello is awful tonight

[parabrave]

Dam

[Bothrops]

Costello may not be draftable after this season.

[ScoobaDawg]

FUXK **** **** how do you throw that lowwww

[Cooterpoot]

I officially hate this offense

[mparkerfd20]

GD it Leach. Take the mother f u c k I n g points!!!!!

[R2Dawg]

Leach gets beat by Sam Pittman, what in the world

[vv83]

Shotgun was arguing with me when I told him KJ wouldn't be a top 5 pick. jfc

[BeardoMSU]

KJ is ****ing dreadful tonight.

If the number of interviews he did this week had an impact, we won't have to worry about that going forward. Silver lining.**

[msstate7]

Defense shouldn't have to make another crucial stop, but they'll have to. F this inconsistent offense

[BulldogBear]

What the hell just happened?

We need a defensive score. Let's win Croom style.

[defiantdog]

Goddammit Leach. Take the mother f u c k I n g points!!!!!
Good call, bad execution

[DownwardDawg]

Goddammit Leach. Take the mother f u c k I n g points!!!!!

Yeah. That was bad. Should be 21-17

[PCHSDawg]

Live by the sword, die by the sword.

[Statecoachingblows**]

Ugly offense, pretty unexpected. Arnett earning a payday

[Cooterpoot]

I don't see another win this year. Losing to this trash ass team is an embarrassment.

[TrapGame]

Leach gets beat by Sam Pittman, what in the world

Actually it's Barry Odom w/ an assist. from Briles. Pittman is just standing there.

[R2Dawg]

I officially hate this offense

Cooter, I'm with you. I never like the idea but was open to it. Now that I see this, I don't like it. Looks like a snake oil offense.

[BeardoMSU]

GD it Leach. Take the mother f u c k I n g points!!!!!

The play was perfect, actually....Guy was wide open....KJ just couldn't hit water if he fell out of a boat tonight.

[Bothrops]

Shrader would have scored off this

[ZedFedder]

Yeah... Maybe Bo Pelini needs fired. This is hysterical. In the not funny way.

[msstate7]

I don't see another win this year. Losing to this trash ass team is an embarrassment.

But OM's offense is trash, right?

[R2Dawg]

Actually it's Barry Odom w/ an assist. from Briles. Pittman is just standing there.

Yeah I agree but PIttman is the HC.

[SailingDawg]

The play was perfect, actually....Guy was wide open....KJ just couldn't hit water if he fell out of a boat tonight.

Just set MSU record for completions.

[ScoobaDawg]

not over yet. come on d... do it again

[maroonmania]

Has Austin Williams caught a ball all night? Payton only has the TD.

[brokennotfractured]

Guess we see why Will Rogers was listed as an OR on the depth chart.

[Quaoarsking]

Just set MSU record for completions.

He didn't really. ESPN researchers are garbage.
https://www.espn.com/college-football/boxscore?gameId=400603922

[ZedFedder]

Costello deserves a fair share of the blame for the offense not working, too.

[Matt3467]

Has Leach ever yanked his starting QB out in a game? I can't recall.

[Saltydog]

Yeah, it's pretty obvious we've been exposed. We'll face teams with WAY better athletes than Upig. If we can't solve this riddle, it's going to be a long year.......

[msstate7]

Lucky drop there

[preachermatt83]

kJ is terrible

[SailingDawg]

Errol Thompson is playing, if you weren?t sure.

[ScoobaDawg]

damn..almost int for us.

[parabrave]

What is the longest pass completed tonite? 10, 15 YDs?

[TrapGame]

Thank you D.

[SailingDawg]

kJ is terrible

MSU record for completions two straight weeks. First two games.

[msstate7]

Defense is saving us. Been saying it all night

[maroonmania]

But OM's offense is trash, right?

Our D is significantly better than OM but right now I would say they have the better offense.

[BeardoMSU]

Just set MSU record for completions.

for a woppin' 5 yards per catch. Ya, good stuff.

[R2Dawg]

Like it or not Leach did what Joe did, bring his QB. Hope KJ works out better than Stevens. Not looking real good right now.

[BulldogBear]

Why did the 17ing clock continue to run for 7-8 seconds after the incompletion?

[ScoobaDawg]

4tthhhh dowwwnn damn good job d.

[RocketDawg]

Arkansas is giving us every chance to win.

[SailingDawg]

How many drives of less than sixty seconds does Arky have tonight?

[magrooder]

Walley with a good punt return.

[PCHSDawg]

Gut check time.

[msstate7]

Our D is significantly better than OM but right now I would say they have the better offense.

I'm just screwing with cooter. I think ark is better than OM defensively

[ScoobaDawg]

walley returns to the 29 yard line. COME ON Costello.. 29 yards

[msstate7]

How stupid can we be

[maroonmania]

Only our total offensive incompetence is keeping us from winning tonight.

[ScoobaDawg]

7:32....

and penalty on us. 12 players. shit. now 34 yards

[parabrave]

Malik strikes again.

[BeardoMSU]

Have we had any explosive plays since the 1st quarter?

[ScoobaDawg]

dumps off down to the 28.

[ScoobaDawg]

johnson down to the 25 . 3rd and 5

[magrooder]

Costello could run for the first. He needs to nut up and be a man

[ScoobaDawg]

first doooown gardner. inside the 20

[ScoobaDawg]

2nd and 6... inc triple coverage to payton on back line of ez

[magrooder]

what a shitty spot

[BeardoMSU]

Why is he sliding short of the 1st ****ing down?!?

[BulldogBear]

KJ had FD if he had not hesitated.

[msstate7]

Costello is so weak

[Matt3467]

Marks reminds me of Holloway

[TrapGame]

DAMN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[BeardoMSU]

Lolz. Wow. We deserve to lose this game.

[ScoobaDawg]

costello gave himself up a half yard short stupid

[BulldogBear]

This is Costello's loss.

Holy 17ing Shit.

[msstate7]

Costello is the reason we losing. He can take that ***** shit back to the pac12

[SailingDawg]

what a shitty spot

Jeez can they review that spot?

[maroonmania]

I thought KJ had enough. Terrible spot.

[defiantdog]

What was that

[ScoobaDawg]

marks stuffed. we lost 4./. wtf thats game likely

[redstickdawg]

fun while it lasted

[SailingDawg]

Unbelievable

[Bothrops]

We can not run block.. I mean what's it going to take??

[ScoobaDawg]

**** fyck fuk

[maroonmania]

Costello is the reason we losing. He can take that ***** shit back to the pac12

Apparently he thinks he is in the NFL with a 30 mil/yr contract. AWFUL

[Duckdog]

Because of leaches dumbass hard head we are still down by 7. We should have kicked two god damn field goals

[BulldogBear]

With Shrader at QB in 2nd half we win this one by 2 TDs. I'm not for a change. I'm not. I'm just saying. He couldn't have thrown any worse and would've taken the ground stuff they offered him.

[preachermatt83]

Costello is scared

[RocketDawg]

I thought KJ had enough. Terrible spot.

It's marked where the QB starts the slide.

[vindastra]

Marks == Holloway 2.0

[Matt3467]

Holloway up the middle

[magrooder]

It galls me when a player won't put his head down and make a play. Costello had the first and pussed out. Not acceptable.

[TrapGame]

KJ had Gardner open on the 5 on that end zone try. He got too greedy.

[TimberBeast]

Did we actually just hand the ball to marks on 4th and 1? Did I see that correctly?

[Bothrops]

fun while it lasted

Yep 1 game. The most Mississippi State thing I've seen in a while

[preachermatt83]

I lost all respect for Costello

[BeardoMSU]

It just means more.**

[SilentSteel16]

I know leach will be leach, but good god, is there not a zone off tackle run? Also, Shrader would have had that first down... I agree, if shrader was in the game with them rushing 3 he would tuck it and run it. Costello does seem to be tentative when expecting contact.

[Bothrops]

With Shrader at QB in 2nd half we win this one by 2 TDs. I'm not for a change. I'm not. I'm just saying.
Shrader wins tonight, and I'd love a change.

[maroonmania]

It's marked where the QB starts the slide.

He didn't slide!

[Matt3467]

I lost all respect for Costello

Bet Shrader gets the first there. Heck Tyler Russel gets the first there.

[Cooterpoot]

Costello is a ***** and Leach is a damn fool not taking the points.

[ScoobaDawg]

come on d...

[SilentSteel16]

Averaging a pick 6 every game will give you a loss every game.

[ScoobaDawg]

3rd and 1...

[West Tn Dawg]

Costello is scared

And it has cost us this game!

[RocketDawg]

He didn't slide!

I didn't think so either at first, but it looked like a slide in the replay from a different angle.

[DownwardDawg]

Wow. Our D is so much better than our offense.

[R2Dawg]

Think we got the asnswer about LSU win was bigger than 2014? Not hardly.

[SilentSteel16]

Defense has blown coverages a few times tonight, but Costello is dropping pick 6 every game.

[ScoobaDawg]

have to stuff him here

[magrooder]

One last chance to get the tie

[Saltydog]

If we lose this game, it's squarely on Costello. That's twice he's pussed out and not gotten the first. That the three pics are just not going to cut it in this league.

[ScoobaDawg]

denied!!!!!

[BeardoMSU]

NM. **** that.

[msstate7]

D gives Costello another chance to be weak

[HoopsDawg]

Why the F is there a true freshman on PR?

[magrooder]

Never f'n mind.

[TrapGame]

WELL SHIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

[SailingDawg]

Is it true that bad teams bring you down to their level? Is that what's going on here?

Another three and out. Another possession of less than a minute by Arky.

[PCHSDawg]

Jeez

[RocketDawg]

my goodness, another chance and then we muffed the punt.

[maroonmania]

Where is Austin??

[R2Dawg]

Wow. Our D is so much better than our offense.

Wow, looks that way doesn't it.

[redstickdawg]

ball game, we got out coached out played everything

[ZedFedder]

Shoutout to the defense. Good Lord.

[Really Clark?]

That’s game. Defense did a good a job tonight.

[msstate7]

Ark wins. We made a mistake at HC, again

[BeardoMSU]

Oh boy, lol. **** me.

[Irondawg]

Well Murphy law in full effect this game. Why is Walley suddenly returning punts anyway?

[ScoobaDawg]

****. wally just lost the game. fair catch. dropped it

[BulldogBear]

I thought it was delay of game on the punt but refs haven't been to keen tonight.

[Cooterpoot]

Mike Leach has been a joke tonight. Terrible decisions all night.

[SailingDawg]

WHAT ELSE CAN GO WRONG

[R2Dawg]

Why was Williams not taking those punts?

[maroonmania]

This is THE most MState thing ever. Beat LSU on the road only to lose to Ark at home.

[DownwardDawg]

Welp

[maroonmania]

WHAT ELSE CAN GO WRONG

We are stubborn about losing tonight. We ARE going to make sure that happens.

[HoopsDawg]

Where is Austin??

Good damn question. Leach has been coaching for 50 years. Never put a True Freshman on punt return.

[TimberBeast]

First off you call a damn timeout there. Second of all there?s a reason Austin Williams was the punt returner for a reason.

[TrapGame]

If Kentucky rushes 3 and drops 8 and we lose I'm done.

[defiantdog]

What an awful game

[DownwardDawg]

This is a Croom performance

[ScoobaDawg]

is there life... come on d

[Irondawg]

I’m not ready to say we made a mistake but if a team is going to rush 3 you’ve got to be able to run for 5-6 yards a carry until they drop it and you have to trust your sr qb to make good decisions

[SailingDawg]

Where is Austin??

He won't run and doesn't have the speed. Trying to make something happen.

[Saltydog]

Why in the eff was Williams not in there fielding the punt? He's the most sure handed guy we have. This is an effing shit show.

[Bothrops]

Costello doesn't trust himself, has tunnel vision and is wimpy. We can't run block, our secondary is awful and we just laid down with Arkansas. We are slumpbuster U!

[SilentSteel16]

Can we also get Bully to shut the hell up? Almost as annoying as the Vandy Whistler

[msstate7]

Why was Williams not taking those punts?

Walley made a good return last time. Leach and Costello lost this game, not walley

[BeardoMSU]

Calling this depressing is the understatement of the day, lol.

[HoopsDawg]

I’m not ready to say we made a mistake but if a team is going to rush 3 you’ve got to be able to run for 5-6 yards a carry until they drop it and you have to trust your sr qb to make good decisions

Yeah, but its the same damn running play everytime.

[R2Dawg]

Well the wagon, pretty lonely now.

[defiantdog]

C34 was right

[Irondawg]

And now Felipe franks decides to make a great play

[ScoobaDawg]

even if we got the ball right now.. minute and half dont think costello could get down the field safely

[ScoobaDawg]

first down oh well

[maroonmania]

This performance tonight was every bit as bad as any Moorhead performance.

[HoopsDawg]

Awful performance by Leach and Costello. Just awful.

[msstate7]

LSU is freaking pathetic. We made a mistake, boys

[Irondawg]

No doubt our running attack needs some variety - but our oline wasn’t exactly creating good holes either and these guys all know how to run block

[Dawgology]

State looked terrible tonight. Not really understanding the 180 in preparedness. Oh well.

[HoopsDawg]

This performance tonight was every bit as bad as any Moorhead performance.

So just drop 3 and play zone the rest of the year. Just like Washington always did.

[DownwardDawg]

Ok. Leach sucks. This was a horrible loss

[Percho]

If we lose this game, it's squarely on Costello. That's twice he's pussed out and not gotten the first. That the three pics are just not going to cut it in this league.

Inside the 5 yard line. Twice

[Saltydog]

Would you do anything else? Plus, their offense will run it down our throats.

[ScoobaDawg]

Calling this depressing is the understatement of the day, lol.

what a f*cking joke.

what the **** happened to costello...

[TrapGame]

Barry Odom got into Costello's head in the 1st quarter.

[TimberBeast]

He won't run and doesn't have the speed. Trying to make something happen.

He?s not back there to run, he?s back there to not drop the damn ball.

[Matt3467]

Peters on defense has been just as bad. Two blown coverages that led to TDs plus that last spirit crushing conversion.

[ZedFedder]

Squarely on Leach and Costello. They’ve gone from our biggest darlings to our biggest question marks.

[defiantdog]

State looked terrible tonight. Not really understanding the 180 in preparedness. Oh well.
They came in thinking they would win and didn't play hungry

[maroonmania]

If your QB isn't willing to put his head down in the 4th Q to get a first down, you don't deserve to win!

[bulldawg28]

Leach and Costello were terrible. Do we not have more than two running plays?

[Bothrops]

This is a Croom performance

^

[Cooterpoot]

Moorhead would've won that game. Mike Leach made terrible decision after terrible decision and his QB is scared to get hit. The SEC is going to eat us alive.

[Cooterpoot]

Peters on defense has been just as bad. Two blown coverages that led to TDs plus that last spirit crushing conversion.

That was Furge.

[ScoobaDawg]

well.. we get the ball one last time..

[Matt3467]

That was Furdge.

On both blown coverages?

[SailingDawg]

Ok, 3rd and 35, what just happened?

[maroonmania]

I don't understand why you put a true freshman back to field a punt in a critical situation?

[Saltydog]

MOST MISSISSIPPI STATE THING, EVAH......Well, that and Maine.......

[Cooterpoot]

On both blown coverages?

Yep.

[Dawgcap]

Some of y?all need to shut the hell up.

[msstate7]

well.. we get the ball one last time..

With like 20 seconds

[defiantdog]

Moorhead would've won that game. Mike Leach made terrible decision after terrible decision and his QB is scared to get hit. The SEC is going to eat us alive.
JoMo would not have won that...... Arkansas have coaches with a pulse now. Costello was lost all night and scared to put his head down. We lost because we didn't play hungry and with aggression.

[Statecoachingblows**]

Moorhead would've won that game. Mike Leach made terrible decision after terrible decision and his QB is scared to get hit. The SEC is going to eat us alive.

Not sure I can disagree with much, but assuming JOMO would win any game is just anger talkin!

[BeardoMSU]

And somehow we're gonna get the ball back...plenty of time for KJ to throw a pick six, lol.

[HoopsDawg]

We wasted that timeout earlier in the half also.

[msstate7]

Some of y?all need to shut the hell up.

Yeah, leach was awesome!!!!!

[R2Dawg]

If your QB isn't willing to put his head down in the 4th Q to get a first down, you don't deserve to win!

True, it don't mean more in PAC10
