Mississippi State vs Kentucky Game Thread

[Bothrops]

Most of our recievers have forgotten what it's like to catch balls down field in a game, so their effort in waning.

[TNDawg35]

But but but C34..... defense bad.... 30PPG.... coffee loose weight.... 17 it all!!!

[LC Dawg]

Not on D.
Edited it. I meant on offense.

[Irondawg]

Our offensive line is terrible and our qbs indecisiveness is killing us

[KOdawg1]

We waited too late to fire Jo. Should've fired him after the Ole Miss game and hired Kiffin......

Post of the night

[Matt3467]

We waited too late to fire Jo. Should've fired him after the Ole Miss game and hired Kiffin......

Kiffin is a snake oil salesman. It'd be back to the same drama we had with Mullen after every year.

[PGHBulldogBG]

I didn?t think we would win this. But 2 points in the 4th quarter? Lmao

[ShotgunDawg]

Leach is going to have to have a come to Jesus moment with this offense.

This isn't close to working

[Cooterpoot]

I've seen a lot of shitty MSU football, but this is the worst I've ever seen. It's embarrassingly bad.

[VandelayIndustries]

We are not winning, just throw the ball down the field

[defiantdog]

How could Garrett be any worse than what we're seeing?!

[Irondawg]

It’s time to move GS back to qb and roll with that

[ShotgunDawg]

This is absolutely pathetic

[Statecoachingblows**]

We need a qb, we obviously don't have one

[DownwardDawg]

We waited too late to fire Jo. Should've fired him after the Ole Miss game and hired Kiffin......

Moorhead would beat Kentucky tonight. We ****ed up bad.

[msstate7]

Costello and this offense should be sent to the pasture. What a ducking disaster

[Bothrops]

We waited too late to fire Jo. Should've fired him after the Ole Miss game and hired Kiffin......

Except we would have never hired Kiffin.

[ShotgunDawg]

Terribly inaccurate.

Missed an open WRs by 3 yards

[99jc]

Moorhead would beat Kentucky tonight. We ****ed up bad.

Patience,,,,,,,,,,,,,

[DownwardDawg]

It’s time to move GS back to qb and roll with that

That's what a good coach would do. We don't have have one of those on this staff.

[HoopsDawg]

Leach may be setting us back worse than Moorehead. We are stuck with Leach for 3 years and it's going to be a mess to recover from.

[mparkerfd20]

Why Leach? Why?

[msstate7]

We need a qb, we obviously don't have one

And a coach with an offense suitable for the sec

[msstate7]

Leach may be setting us back worse than Moorehead. We are stuck with Leach for 3 years and it's going to be a mess to recover from.

We better hope Howland can keep progressing or it's gonna suck waiting till baseball

[ZedFedder]

Why take out Rogers? I mean

[KOdawg1]

Might as well just run 4 verticals every play and just chunk it up. We aren't winning anyway.

[VandelayIndustries]

Has there ever been such a fall from grace in two weeks? For Leach and Costello

[ShotgunDawg]

Our defense has to give up soon

[defiantdog]

Leach / JoMo have erased everything Mullen built. 2 points?!

[Quaoarsking]

And a coach with an offense suitable for the sec

The offense can work fine in the SEC. We're just not executing. There have been open receivers all game.

[HoopsDawg]

It’s time to move GS back to qb and roll with that

Whatever we would sacrifice with Shrader's passing, we would gain with his running ability.

[parabrave]

Dammit Leach you are going to have to install some power running plays until you van get this shi^ figured out. Either designed QB runs or a wildcat. Otherwise this will be the most crapastic offense since the 1878.

[BulldogBear]

I'm here on the the 50 yl behind the bench. I will not attend another MSU football game until an MSU QB scrambles for a FD when the opportunity is there. I'm sick of over coached QBs.

[VandelayIndustries]

Might as well just run 4 verticals every play and just chunk it up. We aren't winning anyway.

Please do this

[Cooterpoot]

Patience,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Never going to work

[msstate7]

The offense can work fine in the SEC. We're just not executing. There have been open receivers all game.
F Mike leach

[HoopsDawg]

This is the worst offensive performance since 3-2 Auburn under Croom. Congrats Leach.

[ShotgunDawg]

Watching Ole Miss run options, power, verticals, play action, wildcat, etc and we run about 3 plays.

There isn't near enough versatility to this offense

[ZedFedder]

If I’m Arnett I’m looking for the first open DC job I can find at the end of the season.

[TNDawg35]

D looks to be getting worn out now...

[msstate7]

It took a half vs Kentucky for me to realize Moorhead would never work. I have the same feeling seeing this vs Kentucky again

[Cowbell]

We better hope Howland can keep progressing or it's gonna suck waiting till baseball
Keep progressing? Hahahaha

[Really Clark?]

What a freaking hit and read by Emerson

[ShotgunDawg]

If I’m Arnett I’m looking for the first open DC job I can find at the end of the season.

Probably Bama

[HoopsDawg]

The offense can work fine in the SEC. We're just not executing. There have been open receivers all game.

You sure about that? It never worked against Washington. Never. The SEC has a whole bunch of Washingtons.

[DownwardDawg]

Ole Miss is going to embarrass us

[RocketDawg]

OM just tied Bama at 42

[msstate7]

Keep progressing? Hahahaha

Nit
5-seed tourney
No tourney for anyone last season

[Bothrops]

If I’m Arnett I’m looking for the first open DC job I can find at the end of the season.

Arnett will not be here next year.

[ShotgunDawg]

Ole Miss is going to embarrass us

Going to run us off the field

[parabrave]

Might as well just run 4 verticals every play and just chunk it up. We aren't winningIf you hav anyway.

Well thats what this offense basically is. Problem is There is too much speed in the SEC. If you have no threat of any running game them they will just sit back 8 and dare you. Last time I looked Brett Farve isn't throwing to Jerry Rice on our team.

[maroonmania]

I'm here on the the 50 yl behind the bench. I will not attend another MSU football game until an MSU QB scrambles for a FD when the opportunity is there. I'm sick of over coached QBs.

But why run when you can still throw it 2 yards past the LOS?***

[BeardoMSU]

The offense can work fine in the SEC. We're just not executing. There have been open receivers all game.

But why can't he adjust to the personnel this year? Why lose easily winnable games just to prove your offense can work the way you want it to? That's not what a good coach does.

[hp22]

The bad thing is

If we had another 20 possessions, I'm not sure we could take them.

The gameplan is just god awful.

[RougeDawg]

Can we just go back to the Bear Bryant strategy? Punt on 1st down and let your defense win the game. That is our only hope with QBs who cannot make good decisions and receivers that cannot catch colds.

[defiantdog]

Probably Bama
Or LSU

[maroonmania]

Going to run us off the field

Very proud of Zac Arnett and the defense. Seen a lot MSU defenses that would have quit by now with this offensive performance.

[HoopsDawg]

The bad thing is

If we had another 20 possessions, I'm not sure we could take them.

The gameplan is just god awful.

And we knew EXACTLY what they were going to do.

[msstate7]

Ole Miss is going to embarrass us

Ark embarrassed us
Kentucky embarrassed us
I'm quickly getting to the point where I won't be embarrassed bc I hate the direction of our program

[VandelayIndustries]

We going 98 yards here? Haha

[lastmajordog]

Kiffin is a snake oil salesman. It'd be back to the same drama we had with Mullen after every year.

snake oil is beating crap out of Satan with a sub par team......

[Irondawg]

Well the whole pirate thing was fun for a few months and we will always have Baron Rouge

[msstate7]

Gonna be fun recruiting to this shitastic offense while kiffin's is flat out electric

[HoopsDawg]

Well the whole pirate thing was fun for a few months and we will always have Baron Rouge

Thank goodness we played LSU week 1 and Bo Pelini was too stupid to play zone.

[DJ55]

It took a half vs Kentucky for me to realize Moorhead would never work. I have the same feeling seeing this vs Kentucky again
I'm with you send cohen with him

[LC Dawg]

A&M ran the ball many plays consecutively on a scoring drive today because they saw the opportunity. If your offense doesn't give you that flexibility it better be pretty ****ing perfect.

[hp22]

And we knew EXACTLY what they were going to do.

Yep

We have a better football team talent wise. Same last week too.

We've been outcoached. We've know the gameplan for 6 consecutive quarters. That's a great point.

Embarrassing

This worse than 3 - 2

[HoopsDawg]

Costello is missing guys by 5 yards.

[Bothrops]

Kiffin is not snake oil guy, he's a ****ing great offensive schemer

[ShotgunDawg]

There is no hope here. This offense has no hope

[BeardoMSU]

Gonna be fun recruiting to this shitastic offense while kiffin's is flat out electric

And we've got a HC that isn't known for his recruiting prowess, lol. Fun indeed.

[VandelayIndustries]

Just punt on 3rd down

[Bothrops]

Lollolololl

[BeardoMSU]

Lol, lol, lol...

[RocketDawg]

Costello got his Pick 6!

[magrooder]

There's the pick 6 we've been waiting on

[Irondawg]

Well I just realized that we basically look like what ark looked like on offense under Morris

If you don’t have a qb that can is really accurate and very decisive you get what we have the last 2 weeks

[msstate7]

9 ints

3 straight games with pick 6s

[Matt3467]

HAHAHA!!!!!!!

[VandelayIndustries]

Seriously just kneel

[ShotgunDawg]

You can't make this up

[defiantdog]

3 straight ****ing games

[mparkerfd20]

Laughing stock. F you Leach

[Percho]

That almost looked like munity.

[Statecoachingblows**]

We have to break some sort of a record at this point right?

[BeardoMSU]

Our team needs to collectively do Harakiri at the 50 yard line. Jesus Tapdancing Christ.

[Quaoarsking]

But why can't he adjust to the personnel this year? Why lose easily winnable games just to prove your offense can work the way you want it to? That's not what a good coach does.

I don't know what he can do. Our running game is godawful for whatever reason.

[Matt3467]

We have to break some sort of a record at this point right?

Yea Costello has to have gotten himself another record.

[hp22]

Oh wow

Lulz

Seriously that was the worst offensive performance I remember.

[PGHBulldogBG]

Neal Brown was I think 200 miles away in Troy won at LSU and Nebraska with Troy talent. Wanted our job but we took Moorhead. Took a WVU team last year that was supposed to win 2 games and won 5. Picked this year to win 4 and has a winning record so far. Good job Cohen

[LC Dawg]

I was typing that there is no way Costello has the head to do anything the rest of this game and that shit happened. Why the **** does Leach keep running him out there?

[DeputyDawg94]

I’m done. Can’t take anymore. Peace out ✌️ !!

[Matt3467]

Is State cursed?

[ZedFedder]

How can these guys have any confidence going forward?

[RocketDawg]

9 ints

3 straight games with pick 6s

That at least ties the NFL record according to another post. Don't know about college.

[defiantdog]

I'm watching the Bama game..... at least there's two decent teams playing

[Quaoarsking]

Time to put in Rogers and sling it deep.

[Statecoachingblows**]

Costello should have just played his last SEC down. If he hasn't then we are in trouble for years to come.

[99jc]

Leach will get this going

[vindastra]

The bigger question is how 3 guys are being 5 guys consistently. Didn't C34 tell that this OL is gonna be awesome this year?

[Joebob]

How do you spell inept?

[Matt3467]

Leach will get this going

I agree but this is a little entertaining tbh.

[parabrave]

I personally want to thank Bo Pellini because of his dumbshitness we would go 0-12 this year.

[dawgday166]

Ark embarrassed us
Kentucky embarrassed us
I'm quickly getting to the point where I won't be embarrassed bc I hate the direction of our program

Short spring. Totally new O. QB has a ton of flexibility to audible (are they or no?). Are QBs & WRs on same page making same reads? New QB (stares down his reads and throws off back foot, doesn't throw well on run). Had been injured before and is gun shy IMO. He's making bad decisions. Personally I'm bout ready to strangle KJ.

Young OTs that look confused half the time tonight too. They getting whipped.

Cupboard wasn't full either O or D when Leach showed up. Long term I think it'll be alright. KJ had open receivers last week and he just made bad reads that cost us the game. Leach can coach ... just gonna take a little time.

[EdDawg]

Well it looked like Cross at least sneezed on his guy.

[RocketDawg]

Costello gong for 4.

[LC Dawg]

I don't know KJ. He may be a great guy so I'm going to try not to bash him too hard but he may as well opt out and prepare for the draft at this point. We're playing 10 SEC games. There are no easy opportunities for him to gain his confidence back.

[Hypnodawg]

Wtf is this crap. How is Costello still in?

[HoopsDawg]

Oh wow

Lulz

Seriously that was the worst offensive performance I remember.

I think it's the worst ever. the worst I ever saw was 3-2 AU with Croom. But AU was good. This is UK. And we've basically thrown 2 pick 6's.

[defiantdog]

OM has 42 on Bama with a new O and a short spring. No excuses..... we simply suck.

[Statecoachingblows**]

Is State cursed?

Are you new to this? The answer is yes

[mparkerfd20]

Mike Leach giving a big f you to the fan base.

[hp22]

We playing 5 against 8

Those numbers arent going to work. The players at the LOS are completely taken out of the game.

Until we realize that and adjust, we could practice all an additional 100 times and not score routinely. The gameplan is pathetic.

I'm all on board throwing it 55 times a game. But the line of scrimmage has to be respected. Until it isnt, it's going to be ugly.

[HoopsDawg]

You're delusional.

[VandelayIndustries]

Don’t care if int happens throw it down the field

[LC Dawg]

It's a little early for Thanksgiving but I'm thankful that alcohol was invented.

[Quaoarsking]

You're delusional.

There's no doubt that this blows right now, but Leach has gotten every program rolling that he's ever been at. He will likely do so here too. Tonight has just been a really shitty all-around performance [from the offense].

[dawgday166]

OM has 42 on Bama with a new O and a short spring. No excuses..... we simply suck.

Not saying we don't suck and you have a point. Touche'. Still think we'll be fine long term.

[HoopsDawg]

hardly anyone went over to help KJ up. Not a good sign.

[msstate7]

hardly anyone went over to help KJ up. Not a good sign.

Probably hoping he doesn't

[defiantdog]

We're about to run the same play on 3rd and 4th fkwn

[99jc]

i still believe in Leach,,,this will work!

[msstate7]

I think it's the worst ever. the worst I ever saw was 3-2 AU with Croom. But AU was good. This is UK. And we've basically thrown 2 pick 6's.

Leach gave them short field in other td by trying a stupid fg

[Quaoarsking]

How is our OL so bad?

[Joebob]

Costello is so slow it's just unbelievable.

[DownwardDawg]

I hope the offense doesn't score a point.

[defiantdog]

I hope they score again

[HoopsDawg]

Probably hoping he doesn't

It just shows he doesn't have the respect of the team.

[Cooterpoot]

Let's cut Leach's pay due to Covid or just furlough his ass.

[msstate7]

How is our OL so bad?

Coaching

[msstate7]

Let's cut Leach's pay due to Covid or just furlough his ass.

Maybe he doesn't wear a mask in presser. Fire him with cause

[Quaoarsking]

Coaching

Mason Miller needs to be replaced then. Bad hire from Leach.

[HoopsDawg]

Let's cut Leach's pay due to Covid or just furlough his ass.

Maybe we can use the noose tweet to fire him for cause. He will probably sue, but we might be able to win or settle for a lot less.

[defiantdog]

Mason Miller needs to be replaced then. Bad hire from Leach.
The offense is on Leach..... the defense is playing with half the talent and killing it. Remember, we have no dbs..... they're gonna burn us every game

[KOdawg1]

Maybe we can use the noose tweet to fire him for cause. He will probably sue, but we might be able to win or settle for a lot less.

Consult with Texas Tech. They know the drill.

[99jc]

i cant believe you guys, just 2 weeks ago Leach was the best thing since sliced bread now your ready to fire him.

[msstate7]

We're gonna be obliterated the next 2 weeks.

[99jc]

We're gonna be obliterated the next 2 weeks.

time to make some $$$$$$$$$$$$$ then

[RougeDawg]

hardly anyone went over to help KJ up. Not a good sign.

Yep. Noticed that and no one helped him put his jersey back on his shoulder pad. He?s lost the offense. Defense is still playing tough.

[KOdawg1]

We're gonna be obliterated the next 2 weeks.

Staring 2-8 in the face

[LC Dawg]

SEC quarterbacks have to be tough no matter what offense you run. If Leach doesn't figure this out this offense will never work.

[msstate7]

i cant believe you guys, just 2 weeks ago Leach was the best thing since sliced bread now your ready to fire him.

Leach would be great vs man-to-man. The problem is no one is as stupid as pelini. Leach has been shut down by drop 8 zone vs Washington every time and 2 bad sec teams

[KOdawg1]

We're gonna be obliterated the next 2 weeks.

Staring 2-8 in the face

[hp22]

That was worse than 3-2. It really isnt close in my opinion.

The fact we have a guy that ran for 1400 yards and we refuse to give him the ball against a prevent defense just blows my mind.

I appreciate the effort the defense played with. Theh never let up.

If we dont change our approach, then it will continue to be ugly. Its like playing basketball against a defense with 8 players

[VandelayIndustries]

Great way to end the game

[Irondawg]

Yep we had the sec leading rusher last year and we are staring at 3 man lines and can’t run the ball down their throats

[Quaoarsking]

That was worse than 3-2. It really isnt close in my opinion.

He had 7 carries for 17 yards. Our OL can't run block for shit. It's not like Leach was unwilling to try it.

[Cowbell]

I'm gonna add that Kylin is way overrated. This tapping the helmet and limping off and all the juking is making his stock drop every game.

[Cowbell]

The reason we can't run the bell is because our running plays are obvious and aren't disguised well through play action. The linebackers have too much time to adjust and get upfield.

[HoopsDawg]

The reason we can't run the bell is because our running plays are obvious and aren't disguised well through play action. The linebackers have too much time to adjust and get upfield.

And you can't run the ball with 3 foot splits.

[RocketDawg]

Everybody watching the end of the Bama/OM game? Bama guy going to be out for targeting.

[Quaoarsking]

And you can't run the ball with 3 foot splits.

Leach generally has had a much better running game than this with much worse RBs than Kylin.

[PGHBulldogBG]

If you combine the ole miss offense and miss state defense now that?s a team

[maroonmania]

I'm gonna add that Kylin is way overrated. This tapping the helmet and limping off and all the juking is making his stock drop every game.

Hate to say it but I wouldn't draft him. He won't last 5 games in the NFL 16 game season. He is getting hurt on plays where its just a normal tackle and him just hitting the ground.

[SailingDawg]

If you combine the ole miss offense and miss state defense now that?s a team

If we combined our schools/teams, we'd be competitive in the SEC. Our combined athletic budget would be in line with the top SEC programs.

[Matt3467]

I'm gonna add that Kylin is way overrated. This tapping the helmet and limping off and all the juking is making his stock drop every game.

I agree. He's good but he's not better than most of the backs we've had here over the last 10 years. He's too fragile to be a 1st rounder. He was put on a pedestal for his offseason SJW actions. He was even on the heisman watch list by some.

[State82]

How do you spell inept?

L-E-A-C-H

[DLGDawg]

The reason we can't run the bell is because our running plays are obvious and aren't disguised well through play action. The linebackers have too much time to adjust and get upfield.

Exactly. That big ole gap closes quick. Drop 8, and defend one running play!!!!!

[ScoobaDawg]

T-minus 1.5 hours till kickoff.

I want see us throw quicker passes early in the game tonight to the RBs and WRs until KY is forced to come up on our WRs and utilizes LBs to stop passes to the RBs.

Will be terribly disappointed if we come out flat tonight after laying a turn last week

we suck.
we lost.

ugh.

[BulldogBear]

Don?t care if int happens throw it down the field

Well, we're throwing them anyway. So why not?

[BulldogBear]

Let's cut Leach's pay due to Covid or just furlough his ass.

Let's just make sure the next contract we sign with him or any other coach includes a clause that says for every turnover by a graduate transfer, said coach's salary is reduced by $10k per anum.
