LIBERTY BOWL GAME THREAD

[KOdawg1]

T minus 25 minutes.

[Catfish]

T minus 25 minutes.

This one is personal for Leach, so if he can blow them out, he'll do it. We'll see how possible that is with the Covid guys we have out.

Been waiting for this game for awhile. Let's go!

[KOdawg1]

No Crumedy, Jalen Green, or Shawn Preston

[KOdawg1]

No Scott Lashley either

[Leeshouldveflanked]

No Lashley, Odom or Charlton it appears

[BrunswickDawg]

CJK5H!

[Catfish]

CJK5H!

LOL

[BrunswickDawg]

Scooby Ford and Ra Ra are back

[KOdawg1]

According to Rosebowl...

These are the players out:

On offense, Scott Lashley

On defense, Jaden Crumedy, Randy Charlton, Jack Harris, Aaron Odom, Jalen Green, Shawn Preston, Dylan Lawrence, Kyle Cass

[Tater]

CJK5H!

**** that grifter, his son, and everything they stand for, but thanks for giving us Mike Leach in a roundabout way.

[Hambone]

Scooby is not playing https://twitter.com/afkostka/status/1475971281606615046?s=21

[BrunswickDawg]

Scooby is not playing https://twitter.com/afkostka/status/1475971281606615046?s=21

Rosebowl reported that Scooby is. Guess we will see

[ShotgunDawg]

Let's Go

The 2022 will get deeper today. Lot's of young players getting experience

[Vandownbytheriver]

Deuce calling the game. Will be the first time I've heard him on a broadcast. I actually played on a all star team that went to state growing up. Always was a good dude.

[ShotgunDawg]

Deuce McAlister.... really?

[Percho]

Deuce McAlister.... really?

Sounds like he will do a good job.

[KOdawg1]

Damn it's loud

[parabrave]

And Deuce Mac as the TV announcer. Thanks ESPN/ Duece sucks as the Saints Color analyst

[maroonmania]

Do folks really just like to tick off MSU fans? Deuce McAllister doing the color on our game? Wasn't even aware that he was in broadcasting but to get assigned the MSU game? You can't make this stuff up.

[ShotgunDawg]

A&M would've cancelled with 10 major contributors out

[maroonmania]

A&M would've cancelled with 10 major contributors out

Do we know why they are out? Is it all COVID related?

[ShotgunDawg]

Good ole Liberty Bowl acoustics & sound system there

[ShotgunDawg]

Do we know why they are out? Is it COVID related?

That, Cross, Emerson, & Heath's car accident

[KOdawg1]

They're gonna test us on the ground with us having so many out

[Msujd164]

Several guys out on D and we defer? Strange.

[ShotgunDawg]

our defense may suck today. I'm worried about alignment issues with this many guys out.

[maroonmania]

That, Cross, Emerson, & Heath's car accident

Well we already knew about those 3 before tonight.

[ShotgunDawg]

They're gonna test us on the ground with us having so many out

I'm worried about DL alignment

[Dawgology]

If we are missing 8 starters on defense we are pretty much screwed so oh well

[parabrave]

Dam no tackling.

[msstate7]

We playing some bang up run D

[maroonmania]

Is there anyone left on the team that can tackle? We are going to get our asses kicked.

[ShotgunDawg]

Whew boy. Not sure we can stop the run with this crew

[KOdawg1]

Well...not good

[magrooder]

Sure looked like a ton of guys out on D that drive.

[MoreCowbell]

Great start. We look really engaged and focused

[parabrave]

I know we are missing the DL but the guys playing need to nut up

[msstate7]

If we are missing 8 starters on defense we are pretty much screwed so oh well

Well, let's play a big 12 shoot out. No excuses for the offense

[Dawgology]

Thanks NCAA. At least we are all safe!!!!!

[Maverick91]

Well they just ran through us like baby formula.

[SailingDawg]

And Deuce Mac as the TV announcer. Thanks ESPN/ Duece sucks as the Saints Color analyst

Deuce is a great analyst, but he says ?in that certain situation?? too much.

Not a good start, Lois.

[ShotgunDawg]

I'm not even mad. We'll figure some things out on defense. Just gotta match scores with them till we figure things out

[starkvegasdawg]

Arnett better figure something out.

[RocketDawg]

Well, that didn't start so well ....

[ShotgunDawg]

I know we are missing the DL but the guys playing need to nut up

They will. Just gotta find their footing

[HoopsDawg]

Best not to punt....

[maroonmania]

Thanks NCAA. At least we are all safe!!!!!

The Texas Tech runners are definitely safe because they are not getting hit.

[Maverick91]

I think our defense will figure it out. They just need to nut up and tackle.

[PendingTransaction]

Jett can go get one more Big Mac at halftime , then come out in the third and put his hand in the dirt.

[ShotgunDawg]

Have we practiced in a month? LOL

[magrooder]

DJ running hard

[ShotgunDawg]

Big 1st down there

[parabrave]

Well 34 will like the start of this drive.

[ShotgunDawg]

Keep running. Keeps our depleted defense off the field

[parabrave]

Williams $$$

[ShotgunDawg]

I think Will read that one wrong presnap

[ShotgunDawg]

That's why Tulu doesn't play more. Too many mistakes

[KOdawg1]

We're 17ed

[maroonmania]

That's why Tulu doesn't play more. Too many mistakes

Apparently he needs a new pair of cleats.

[Lord McBuckethead]

Well the Liberty Bowl Turf 17n sucks yet again.

[ShotgunDawg]

Tulu just makes too many mistakes. Playmaker for sure, but I don't wanna hear how he need more touches

[Maverick91]

Griffin better change his shoes. Slipped twice.

[ShotgunDawg]

Apparently he needs a new pair of cleats.

And hands in the Egg Bowl, & route running, etc.

He just clearly struggles to put it all together.

[BayouDawg]

Maybe the defense can tackle this drive

[WhiskeyPirate]

Tulu just makes too many mistakes. Playmaker for sure, but I don't wanna hear how he need more touches

Will doesn’t look too good either

[Dawg496]

Why the hell do we fall down so much?

[Lord McBuckethead]

Alright, can we call a 17n timeout and wake our men the 17 up? Defense missed 8 tackles on one drive. They look like they just ate Thanksgiving dinner. Wake the 17 UP!

[mparkerfd20]

Look like dog shit on both sides so far.

[Leeshouldveflanked]

Them Adidas Soccer cleats ain?t working so well.

[Bothrops]

Who's playing DL besides Russell?

[HoopsDawg]

Tulu just makes too many mistakes. Playmaker for sure, but I don't wanna hear how he need more touches

agree. I think he should be moved to corner. potential pro.

[Tater]

And hands in the Egg Bowl, & route running, etc.

He just clearly struggles to put it all together.

Almost like he's a covid freshman with 3 years of eligibility and he's making fixable mistakes that go away with experience. A theme you aren't understanding this week for some reason.

[Lord McBuckethead]

Remember the last time we played in the Liberty bowl when the turf wasn?t fluffed for like a month prior to the game, this one looks just as bad. I mean, it takes two hours to fluff this damn thing.

[ShotgunDawg]

Will doesn’t look too good either

He'll be fine. Game speed take a few minutes for your eyes to adjust

[Turfdawg67]

Tulu just makes too many mistakes. Playmaker for sure, but I don't wanna hear how he need more touches

Just hush... you're embarrassing yourself again.

[ShotgunDawg]

Why the hell do we fall down so much?

Lack of body control

[Lord McBuckethead]

Who's playing DL besides Russell?

No one. Bet the defense had a party about 5 days ago.

[CaptainObvious]

Huh? The first slip by Tulu, Will?s pass was perfectly located. A WR laying on the ground ain?t getting to that. His first pass to 10 was hot but should have been caught. That pass right there was well covered.

[mparkerfd20]

Just hush... you're embarrassing yourself again.

Truth hurts your feelings?

[maroonmania]

Why the hell do we fall down so much?

Seriously, I could get good yardage against this defense we have out there.

[ShotgunDawg]

Almost like he's a covid freshman with 3 years of eligibility and he's making fixable mistakes that go away with experience. A theme you aren't understanding this week for some reason.

Hey man, I'm just responding to those that say he needs more touches. I never he said he couldn't improve

[magrooder]

DL getting their ass kicked

[KOdawg1]

Just hush... you're embarrassing yourself again.

He tends to do that

[Dawgology]

This games over before it started. Oh well. Sucks to always suck.

[ShotgunDawg]

Boy this is embarrassing. Our DTs can't be this bad

[HoopsDawg]

Seriously, I could get good yardage against this defense we have out there.

Something fans are overlooking...we need a transfer portal LB.

[R2Dawg]

Well oh Leach got them ready to play tonight.

[ShotgunDawg]

Wow. Total PI on us

[HoopsDawg]

bad call by Arnett there rushing 3.

[msstate7]

Rush 3, lol

[Turfdawg67]

Truth hurts your feelings?

No, just stupid comments do. Slipping is a clear issue moron.

[R2Dawg]

Ain't got to worry about Arnett going anywhere

[Saltydog]

Our guys just look like they don't give a ****. We are wussing out already.

[ShotgunDawg]

Impressive pass rush right there....

[Bdawg]

Averaging 11 yards per carry!! Ouch. Getting gashed!!

[Maverick91]

Alright this run game has got to be stopped

[KOdawg1]

Just getting our asses whooped on the LOS

[CaptainObvious]

Wrong team favored. No defense means no win.

[msstate7]

Saints last night ravaged by Covid and now this, jeez

[mparkerfd20]

We will lose this one by 35

[State82]

Gonna be a long, long night. 17ed by Covid.

[maroonmania]

I seriously won't be watching this much longer if something doesn't change. 10-15 yard runs right up the middle time after time is ridiculous.

[parabrave]

Well if its legal do it/

[Dawgology]

This is why Arnett isn’t going anywhere. Somehow magically TT doesn’t lose any to Covid but we do. Great management!!!! Top tier program. Lmao

[mparkerfd20]

Nm

[Msujd164]

Lol There were people wondering ?how bad Leach would run up the score?

[lastmajordog]

@$$ kicking so far......come on ?DOGS?...!!!!!

[Lord McBuckethead]

I do not want to see our guys faking injuries. 17n man up and figure it out fellas. Right now, TT is making us swallow their D

[starkvegasdawg]

Tech going to have 800 yards rushing at this rate.

[ShotgunDawg]

Dear Arnett,

Their running for 15 yards a pop. How about we stop that & make them do something else.

Sincerely,

'Gun

[Turfdawg67]

Well oh Leach got them ready to play tonight.

Well look who showed up again. See Fishdawg, this is one of those "fans" I was talking about the other day.

[Bothrops]

Our defensive depth is like Southern Miss

[parabrave]

Impressive pass rush right there....

Sorry Gun but so far even you can't pit lipstick on this crapfest

[msstate7]

Can't wait to hear Molinar and brooks are Covid positive tomorrow**

[WhiskeyPirate]

How fricking hard is it to sell out to the run and load the box ? Arnett isn’t showing much here

[BayouDawg]

I dont care how many are out due to Covid. This effort is shit.

[bulldawg28]

Come on Jett!

[ShotgunDawg]

How did Tech avoid COVID?

[NCMSTFAN]

I know we are missing guys but this start is ridiculous. They look bigger, faster and stronger than us. Gonna be a long night if this continues

[WhiskeyPirate]

I’d like to see how many guys are out from tech with COVID, if the answer is zero then I smell bullshit

[Tater]

Auburn game vibes.

Slight misfires on offense. Defense being beat by effort alone.

[Bothrops]

Can't wait to hear Molinar and brooks are Covid positive tomorrow**

We won't win anyway

[starkvegasdawg]

Y'all just see in the ticker John Madden died?

[Maverick91]

Alright if our second team dline is this bad. Man!

[parabrave]

How did Tech avoid COVID?

Didn't test**

[RocketDawg]

Looking as bad as we've looked all year.

[sleepy dawg]

This is par for the course guys. We'll get it together with about 8 minutes left.

[msstate7]

We won't win anyway

Maybe. Favored by Vegas and BPI

[ShotgunDawg]

Y'all just see in the ticker John Madden died?

Damn. Glad he got his film the other day

[msstate7]

Big stop

[parabrave]

Y'all just see in the ticker John Madden died?

No Shit. He must've been sick the last week there has been alot of Madden tributes on ESPN and FOX.

[maroonmania]

Well, we are following our normal game script and that is being down by double digits before we even start playing.

[ShotgunDawg]

That's a win by the defense. Maybe it'll build some confidence

[Maroonthirteen]

Lol There were people wondering ?how bad Leach would run up the score?

You knew when Robertson and Hadad were talking that smack this week.... it wasn't happening.

[ShotgunDawg]

our course Tech has an automatic FG kicker. We seem to be the only team that never has one

[starkvegasdawg]

Rain just knocked out my direct tv. Just great.

[CaptainObvious]

Hope we don?t have Louisiana Tech on the schedule in near future with Sonny Cumbie going there as Head Coach. 😳

[KOdawg1]

We need to figure out why we start games so slow and fix it.

It's damn near every game.

[R2Dawg]

Not the way to finish the year.

[State82]

Y'all just see in the ticker John Madden died?

Damn! Didn't see that. That sucks!

[maroonmania]

That's a win by the defense. Maybe it'll build some confidence

Bad when a win for the defense is allowing an 80 yard drive for points.

[R2Dawg]

We need to figure out why we start games so slow and fix it.

It's damn near every game.

We ain't never ready to play. That is coaching sorry.

[State82]

Rain just knocked out my direct tv. Just great.

I wish mine would get knocked out.

[Bdawg]

We have to score now!!

[KOdawg1]

That damn Tulu sucks*

[Bothrops]

We ain't never ready to play. That is coaching sorry.

It's a Leach trademark apparently, 2nd half team.

[Lord McBuckethead]

Dammit. Polk went down.

[BayouDawg]

We ain't never ready to play. That is coaching sorry.

It is. No need to apologize

[maroonmania]

Did we not realize the game tonight was on artificial turf and wear the wrong shoes?

[Saltydog]

We won't win anyway

He won't like you questioning the Wizard of Westwood.........

[CaptainObvious]

Can we sue Memphis for injuries to our receivers caused by Field Conditions?

[Bdawg]

Jeez what a block 84!!! Damn

[maroonmania]

Glad we got fired up for this one to defend Leach's honor.***

[HoopsDawg]

awful block attempt by RaRa then possible wrong route

[Turfdawg67]

Oh how about that. Tulu switches cleats and makes a great play. Lolz... As I said, moronic comments.

[Bdawg]

84 again. Not sitting down in zone

[KOdawg1]

Damn good play

[BayouDawg]

Get Thomas out the damn game. He gives shit effort on a block and then runs the wrong damn route.

[ShotgunDawg]

Tulu sabotaged the first drive and Ra Ra almost sabotaged the 2nd

[LC Dawg]

Does TT have any players out with Covid? If not, how the **** does this happen?

[Lord McBuckethead]

I wish mine would get knocked out.

ESPN app.

[Tater]

Well gun gotta eat some crow after that last play.

[ShotgunDawg]

Get Thomas out the damn game. He gives shit effort on a block and then runs the wrong damn route.

Looks like a guy that’s been hurt and hasn’t practiced.

[HoopsDawg]

Tulu sabotaged the first drive and Ra Ra almost sabotaged the 2nd

That's why we are after a transfer portal WR to play that spot.

[ShotgunDawg]

Oh how about that. Tulu switches cleats and makes a great play. Lolz... As I said, moronic comments.

No one said he isn’t capable. He obviously is. It’s the consistency that’s a problem.

[Tater]

Tulu sabotaged the first drive and Ra Ra almost sabotaged the 2nd

How about that pocket movement and accuracy on the run?

Also his mid game leadership.

You need to rethink your QB takes.

[parabrave]

TULU changed his cleats before the last K/O according to Matt.

[ShotgunDawg]

Well gun gotta eat some crow after that last play.

That was better. We’ll find out if he can like that vs Bama or OM next year

[ShotgunDawg]

How about that pocket movement and accuracy on the run?

Also his mid game leadership.

You need to rethink your QB takes.

You’re an asshole. Please no more responding to my posts.

You’re looking at one play dipshit. It’s about an entire season

[msstate7]

He won't like you questioning the Wizard of Westwood.........

Hope you crying tomorrow night after we start 1-0

[msstate7]

Nice pass

[KOdawg1]

Boom

[ShotgunDawg]

Ra Ra back

[Bdawg]

84 totally redeems himself!!

[HoopsDawg]

Wow, what a throw.

[Tater]

You’re an asshole. Please no more responding to my posts.

You’re looking at one play dipshit. It’s about an entire season

SiT rA Ra ThOmAs

[maroonmania]

And we made a kick!!

[BayouDawg]

Tomas! Making me look dumb! I love it!

[bostondawg]

Lol then Thomas says FU to everyone in this thread. Unreal play.

[ShotgunDawg]

Ra Ra is a TD machine. Can use his body as well as any WR we’ve got

I swear 50% of his catches this year are TDs

[Bdawg]

Thank you for scoring now

[parabrave]

Get Thomas out the damn game. He gives shit effort on a block and then runs the wrong damn route.

UMMMMMMMM.

[Dawgology]

Great pass there

[Turfdawg67]

Hahahahaha! Talk about some more of our players!! It's working great!

[starkvegasdawg]

Now it's time to play defense.

[Bothrops]

Ra Ra has put up good stuff for a Trf

[PCHSDawg]

Didn't Polk catch his 100th pass on that drive?

[Tater]

UMMMMMMMM.

and that's why people on this board don't coach, much less be trusted to have an opinion on important matters.

[Bdawg]

Tomas! Making me look dumb! I love it!

No, he effed up twice but made a great play to help offset them.

[parabrave]

More importantly the drive gave the Def some needed rest. Hopefully some asses got chewed on the sidelines

[Turfdawg67]

Tomas! Making me look dumb! I love it!

Don't worry, this thread has a plethora of dumb comments. Good thing is a few others have creeped back under their rock.

[KOdawg1]

Didn't Polk catch his 100th pass on that drive?

Believe so

[Tater]

Hahahahaha! Talk about some more of our players!! It's working great!

Our entire defense couldn't tackle anyone in a phone booth. Our kickers have legs the size of mcnuggets. And the refs smell of elderberries

[ShotgunDawg]

Like what I’m seeing from our OTs right now

[Tater]

Don't worry, this thread has a plethora of dumb comments. Good thing is a few others have creeped back under their rock.

I have not because it's pretty clear what was happening. Almost like people forgot what watching a Mississippi State game is like. First quarter = Flat. Will looked great though.

Also their WRs are holding every play. Gotta play through it

[KOdawg1]

Alright, here we go boys

[Bdawg]

Hell yeah D!!!!!

[ShotgunDawg]

There we go

[parabrave]

Hold em here guys/ There we go.

[ShotgunDawg]

A zero blitz worked. Lol.

[KOdawg1]

Like what I’m seeing from our OTs right now

Nick Jones is more than holding his own. Very encouraging so far.

[LC Dawg]

Great job by the defense.
Hopefully Arnett is not back in play for other schools.***

[Bothrops]

Nick Jones is more than holding his own. Very encouraging so far.

Yes

[parabrave]

BB game up to 4 PM.

[CaptainObvious]

I have to respond to the question about why Texas Tech didn?t have Covid issues.

Covid cannot find Lubbock, Texas. There. That?s the real reason.

[Tater]

Looks like we got some effort now. Another good drive led by Will here and we'll be really cooking.

Zero Blitz worked because this QB is not great at his progressions. Raw mentally, great athletically. Take his first and second option away and he's not gonna do much.

Haven't had to say Richardson's name yet. This game is giving me serious Kentucky vibes in how it's going. Except instead of a bs punt return it was just bad defense first drive.

Richardson might start next year even with our transfers. I'd love to see Banks and Nicholson be able to be safeties or depth and Richardson win the starting job. Does wonders for recruiting imo. And would make the defense stout.

[Turfdawg67]

Our entire defense couldn't tackle anyone in a phone booth. Our kickers have legs the size of mcnuggets. And the refs smell of elderberries

Ha! We'll played...

[KOdawg1]

Dolla Bill just tore everything in that leg

[ShotgunDawg]

Hate the play call there. Will has to check out of that

[parabrave]

Dam Dolla Bill is down.

[StateDawg44]

Dam Dolla Bill is down.

That looked pretty bad.

[Lord McBuckethead]

I have to say, running up the middle when you need 2 yards is retarded for our offense. We are gaining 4 yards per carry off tackle. Why did we make that play call?

[CaptainObvious]

Not good.

And a bad 3 and out after a big defensive stop.

[parabrave]

Dolla Bill just tore everything in that leg

Now this is why I don't blame Cross

[Lord McBuckethead]

That looked pretty bad.

Yep. That was a full roll. Hope nothing is damaged, but I doubt we see him again for a while. That looked like something that would keep you out for a while.

[BayouDawg]

UMMMMMMMM.

I owned up to my idiocy

[ShotgunDawg]

Awful call

That’s the refs calling something they didn’t see. Altering a game

[Bdawg]

What the hell was that call

[magrooder]

Forbes is a player

[mparkerfd20]

What a bullshit penalty

[vindastra]

Now we have blind referees too

[trob115]

BB game up to 4 PM.

Did they give a reason why?

[ShotgunDawg]

What is it with this stadium and terrible calls?

[Tater]

Emmanuel Forbes could play on Sunday right now

[Saltydog]

Deuce McAllister is just horrible......Where's Dave Rowe when you need him?

[LC Dawg]

False start?
I guess we should have known to wear lube in this stadium.

[parabrave]

Did they give a reason why?

Nope

[ShotgunDawg]

Deuce McAllister is just horrible......Where's Dave Rowe when you need him?

He’s dumb. Has nothing to say

[parabrave]

Deuce McAllister is just horrible......Where's Dave Rowe when you need him?

Now you know what we got to deal with on Saints radio/ He is terrible.

[ShotgunDawg]

False start?
I guess we should have known to wear lube in this stadium.

I’m a little surprised that the booth can’t initiate a review on that.

[Saltydog]

What is it with this stadium and shitty execution?

[msstate7]

BB game up to 4 PM.

What?

[msstate7]

Did they give a reason why?

Covid is nocturnal

[BayouDawg]

I don?t like this big 12 team pushing our shit in on the los

[vindastra]

Did Arnett signal them to do some fisting?

[ShotgunDawg]

Terrible coverage

[LC Dawg]

That's a fumble.

[Statecoachingblows**]

Let's gooooo!

[Bdawg]

Wow huge play.

[ShotgunDawg]

That’s a fumble

[vindastra]

Wow, ref made the right call?

[parabrave]

Good hustle Defense. Wheat and Russell for getting it

[Bdawg]

May be ok since they called it fumble on the field

[magrooder]

incomplete pass

[starkvegasdawg]

Got to stay a fumble.

[vindastra]

These commentators can shut up.

[KOdawg1]

I think the arm is going forward

[Saltydog]

I fully expect them to screw us and say it's an incomplete pass.....

[parabrave]

Matt says don't be surprised on it being a pass.

[KOdawg1]

That's the right call.
