MSU/LSU Game thread

[msstate7]

Our D is good

[KOdawg1]

Our defense deserves better

[R2Dawg]

Need a drive before half and some sort of score.

[vindastra]

Austin Williams would have fair catched that

[Percho]

you guys act like we are playing against air

[msstate7]

Thank God, leach didn't use Austin on PR. He's terrible

[KOdawg1]

#16 Page can get the credit on that one. Mirrored Daniels and didn't let him out of the pocket

[EdwardDrayton]

Zavion Thomas is a dude!!

[msstate7]

Austin Williams would have fair catched that

He's trash. He's who you use against Jackson st. We need a game changer Vs good teams

[KOdawg1]

you guys act like we are playing against air

No one is acting like that

[Rahdawg]

Need a drive before half and some sort of score.

Yes indeed

[RocketDawg]

We've had pretty good field position just about every time. Need to cash in on it now.

[Matt3467]

He's trash. He's who you use against Jackson st. We need a game changer Vs good teams

Wow. I wouldn't say that. Williams is dependable. At least he doesn't muff.

[KOdawg1]

Gotta find a way to score here. Idc if it's a FG, just score and then get the ball back to start the half

[ZedFedder]

Need a TD here. Especially since we get the ball after half.

[BhamDawg]

Wish we had a damn kicker, 3 would be huge right here.

[RocketDawg]

Wonder if AT&T is gaining any customers with LeBron advertising for them ....

[preachermatt83]

Our defense is playing ball. If we had an o-line we would be tough

[CaptainObvious]

No one is acting like that

We know we are playing against 4 star defenders. The issue is they game planned our offense and we probs my planned on facing a 3 front, drop 8.

[RocketDawg]

Wish we had a damn kicker, 3 would be huge right here.

Need a TD and I think we're going to get it.

[KOdawg1]

Good play call there

[preachermatt83]

Beautiful play call right there

[msstate7]

Wow. I wouldn't say that. Williams is dependable. At least he doesn't muff.

You don't win games at tiger stadium playing safe

[Rahdawg]

Dillon Johnson is a beast

[preachermatt83]

Man he has to catch that

[RocketDawg]

Heckuva a catch by Thomas,.

[preachermatt83]

Holy smokes what a catch

[KOdawg1]

WHAT A CATCH

[msstate7]

Td!!! Attack!!!

[R2Dawg]

That is how you take back the game. D stall out before half and we get ball in 3rd

[preachermatt83]

Y’all keep talking about leach. He’s a freaking genius.

[RocketDawg]

Whoa - we made a PAT!

[Matt3467]

You don't win games at tiger stadium playing safe

I was referring to the statement calling him trash.

[EdwardDrayton]

RA RA DE BOOM DEE AY!!!

[preachermatt83]

The MAD SCIENTIST

[msstate7]

Great pass! Great catch!

[KOdawg1]

Y'all wanna know who the MVP of that play was? Dillon Johnson.

Picked up the blitz and allowed Will to make that throw. Helluva job

[LC Dawg]

That's the ****ing way to do it offense!

[Rahdawg]

Great throw and great catch perfect timing

[ZedFedder]

RaRa is an NFL wideout.

[vindastra]

Johnson did his job protecting Will

[BulldogBear]

No man to man does not beat the air raid. It can work situationally. A play. A drive. Not as your gamepla. That's a fool's errand.. It always succumbs eventually unless it's Bama and ULM or something.

[starkvegasdawg]

Now no end of half defensive lapse.

[State82]

Big league

[msstate7]

I was referring to the statement calling him trash.
He isn't trash, I apologize, but he is he the safe route. He doesn't win games. Wr need guys that can change games, not be the safe route

[RocketDawg]

Now no end of half defensive lapse.

They're moving the ball. Playing prevent? I'd rather they not get a FG.

[R2Dawg]

Why now we play soft?

[starkvegasdawg]

Just letting them march right down the field.

[Matt3467]

Can't spy Daniels with Jett but maybe we don't really have an option

[ZedFedder]

Hold them to a FG.

[R2Dawg]

Now no end of half defensive lapse.

Right on schedule

[starkvegasdawg]

Need a pick 6.

[RocketDawg]

Geez they're not going to get a FG - it'll be a TD.

[BeardoMSU]

Great...

[vindastra]

Bad defensive series

[mparkerfd20]

Way to break D. FFS!!!

[starkvegasdawg]

That series was pure trash. Pathetic.

[RocketDawg]

At least we get the ball after the half. That was not a good defensive series there.

[ZedFedder]

Our D was gassed.

[magrooder]

Did not need to give up that td right before the half. Now they think they're in it still.

[R2Dawg]

Dumb, dumb, dumb.

We are Mississippi State.

[CadaverDawg]

Prevent defense, prevents you from winning. Now they have all the momentum and know he can scramble and beat us. We may have lost the game on that drive

[HancockCountyDog]

Hold them to a FG.

How we don?t have a safety as a spy is beyond me.

Asking Jett or Watson to spy him is useless.

[Bothrops]

Tempo change made a difference for them

[ZedFedder]

Tulu, take one to the house

[starkvegasdawg]

Give those stupid corn dogs all the momentum at the half.

[EdwardDrayton]

Just like us. Can’t stand prosperity.

[preachermatt83]

OUTSIDE CONTAINED!?!?! Geez

[RocketDawg]

Loss of momentum. It's up to Leach and Arnette to get them going again.

[Dawgology]

If it see prevent defense one more ****ing time this season.

[CaptainObvious]

They took advantage of our Bull rush with the QB scrambles because Bull rushing can?t contain.

[R2Dawg]

Our D was gassed.

They shouldn't have been

[Matt3467]

We have no speed at LB. Man we could use a Richie Brown, Gerri Green type of backer.

[preachermatt83]

How we don?t have a safety as a spy is beyond me.

Asking Jett or Watson to spy him is useless.
Completely insane. They aren’t fast enough

[R2Dawg]

Our D let up before half. LSU QB scrambling is their best play call

[LC Dawg]

That's why you don't need the multiple shitty drives from our offense.
We've got time to answer. Leach needs to be aggressive.

[Apoplectic]

And shitty tackling

[Dawgology]

We completely abandoned our defense that series hoping to keep them out of the end zone for two minutes. SMH. I really wonder sometimes

[R2Dawg]

We have no speed at LB. Man we could use a Richie Brown, Gerri Green type of backer.

They were not that fast but give me Matt Wells - Cheetah

[EdwardDrayton]

We looked gassed against the up tempo.

[BulldogBear]

How many on here knew that would happen before the first snap of the drive. Seen it a thousand times.

I've been confident the whole game. But why does this feel like the kind of game dominate the whole time, but don't pull away? Then they do just enough.

[CadaverDawg]

Jett Johnson spying Daniels is a ridiculously bad defensive strategy

[Matt3467]

They were not that fast but give me Matt Wells - Cheetah

Yea Wells was quick. I think Brown was a 4.4 though?

[LC Dawg]

They shouldn't have been
Yeah, they definitely looked gas but I don't know why they would be.

[Matt3467]

Jetts probably running a 4.9 or 5. Love his instincts but the boy is slow. Wheat and Watson isn't much faster.

[CadaverDawg]

That would have been a long run for Woody if the OL just bumped that guy. Shit

[State82]

Jett Johnson spying Daniels is a ridiculously bad defensive strategy
We will get our asses kicked doing that. And we may regardless.

[Activated Alpha]

Wish our O didn?t go to shit after the first drive. Looked like this was going to be an easy game

[CadaverDawg]

Damn it. This offense is such trash on short yardage

[RocketDawg]

They have time to score again.

[CadaverDawg]

I'll take 13-7, but man it should be 13-0 and us getting the ball first

[RocketDawg]

OK, halftime and time to regroup.

[R2Dawg]

1st and 5 and we can't get a first down. Our O is lethal.

[EdwardDrayton]

Where’s this third year Mike Leach offense we’ve been told about

[R2Dawg]

We should be up like 28-0

[KOdawg1]

We're the better team, but bad play calling, poor reads, poor blocking, holding onto the ball too long, and a dropped pass have allowed them to still be in this game.

[BlackSailsDawg]

Ok ok ok ok...

We get the ball first and this is our first major test. Test meaning that have a defense. I'm seeing looks we have never seen. AND WE ARE WINNING!!!

No road game in the SEC is going to be easy and we all know that.


We now have to have our OL dominate. As we talked about throughout the week. Our weakness on defense is speed to the edges. Daniels flat out ran us to it.



So how do we finish? I believe it's to keep the ball out of the hands of LSU's offense as much as possible. That means those short catches have to be made.

[Tater]

Up 13-7 on the road at LSU and we're largely playing very bad and fans are mad / disappointed.

I like the trajectory of our program.

[BlackSailsDawg]

I'll take 13-7, but man it should be 13-0 and us getting the ball first

The dropped pass hurts because LSU doesn't get the ball back.

[R2Dawg]

Up 13-7 on the road at LSU and we're largely playing very bad and fans are mad / disappointed.

I like the trajectory of our program.

I hear what you are saying but this ain't nothing new. We been here before. Time to get it done. A half to right some wrongs.

[CadaverDawg]

The dropped pass hurts because LSU doesn't get the ball back.

Yep

[BlackSailsDawg]

I'll take 13-7, but man it should be 13-0 and us getting the ball first

We will see what we are made of.

[Goldendawg]

Our LB's don't have much speed. They must be blanketing our receivers. We have made poor reads/calls with 6-7 in the box. I hate a prevent D before the half or last possession of a game. Score TD opening drive of 2nd half and I will feel better. That missed XP really concerns me. We are ahead at LSU, stay ahead.

[R2Dawg]

Wow Missouri St. beating Ark 7-0

[CaptainObvious]

I am not sure that prevent was the issue as much as their WR?s all going 15 to 25 yards downfield pulling our safeties with them leaving open fields for Daniels to do his best Manziel imitation. I wouldn?t be surprised if their Of Coordinator planned that, sending everybody deep and letting Daniels improvise when their Oline pushed our guys past him. Daniels took advantage of our 5 or 6 guys getting locked up in hand to hand combat.

LB's can't keep up with him either.

Yep that is exactly what happened. LSU did this with FSU too and it worked. We gonna have to go man and bring safety up to stop it.

[Bothrops]

Need some points on the opening drive. We grow up here.

[RocketDawg]

Wow Missouri St. beating Ark 7-0

And the game's not even televised, unless it's ESPN+. You'd think every Top 10 team would be televised every week regardless of who they play.

[magrooder]

Got away with a hold on that play

[vindastra]

Johnson is a bad man

[RocketDawg]

Too many dropped passes.

[magrooder]

come on rara we need those

[vindastra]

We need to get proper WRs

[CadaverDawg]

Cannot miss that

[KOdawg1]

We're about to lose. 17ing pathetic

[Bdawg]

Are we going to keeping dropping balls?

[starkvegasdawg]

What the hell is up with our receivers tonight?

[R2Dawg]

Now we can't anything.

[CaptainObvious]

These dropped passes!.,!?cvmbxbm!!!!!!!!

[CadaverDawg]

We probably just lost

[RocketDawg]

Another good punt. Wonder if he can do kicking too.

[R2Dawg]

What the hell is up with our receivers tonight?

They were not ready for Death Valley IMO In their heads.

[CaptainObvious]

Wasted series coming out of half.

[RocketDawg]

Where's Ducking tonight? He's been silent.

[State82]

We ain't winning this game. The narrative of us being much better than LSU was bullshit.

[BeardoMSU]

Jesus...here we go

[R2Dawg]

We about to lose this game.

[Bdawg]

Now they wearing our edges out!!

[CadaverDawg]

Can't F around for a half and expect to win in Death Valley. We're beat

[starkvegasdawg]

We're done.

[BeardoMSU]

Where's Ducking tonight? He's been silent.

He just had a drop

[RocketDawg]

Our first penalty I believe. They're gonna score.

[Bothrops]

Don't lose composure.

[RocketDawg]

He just had a drop

Thought that was Thomas.

[R2Dawg]

We ain't winning this game. The narrative of us being much better than LSU was bullshit.

I'm not sure about that. We ain't playing MSU football tonight plain and simple. Yes some is LSU but we crap the bed like MSU does. I may never believe again in MSU. Unreal. We all saw this coming.

[Dawgology]

We about to get run off the field. All over but the crying

[CaptainObvious]

Defense out of sinc

[KOdawg1]

We ain't winning this game. The narrative of us being much better than LSU was bullshit.

We had a chance to end this game in the first half and didn't.

[Bothrops]

They've figured us out, we are like mud in the middle. Luckily the qb can't pass

[RocketDawg]

OK, 3 poor plays by LSU. They'll have to FG.

[KOdawg1]

Fortunate to hold them to a FG there

[Bdawg]

At least a FG

[RocketDawg]

If nothing else, this is the tightest major game of the day.

[starkvegasdawg]

How crucial is this drive?

[BulldogBear]

We had a chance to end this game in the first half and didn't.

5 times into their territory with 0 points

[Dawgology]

Is the ESPN app right??? Missouri State is beating Arkansas 17-0??!!

[starkvegasdawg]

5 times into their territory with 0 points

At least need a chance to miss a FG.

[BulldogBear]

How crucial is this drive?

Ball game crucial. Got to get a double digit lead and maintain it or they will find a way at the end.

[KOdawg1]

5 times into their territory with 0 points

Exactly. LSU isn't out-talenting us

[KOdawg1]

At least need a chance to miss a FG.


I laughed. +1

[BulldogBear]

Is the ESPN app right??? Missouri State is beating Arkansas 17-0??!!

Yes, UPig offense is beyond terrible.

[CaptainObvious]

Gut check time. Do the Tigers do it or the Dawgs do it? Season defining game for the Dawgs. I expect LSU to lose several more because they will see 4 star defenses down the road who will have a 4.3 guy spying Daniels. We have to put our freshman punt returner in to spy Daniels with a 4.3 sec guy.

[Lord McBuckethead]

We are refusing to pass the ball or run our base offense. We can do this.

[LC Dawg]

We've stopped ourselves more than LSU has. If we clean it up we can still win handily but offense just seems off tonight.

[R2Dawg]

Our return game has set the O up all night.

[KOdawg1]

Punt and kick returns have been awesome tonight

[KOdawg1]

This is absolutely 17ing pathetic

[ZedFedder]

Will is unsettled.

[magrooder]

rara made up for the drop

[ZedFedder]

Will is unsettled.

Also I am an idiot.

He is a little off but he is a gamer.

[Lord McBuckethead]

I want all of the Rufus Harvey balls to go to Austin Williams.

[magrooder]

that's a completion

[R2Dawg]

That is a catch. If you are pushed out you can still come back in to catch.

[starkvegasdawg]

that's a completion

I don't think so. Even if forced out his right heel was on the line when he caught it.

[BulldogBear]

Both feet were in bounds but he went oob. The question is was forced out or not?

[KOdawg1]

That is a catch. If you are pushed out you can still come back in to catch.

You have to reestablish yourself in bounds first though. He didn't

[R2Dawg]

His feet were in when he actually caught it but they will not reverse it. They never get the replay right.

[BulldogBear]

I don't think so. Even if forced out his right heel was on the line when he caught it.

I don't think it was

[BlackSailsDawg]

Fact... Arkansas is down 17-0!!!!!!!!!!!

\
LOL!

[Bothrops]

Looked like he ran out himself

[R2Dawg]

His right heel appears out but his foot isn't down. He was forced out before catch.

[CaptainObvious]

They wouldn?t give it to us if he was 2 feet in bounds when he caught it. There is no way they are playing man and blanketing our guts without some holding.

[CadaverDawg]

I know I'm a pessimist, but this damn game has the feel of heartbreak. One that we will look back on all year saying "what if". Man I hope these guys make me eat that

[KOdawg1]

Great play call there

[CadaverDawg]

Tulu needs more touches. Teams ain't gonna kick it to him

[Activated Alpha]

Why do our nuts shrivel up when we play LSU?

[KOdawg1]

Well if it doesn't work once, surely it'll work on the very next play, right?

[KOdawg1]

Good kick

[RocketDawg]

Offense looking better now.

[Goldendawg]

Dolla Bill whiffs. I was afraid of this vs. SEC speed at DE.

[starkvegasdawg]

Now our defense needs to nut back up.

[BulldogBear]

Were too predictable on 3rd and long as well as 4th and short. All they have to do is blitz on the former and all kill the RB on the latter. That and dropped passes will be why we lose if that happens.

[Lord McBuckethead]

The entire offensive line just whiffed.

[Lord McBuckethead]

Now our defense needs to nut back up.

Yep, we need a defensive score here. I will take a 3 and out, but let?s get a clean interception and run back. Hopefully play #2 this possession.

[Tater]

Dolla Bill whiffs. I was afraid of this vs. SEC speed at DE.

Didn't matter. There was no one open or even close to breaking open. Bad pre-snap read and call.

[Bothrops]

We need a big series on defense bad

[LC Dawg]

It feels good to have a fg kicker. Now all we need is an xp kicker. Is Kathy Ireland available? For multiple reasons.

[Activated Alpha]

That?s not the first time we have been sacked on 3rd and long though. Make some adjustments

[EdDawg]

The second toss play was a waste of a play.

[CaptainObvious]

Xtra point looming large. Of course we can?t let ?em score 2 or 3 TDs or it will not matter. Their young offensive line is doing better than our old one. Can?t be 3rd and 10 and liking for downfield completions against their defense.

[Bdawg]

Sure feels good to see a kick go between the uprights

[Lord McBuckethead]

I know I'm a pessimist, but this damn game has the feel of heartbreak. One that we will look back on all year saying "what if". Man I hope these guys make me eat that

I think they can. All we have to do is play our game. So far this game we let them dictate. Hell, I am not even sure we are running our offensive playbook.

[BlackSailsDawg]

We need a TO

[RocketDawg]

That missed PAT may come back to haunt us.

[CadaverDawg]

Defense looks gassed

[CadaverDawg]

Man I could go for a pick six right now

[RocketDawg]

We get the ball in really good field position. Can't believe they actually went for it.

[KOdawg1]

Gotta score here

[preachermatt83]

Big stop

[Bothrops]

Hanging in good stop D

[BulldogBear]

Great job D! I was pessimistic expecting them to score that drive

[magrooder]

Need to make'em pay right here

[BulldogBear]

Our possession plays are never past the sticks. I'm sick of it.

[KOdawg1]

Go for it, but don't call a stupid play

[preachermatt83]

I’d throw it here

[BulldogBear]

Short passed against quick defense, does not yield significant YAC. This isn't the B12 or Pac12.

[preachermatt83]

Our possession plays are never past the sticks. I'm sick of it.

We know we are in 4 down territory

[BulldogBear]

What on the blue 17?

[KOdawg1]

Stupid Stupid Stupid

[magrooder]

Throws it into double coverage

[vindastra]

Can't run...can't throw

[Bothrops]

Luckily it wasn't a pick

[CadaverDawg]

We are just too easy to defend, man. Same shit every play. Offense isn't going to work in this league

[BeardoMSU]

****ing terrible

[Activated Alpha]

Sigh. We will lose

[CaptainObvious]

Will is playing like a freshman. We are giving the damn game.

[CadaverDawg]

Now we give up the lead here

[RocketDawg]

Need a good defensive series here.

[starkvegasdawg]

This is your ballgame.

[LC Dawg]

Our defense is going to have to score.

[ImissCityBagel]

4th down is obviously rrtarded but how do we keep missing 1st down by centimeters????

[magrooder]

Good job by Jett

[EdDawg]

We need to lob it deep on any short yardage situation. They know we have to throw it quick.

[preachermatt83]

That missed xp gonna freaking bite us yet. Watch

[starkvegasdawg]

We need to lob it deep on any short yardage situation. They know we have to throw it quick.

Halfback sweep with a pass option.

[CadaverDawg]

I'm so over this offense. If we had an offense that could put up points, we'd be dominant bc our D is solid. Unfortunately Arnett is better at his job than the guy that gets credit for being an offensive genius. The D can't keep stopping them 4 Quarters

[Bothrops]

Nooooo

[vindastra]

Safe catch

[BeardoMSU]

Good job, ass holes.

[starkvegasdawg]

**** me.

[KOdawg1]

It's over.

[CadaverDawg]

Shit.

[preachermatt83]

Ha! Unreal

[magrooder]

SOB!!!! Austin Williams muffs the crappin' punt

[RocketDawg]

Knew that would happen eventually

[CadaverDawg]

We are....

[CaptainObvious]

We just do not want to win. Check the bookie windows at Philadelphia.

[BulldogBear]

And so it begins

[msstate7]

Austin williams, i hate you! You're trash

[Rahdawg]

Austin just lost this ball game

[RocketDawg]

Now that PAT miss is really going to be a big deal.

[Matt3467]

Okay I'm sorry for defending Austin.

[R2Dawg]

That could be ballgame. Unreal

[LC Dawg]

Well, there goes the gd punt return argument!
I hate it for Austin but FOR ****S SAKE!

[EdDawg]

All he had to do was bump the long snapper and draw the flag.

[RocketDawg]

Austin williams, i hate you! You're trash

Drinking again? ;)

[Activated Alpha]

This is where we typically implode. Same show different coach, different year, different decade

[BulldogBear]

Knew that would happen eventually

And not just on some random punt against BGSU or something.

[Msujd164]

Why. Why. Why try to catch a punt Inside the 10?
