First, I love the bulldogs. I support all players that wear the Maroon and White. Flippin Ugly Win. If a couple balls reach the turf, we lose that game.

Defense turned them over, but have a serious issue getting pressure against a mobile QB, and an even worse job covering players. Wide open receivers for the 2nd straight game. QB again with enough time to shred them. Luckily the ball bounced out way a couple times or we lose that one in regulation. LSU will beat us if this is what we do.

Offense, terrible play calling. Our entire offense was Marks, Rogers, and Tulu only. Very few is any looks to a TE for the second straight week. No Creed, Jrob, Zavion, nothing. No varying in the attack yesterday. It was worse than the air raid in my opinion. At least throwing the ball 80% of the snaps you have the opportunity to break one without having to beat three tacklers.

Special teams, why even have Tulu back there at the end of the game if he doesn?t have 100% green light to return any kick in the field of play. Instead, with 2 seconds on the clock, we allowed Tulu to let the ball bounce in the endzone as opposed to getting a return. Then we kneeled the ball because Rogers can?t score from the 25. Total waste. Terrible game situation recognition. Try nothing, game over. Tulu return and possible Arizona flag and we had a shot. Once we didn?t return the ball, kneeling it was the only answer cause fumbling and losing is way more likely than Rogers getting us in the endzone with 2 seconds left.

Here is the simple truth. Our ?team? is not good. Our coaching staff yesterday was not good. The RB room is the only one that deserves coffee.

So now that we know we are not good, maybe the fans can just sit back and enjoy the season. Right now we are looking like a 6-6 team, maybe. Nothing to hang out hat on. 6 days till LSU is here. Maybe we will get our heads out of our asses by then, cause LSU is about to go in dry against us.

Pretty much right on. And to the "CZA is gonna get us back to MSU football" crowd, we've sucked way more than we've succeeded by RTGDF.

Going back and looking at some of the plays, Will's sack in the second half on 3rd and 3 was horrendous. He had a crossing route wide ass open. He took the sack instead. AZ brought a blitz and we had a guy - I believe it was Creed - on a crossing route wide open. Will looks at him then takes the sack instead of moving away from the pressure, buying him enough time to hit his open receiver.

Not many Ds can get good pressure on a mobile QB; it ain't just us. We got some pressure at times but he scrambled out and made big plays. Some he rushed and were TO. That is what a mobile QB does to a D, even a good D. They are a great equalizer. We are the opposite; we play right into a pressure D. AZ figured that out and pinned their ears back on us. Will is a sitting duck with no pocket presence and poor field decisions not to mention not great on reads presnap.

I still think a lot of things can be fixed if coaches are willing but they gotta break the mold this year on what they want to do.

The bigger issue on D to me was missed tackles and being out of position. Both can be fixed but the question is why we got those issues at all right now?
