Big game for Lebby
We'll probably have a chance to win, Lebby will screw it up, and his cult will say it's OK because he covered.
Even Vegas can foresee we will blow this game in the end likely fumbling away a game winning field goal opportunity
Not gonna be close this week. Arkansas offense is legit.
Just Homefield advantage. Wait till later in the week when the line goes to 7+. But I will def taking the over.
Last night when we were 17 points ahead, I told my wife that somehow we would find a way to loose it. She laughed. And later I said I told you so. No, I don't think we will beat Arky either.
I'm not a betting man, but if I was I would place a large sum on Arkansas and the over. We won't keep up and I fear a lot of our players will just go through the motions because they know Lebby sucks
I don't see what you guys see for arky being this juggernot on offense. We have played with and held better offenses at bay this year. Their defense just allowed a putrid Auburn offense to pay 30 on them. If we don't lay the wood to them this weekend Lebby needs to be USC kiffined.
Losing this weekend will lose me. It's unacceptable. Their stadium was half full last week as well.
If Lebby hasn't lost the team this should and better be an easy freaking win.
Lebby HAS to find a way to win this weekend. With Mizzou now down to their 3rd string QB, that game is very winnable. If we could get to 6-6 and get a free shot at home against OM I would like our chances. I feel like 5-6 would have us playing tight, which as we have seen does us no favors.
A UPig fan I work with and I were just discussing the possible flow of this game. I'm thinking after 7 scoreless overtimes, one team will lose yardage and try to kill a field goal. The attempt will fall short, and be fielded by the defense. the defense will run it out of the endzone, then reverse field and loop back into the endzone where they will be tackled for the winning safety.
It's hard to see either team just playing well and winning the game.
Players dont think like this. The players know Lebby wasnt covering the WR's making the big plays in the 4th Q. They also know Lebby didnt get the FG blocked or hit the QB late. The OL knows how many sacks they allowed. The players actually have some sense.
Not picking us to win any of those at this moment. But I am also not stock saying cancel the season. The buy in from the players is still absolutely there. Talked to a manager with the team yesterday evening and he said everyone walked in pissed off but none were pissed off at Lebby or the staff. Said Loadholt had an uncomfortable meeting with the OL where he told them in no uncertain terms that the pre snap penalties in the OT drive and not being able to run the ball and close the game out was on them and they all had to live with that, including Loadholt.
The buy in from the team is still very much there and hell, maybe I am just zigging to everyone else zag. I said Saturday night that I am in wait and see mode with Lebby but that does not mean I am going to be doom and gloom for the next month either. We have shown we have the ability to hang with anyone, we just have to close.
Im doom and gloom on saturday night as a fan. Sunday is hangover. By Monday - I put on Bill Withers - Lovely Day and get back on the saddle.
All four of our games left are winnable. It's annoying that that 10-2 talk earlier this year was this close to in grasp. We can compete with anyone. We just need to stop being idiots and close. Having Fluff back will be huge.
OL ain't the only unit to blame. Saturday night's debacle was a team failure.
Para my friend, bad decisions by Lebby can be fixed. Hite someone he trust to help manage the games. Yes he has made bad decisions but some of our players have bad some really bad decisions with stupid penalties.
We have 4 more games to play, who knows we may win a game or two.
Stupid Penalties happen all the time and they always happen at the wrong moment. Either some lineman tackles their opposing player or a Pass interference or a stupid PF. Alot of times the holding is to save the Q from getting killed and the PI is to save a TD. But 2 weeks in a row of just head scratching play calling, either by Shapen or Leb, is concerning. One other thing were the 2 plays, one a TD and one a 1st down, that were called short on the field but would've been overturned were not even challenged, Even the announcers were perplexed that we went hurry up and snapped the ball. The 1st down play we didn't get and we did get the TD.
At 4.5 now with the O/U at 67. Head scratcher of the day Vandy +1,5 against texas. That also depends on Archs condition on Game day.

They had the winning drive on om and fumbled.....sound familiar? And that was before Biker took over HC....
