No it's not. Not defending Cohen, just discussing how wrong you guys are about Lastnight & how awful these pathetic comparisons are. You have plenty of poor Cohen bunt decisions you could target, yet you ridiculously target one of the better ones. Figures.

Fans boo when the coach sends in the punter for fourth and close.

If we have 1 second left we don't call a play for Gavin to shoot a 3. It's about the play call!!!!! Not random, a coach's CALL!

Yup Cohen is getting fired. I've been on the record about that for awhile now. I predicted at the end of this season before the season started. It's possible I'm wrong about it being this year but it's definitely coming and definitely before we play our first game in the new stadium.

When you bunt one man over your odds of scoring drop from 49% to 47%. Any disagreement like you are exhibiting here is just saying **** math and logic.

I wonder what the odds are you'll get a hit in an inning when you give away an out and the opposing pitcher has a no-hitter going in the 6th? That's why you don't bunt yesterday.

Exactly. "Oh you're already dealing (and getting wild) lets help you with a free out!"

Myth: "Manufacturing" through bunting is required when your team is struggling at the plate
Fact: Bunting hurts but it hurts bad hitting teams more.

You predicted it at the end of this season before the season started? Huh??? And yea it's possible you are wrong. 90% possible. Which is about right.

If you think Cohen is bad- Bianco had Dishon sac bunt when he was DOWN BY FOUR and the last two times I've seen LSU play they bunted in the second inning.

But the inning of the game should also play into this. If I remember this happened in sixth inning last night. I personally think it's too early and didn't agree with it but didn't have a huge problem with it. Now if it's the 8th or maybe even the 7th I'm all for it.

A now four page thread on bunting and our offense being bad. In a game where we allowed 11 runs and scored 8 not to mention having a home run stolen. Predictable.

Adding two retards into the mix doesn't make the mixture any smarter. I figured the head bunt defender would show up at some point.

Based on the hitters batting average- I'd guess somewhere 30-35% for most of our players.

Same thing different season I see. Cohen can't pitch it for them. Cohen CALLS the bunts.

Before this season started I made the prediction that Cohen would be fired at the end of this season. Is it really that difficult for you to understand?
