Sunday Morning QB- Lt. Rogers- "You aint got no legs Edition"

[confucius say]

I disagree on the decision to try and push the ball down the field at the end of the half. Just over a minute with 2 timeouts left. You try and push the ball. Will just made a horrible decision.

What makes me made is Arnett second guessing the decision post game. Say that's what we are going to do and we have to have the mentality that we are going to score. Don't back off it.

Yep. With that much time and 2 timeouts down 14, you absolutely have to try to get points.

Yep. Don't cover for will or anybody else. Just be honest.

I know everyone here hates the example up north, but dem facks is facks!

All they needed to do was get in field goal range to take the lead late in 4th, but what does Lane do? He says, they haven?t stopped us all day. We ain?t settling for a FG. We are pressing for a TD. And the TD gave them a 4 point lead, making a FG by LSU null and void. But nope, a 5 point lead is not good enough. So let?s get 2 and make it a 6 pt. lead. Why does that make a difference? Because now, if LSU were to score a TD. You can at least go all out to block the XP, keeping it tied for possible overtime. Like analytics or hate them, their Coach is thinking multiple plays ahead. He has the IF/THEN part of Coaching down pat!

17th this year so far but averaging 14.2 points per game vs 9th last year averaging 18.2 points per game...which one is actually doing better? The one allowing less points is the only and correct answer. We will see were they finish at the end of the year.

Probably in Atlanta

I would like to see Wright at least a full half next week. There no reason to put Will out there the whole game and he doesn?t need the reps. If alright struggles against this OOC then it would at least pull the pressure off the coaches because fans would see we just don?t have talent at QB right now. On the other hand if he rolls maybe they would gain some confidence and just let him play.

Right now scheming defense against Rogers has to be the easiest thing ever.

[msstate7]

2022:

Rushing defense ranked 35th
Passing Defense 6th (in efficiency)
Scoring Defense 9th.

2023:

Rushing D... 36th

Passing D.. 21st

Scoring D... 17th

Why would you use rankings rather than numbers?

Total def:
2022: 318.2
2023: 297.0

Scoring def:
2022: 18.2
2023: 14.2

Wright will not make a difference. When the OL doesn't grasp their blocking and you don't have the TEs You don't keep doing it over and over. Wright was met behind the LOS and dropped several times behind this OL.

Because they know it's a run play when he is in

[CaptainObvious]

Wright is not the answer behind an awful O-line.

Refer to Commodores, Vanderbilt.

In fact if State played Vandy in Nashville, Vandy would probably be favored.

But he also adds a dimension we don't currently have. That is inarguable.

We need to see how well he can pass in an actual game to know if the trade off is worth it. I personally believe the coaches are worried he will play well and then they will have a QB controversy they don't want to have.

If our coaches are worried that we might have some success, damn...

Relative strength. Each year is different. Offenses are stronger or weaker year to year. This time of year both mean very little actually.

I've seen it before..... just saying

Maybe our media will actually ask the question so we can get a different explanation of why we don't see wright for a series or half.

Rankings on a complete season vs rankings before halfway aren't equal imo

[EdwardDrayton]

Yep. With that much time and 2 timeouts down 14, you absolutely have to try to get points.

Yep. Don't cover for will or anybody else. Just be honest.

It's a possession. Just because it's the one before the half makes it no different. Run the offense. But as the veteran QB, understand the situation. It's 24-10; score one and we're one score down. And we get the ball to start the 2nd half. But under no circumstance do you turn it over to allow 31-10. Just an atrocious decision by an experienced QB.

Prove it. Leave him in for a half.

[confucius say]

Correct. We are giving guys at opportunities at other positions. Stop babying will. He's a big boy. He can take it.

I said that. Same with numbers.

I'm gonna add something else. Y'all trying to make the argument Bama is some kinda stout D. We could also argue that we really suck since Kiffen put up over 700 yds against an LSU team that we only had 200 against. And that is about 200 more over your statement that it is awfully hard to put up 500 yds in SEC play. LSU is now ranked dead last in SEC in D.

I get you but conversely that same UM team put up 10 points last week against Bama and we ran for 100 more yards than they did. We do suck on offense, especially against LSU (horrid throwing that game as well) doesn't mean we haven't improved some.
