I think We're Close to Being Really Good

Two things. Yes we scored some points today, but we only scored 3 for a looonnnngggg time when we still controlled the game. However, at least, we aren't getting blown out in most games like we did under Croom. If we still had a coach like Croom this game would have been 34-3. Second, if Leech could have his team be competitive and show more improvement further into the year with some more wins I would be content. Especially if he wins against OM.

It is pretty strange. The offense does function but it needs an oil change in the worst way. It's weirdly better than whatever Moorhead was trying to do his last year here (see UT game).

[TNDawg35]

That's the best you can do?

Why we all know the answer to this question. We will all wake up to a 2 page ultimate break down like dude is John Madden crossed with Nick Saban or some shit. He will give us his “I know more than you because I’m a coach of some sort” bullshit… Just wait for it…

[Coach34]

They were up 18 in the 4th Q- then were just running time out. This game was not in doubt after the Heath fumble.

We weren't scoring but we moved the ball on them at will, even while only scoring 3. The stats/point scored isn't adding up for us right now

[Dawgology]

This is a weird team. They look completely inept then look unstoppable. It’s the sign of a young team. Leach will get 4 years. It’s a complete rebuild. Just settle in. The die is cast.

I think this is a poor football take & not true.

We outgained by a ton & doubled up their first downs. We should have won that game.

I thought we were clearly the better team but didn't make the important plays

Does it really matter what order the points come in?

If we'd been up 25-0 and then gave up 28 and lost, you'd be even madder.

[Quaoarsking]

The "Wishbone 2020" quip was debunked today, so instead Coach34 has moved the goalposts to complain that our points didn't come early enough (but if they had come earlier he'd find something different).

Yes it does. Teams defend you differently depending on the score of the game

[HancockCountyDog]

Im just confused on the optimism after scoring 3 points in the first 44 minutes of the game against a pretty average LSU defense that got zero pressure on Will almost all day.

Our first eight drives were :

Fumble
Punt
FG
Interception
Punt
End of half
Missed FG
Punt

LSU switched to a 4 man front as well, I don?t understand why, but it gave us life.

Im happy that we scored some late points, and the kids didnt quit, but our offense the first three quarters is the reason we lost this game.

oh no- We are still Wishbone 2020. Offense is garbage.

We have these flashes of greatness. Will looks good in the pocket and throws a strike downfield to Polk. Then he does his best impression of Mike Henig. I would really like to see a complete four quarter game against a decent SEC opponent w/ Will performing at his best. Maybe then I could see the big picture.

Exactly- and because of that- we were down 18 in the 4th Q

We've certainly got to learn to finish drives, but our yardage was pretty good at that point. Also, what happens after that matters

Yardage is like having a flashy car but a small dick. Doesn?t mean shit.

[Quaoarsking]

Weird day to die on that hill. The offense was good enough to not only win but make a statement, but the defense had not 1, not 2, but 3 uncharacteristic brainfarts. That's the reason why we lost.

Yardage correlates really well to winning percentage and has predictive power.

[Fader21]

We should be 4-0 right now. We actually beat Memphis, and should have beat LSU (missed FG, turnovers killed us). The only sure win left is Vanderbilt.

Not even giving us a chance with Tennessee State?

[Lord McBuckethead]

oh no- We are still Wishbone 2020. Offense is garbage.

Agreed. An offense that has to rely on 14 play drives blows. All the other team is has to wait. We 17 it up for them.

Coming from someone with ?above average? size dick, I can still impregnate a bitch with a 3 inch cock and drive a flashy car. Or I could drive a 92 Honda Civic with a 10 inch python but get limp dick 10 seconds in. Point of all this, dicks and football are totally unrelated
