    Guys, we are lucky. We could have played Troy last night and gotten absolutely pasted.

    Re: LSU falls to The Sunbelt!

    I was thinking during the game we are not very good this year. Any win is a good win, and that is true. But, heck, LSU lost to a Belcher. Ole Miss got pasted 66-3, Tenn lost at home 41-0. Moo State got pasted 49-10. CFB has more parity now than at any other time in history. We like to say, well, we didn't play very well, blah, blah, blah...but how about South Alabama did play well!? Their front 7 is stout. They don't have great depth and eventually wore down, especially in the 4th qtr. But, when fresh they were beating us on the LOS. Sometimes you just have to tip your hat to the other guys and say "good job."

    History being what it is, State will be Top 5 and National Champion contenders next year. Happens every time we play them.

    They do have a ton of freshmen seeing significant playing time. With any kind of coaching at all, those great athletes should be fine by September, 2018. LSU is never short on 5-star talent. Doesn't take a lot to get them to win some games.

    We also had a lot of very poor FIELD POSITION last night. It seemed like we spent the entire 3rd quarter inside our own 10-yd line. We just couldn't dig ourselves out.

    Even though South Alabama punted 6 times (for 39-yd avg), we only had one (1) punt return for just 5 yards. Teddy Veal has got to do better than that, or we need to put someone else back there returning punts. Meanwhile, Tech used 2 different punters to punt 4 times for a 37-yard average. That's high school punting stats at best. Also, Barnes was 2 for 3 (66.6%) in kicking FG's last night (he missed a 43-yarder), and the South Alabama kicker was 3 for 3 (100%).

    Bottom line, we need our kicking/punting game to perform much better than they did last night, and we need them to "flip the field for us".

    Re: LSU falls to The Sunbelt!

    1) Below is LA Tech's STARTING field position on each drive in the 2nd half last night:

    Tech 19
    Tech 28
    Tech 12
    Tech 10
    Tech 11
    USA 27
    Tech 26 (End of Game)

    WOW! With the lone exception of that 6th drive --which was caused when USA tried to convert a 4th down and failed-- Tech had miserable starting field position the entire second half. In fact, LA Tech's average starting field position for those first 5 possessions in the 2nd half was their own 16-yd line. That leaves a long field to cover.

    2) And below is LA Tech's starting field position for the last two drives of the first half:

    Tech 1
    Tech 11


    WOW! This means LA Tech had an average starting field position of their own 13-yd line for SEVEN (7) CONSECUTIVE drives!

    Holtz has got to address this. We're lucky we survived this.

    COYHCSH has never considered the punting to be important. His punt receiving strategy is to have a good "fair catch" guy back there.

    That rule of thumb about the 10 yard line on punts should apply on kickoffs too. Put our returners on the 10. If it goes over your head, let it fly. Take your chances that it's coming out to the 25.

    I keep thinking that we are not that bad either. I think our offense is the problem only because they get mental mistakes through-out the game. I actually think our defense is pretty darn good this year because we have given all of our opponents problems for most of the game. Our losses came because well...the defense could not contain late in the games. We had a competitive game in the 1st half against Miss St and were beating South Cacalackie for most of it. The offense has to do their part on 'defense' by sustaining drives and eating clock AND cutting down the mistakes. I do like our offense more and more and the Learfield guys on the call last night were very complementary of J'Mar about his poise and calm even in tough moments.

    Hey Hog Dog you should email the coaches and tell them to take the electric Teddy veal off punt returns

    Re: LSU falls to The Sunbelt!

    It's a wake-up call for programs like ours. Easy to take " lesser " teams and conferences like last nite for granted. We nit pick wins over teams we assume are inferior-- I find myself walking out of 18-- 30 point wins disappointed -- coaches job is to win-- not impress fans.

    Except, unlike punts, kickoffs are live balls. If our returner doesn't catch the ball, and it doesn't go into the end zone, the opponent can scoop and score. So, that's not a very sound plan you have.
