    Re: Next Up is 1-6 Rice

    Unfortunately Tech is notorious for playing to their competition’s level minus a few points and their competition having their best game of the season against Tech.

    If the Dawgs play to their full potential they should win by 30. That won’t happen though. Tech hasn’t played near their potential yet regardless of the opponent.

    A quick recap... Don’t forget the game was tied at 24 against NW, There was the typical SEC massacre by MS, then the squeaker win at WK that Tech probably couldn’t win in a rematch, the squeaker losses at SC, the one point lead going into the 4th quarter against USA, the horrid UAB game that was predetermined by the conference to be a loss and Tech just went along with it, and then the snatching defeat from victory game against SM.

    Tech always seems to make it way more interesting than it should be.

    I can hardly wait to see what epic scenario is played out against Rice. Tech being Tech it won’t be 30-0. I can’t remember the last time a Hotlz Tech team shit kicked the opposition from start to finish.

    We are super easy to game plan against, anyone with a brain should be able to out coach us. Holtz let it out last year after the Arkansas game that he simplified the playbook for that game since it was J'Mar first start, they knew then.

    I don't know how much more simplification we can stand, the opposition has seen our whole playbook midway through the second quarter.

    LA Tech football is on life support right now. Any team with a bad attitude could punch us in the mouth right now and our guys might curl up in the fetal position and suck their thumbs.

    We will win, the offense will score 30+ points against a glorified high school team and all will be well in Ruston again.

    I certainly hope we don't give Skip a reason to talk about how wonderful Rice is! If we lose this one, there will be lots of great seats available for homecoming.

    Is anyone 100% sure we'll beat a 1-6 team? Sad.

    Rice is going to give someone a good game this year, it might as well be TECH. T'Mac, please place Skip in a media blackout, no one wants to hear how wonderful Rice is, what a storied program they are, and how he really likes what the coaches are doing with them this year.
    Skip and this whole team needs to keep their mouths shut for a week and a few of them ride the pine Saturday and be humbled a little.

    Speaking of players keeping their mouths shut... We sure do talk a lot of crap to the other team after every play- not just our defense, but every unit we have. Even J'mar talks crap to the opposing team's defenders. Maybe I'm just old-school but it would be nice to see a whole lot more ACTION DURING and a lot less talk after each play, especially by our starting QB.

    ...and COYHCSH is still talking about the " fine character" of this team. That's just before he blames his own players for crucial penalties in the UAB and USM losses.

    I'm sick of seeing guys stand up and dance after making a hard tackle following a +10 yd gain.

    Everything these days seems to be trying to remind Tech fans how blessed we were to have Sokol, Driskell and Higgins the past few seasons.

    Amen! In some of our losses that uncontrolled dancing made certain players look as if the didn’t understand how to read a scoreboard.
