Bowl game vs last Saturday

What was the difference, was it just rest / deeper in many obvious spots? How did we completely shut down the Heisman trophy winner and do enough on offense (without Canada) to blow Louisville out yet completely wet the bed against Moo?

That is a great question.

You answered your own question. We ain't got the horses this year.

So you couldn't come up with any other answer other than to quote my hypothetical so to you it wasn't coaching.
I don't know the answer either but apparently it's not as simple as "fire everyone".

exactly.
but no two games are ever the same.
different players different team.
it hurts but got to move on.

Quiet thread, amongst people just waiting to pounce. But they've got nothing bc they can't blame coaches.
We might've just been the inferior opponent and gotten our arse kicked on a night where everything went wrong.

State is a much much more physical team than Louisville.

If we are THAT inferior to MOO STATE, we have much bigger problem than coaching. If THAT is true, LSU is done. It's over. There is no coming back.

Having 1st, 3rd and 5th round draft picks on defense helped.

Do you watch lines of scrimmage? We were manhandled. Mauled, raped, destroyed, humiliated, dominated. You pick. When you can't play sound physical football you get killed.
I realistically expected a heck of a tough game. In no universe should what happened happen. We didn't turn it over and
got beat by MSU by 30!
Our kicking game is awful, our offense looks like it was designed for Friday nights, our D is not physical

That defense not only had been playing together all season, but was more talented as well.

Both lines controlled the UL game, they got whipped in the MSU game

Louisville's OL is awful, and IMO Petrino didn't have a great gameplan.
State had a great plan and executed it well. Attacked us on the perimeter and they nailed their blocks to spring big gainers.
Also, vast difference in the quality of DL we fielded last year vs. Saturday night. That was a spring game caliber 2-deep by the end of game. It'd be wrong to even call it a 2-deep, really.

A lot of good points made by multiple people about the line of scrimmage and yes that's exactly what happened, but how do we correct it?
I'm neutral as far as O is concerned. I just don't get all of the clean coaches out commentary after one game given the changes in personnel. I get it, it's an oversimplification, we shouldn't have lost to MSU by 30, but we did.

State was a better team and more physical than Louisville last year despite the record...so if Louisville was better-why didn't they score 20 points on the Tigers like MSU did?

Correct, a Les Miles led team may have looked worse, if possible, and I don;t think another coach would've made it look any better.
