And yet we had no one in the intermediate area behind the first line where the ball was actually recovered.


That's because the player ran up on the bounce and completely misplayed the ball in the air. If he doesn't run up, he's right there waiting on the ball. Don't know if he makes the play bc the MSU guy was charging down, but we would have at least had a player in position

Because those miserable fricks are not happy unless they're miserable and are bitching about something.

In case you didn't know it, over half of the rant have been coaches their whole lives but they choose not to do so in real life because they have more success coaching on a message board and video games.

The kick was literally perfect.


Again, those miserable fricks are bitching just to bitch right now.
That onside kick was beyond being perfect. As much as it pissed me off that MSU recovered, you have to tip your hat to the kicker.

We had 2 WRs there

They played the bounce poorly and it got behind them
This is the correct answer. We came lunging forward and it bounced over our heads. Poorly played by our hands guys (and great kick while we're at it).

When MSU shifted pre-kick our unit made ZERO adjustment. How is that even possible?

bullshite. That team was not lined up to defend the onside. 3 guys blocking 6 or 7?

St guys were untouched. Yes, I was a good bounce, but why couldn't one of our guys been there instead of a St guy?

Just horrible. We moved basically no one over there once they shifted.

Watch the video I posted at the bottom of page 1 and tell me the second that this "shift" we didn't adjust to happened.

Pre snap we had 4-2-4 with 1 guy back, which is what you need to have to protect the entire field

Once they saw the shift, Jackson and Adams, who were in the middle, started to shift over, which they did slowly

We had guys in position, they just played the bounce poorly

Basically, you're just wrong.

Perfect kick.
And no. The announcers said "they have 10 people on the line"
We had one person back deep just in case.

What game did you watch? They shifted. We shifted. Our guys could've played it better, but I don't know that I've ever seen a better onside kick.

Wrong! They had 6 guys lined up on our 3 up guys.

Basically we tried to block 6 with 3 and had 3 guys behind them to "catch" it.

We were oytmanned and the St guys have tuning starts. If we out more blockers there, there are less of them to catch it.

But don't worry, you les and bdp guarded against a backside surprise. We had that covered.

Idiots

Right...which is how it should be

You realize we have to cover the entire field, right?

I was wrong about the 7 MSU players, it was 6. But there were only 4 LSU players on that side of the field. Of two in the middle, only Adams got close to being involved and the up man (Donte Jackson?) didn't even start moving until the ball was on it's way down. That's not 6 on that side if they can't get there in time. The two behind the first two are in no mans land if they are supposed to screen, so you have 2 on 6, or you have 4 on 6 with no one back to recover.

The biggest problem I have is the two LSU players closest to the sideline (up and back) are watching the ball and not even looking to screen MSU players. They got wiped out. Even worse, they turned their backs on the oncoming MSU players, but that's because they were watching the ball and it took that excellent bounce.

Only the two just inside are looking to screen and neither hit anyone until the ball had bounced, way too late for that assignment. Extremely horrible design, coaching, or execution... or all.

You might want to look at the position, angle, and direction of the kicker.

NO WAY we need to cover the other half with more than 1 or 2, and def not outside the hash.
