The last 28 seconds of the 1st half is a Fantastic Summary of the Brian Kelly Era

Was there last night. It's even worse watching the replay.

3rd and 11 with 28 seconds and NO TIMEOUTS remaining for either team.

We need to know situational football. They can not stop the clock, even if they had a timeout, they wouldn't stop the clock.

Caden Durham catches a shitty swing pass for a 7 yard loss.

4th and 18 with 23 seconds left on THEIR 48 YARD LINE Plenty of time to just relax and throw a hail mary. What does Brian Kelly do? He gets angry on the headset and starts taking them of with 15 seconds left.

What pussy coaching. Completely Unprepared. Completely uninterested. Leaving plays on the field. Angry at everyone but himself. Lacking situational and game awareness.

Of course it's a hail mary for a reason but Jesus frick this fricking retard didn't even have the balls to try. Yesterday was the start of him beginning to lose the fanbase. A fricking joke.

He should have to refund every single fricking ticket.

It’s what you call soft.

Texas AM and Bama were no different.

We had opportunities in the first half in both those games to increase to an insurmountable lead or pull within a few points.

Both times Sloan went ultra conservative and we got nothing.

He took a page right out of the Les Miles clock mgmt for dummies. Someone needs to find O’s binder and give to his dumb arse.

I dont think it was because he was pissed off and more because he didnt realize the opportunity. Which is a bigger issue

Agreed. I was screaming at the TV to at least attempt a Hail Mary. Inexcusable coaching right there

He may lose the team going forward.

It was the 2 plays before not that play. They were looking to just “surprise” them with the only plays that actually worked some. Lacy was shut out and when he did have an opportunity his missed a TD. That hit him in the face mask.

To this point, BK is a fail. Comparing him ot O is misguided at best. He must be compared to what is happening now. He is worse than Lane Kiffin so far as I am concerned.

Ridiculous. You have a 6’7” basketball player on the team. How TF do you not even give a Hail Mary a try?

What's the worst that can happen? Nuss throws 20th interception?

Besides the bogus face mask call, it was the loudest the crowd booed. Everyone there was looking around like WTF?!? LSU just looked either lost or scared of Bama.

Did the same last week. Let’s also not forget Nichols. What’s frustrating is he usually elects to receive…that possession would be the reason you receive, that’s the extra possession

His situational coaching has been downright terrible. I can’t think of one instance of him at LSU where I’m there thinking “that’s why he gets paid the big bucks”

I wasn’t there last night, but those are the types of decisions that you lose the crowd with. I was at UCLA on the east side and experienced the demoralization in that first half.

It's no wonder he doesn't win big games. He coaches scared and doesn't take risks. If they don't know that by now, frick em

He isn't going to change.

I think the 2019 team would have 3 losses with BK which is the biggest indictment I think we could give him

100% in agreement!

I was pissed at the dumb arse check down on 3rd with short time till half, but even more pissed that he didn't even attempt to run a Hail Mary with use of a hard count to get closer if you draw them! Snap the damn ball with 3 seconds or less as time expires and it's virtually NO risk other than a freak injury or an INT that would need to go back the length of the field! Even a pass down field over the middle and give your athletes a chance to make a play or possibly get a flag to extend the half. That should be something they practice every week!

It's like there's NO preparation for situational football, NO strategy for end of half situations, and, worst of all, NO balls on this team from top to bottom! Honestly they look soft on offense and defense, and that's on the coaching/leadership! Everyone looks hesitant and scared to make a mistake. If that hesitancy isn't reflected by the last two games end of 1st half coaching decisions, I don't know what is!

I was moving from my kitchen back into my living room and had to ask as time expired, "did we just leave a play on the field?"

The only time was the 2-point conversion against Bama 2 years ago... That and Jayden Daniels freakish ability are the only reasons Kelly isn't being considered a total failure and poor hire!

Kelly has shown me all I need to see at this point! He's a conservative, uptight coach who just wants to "stay in" big games. He only tries to open up the offense at the end of the game, and he hopes/prays they can turn it on at that point! If it wasn't for Jayden Daniels ability to run for huge plays when pressured, Kelly would be on a very hot seat! Nuss (who I think is a good QB despite the on-field results) can't succeed in this style of offense! It requires a freak athlete at QB to be successful against teams who can defend the run and pressure the QB which is virtually every top team in the SEC!
