So it sounds like we called a great play that worked, but a player error negated it. So what are you bitching about exactly?

Did you miss the fact that the Vanderbilt DB was fighting with Brown on the goal-line and that the offense expected the referees to throw a flag for unsportsmanlike conduct?

OP totally ignores this but it was pretty bad. Vandy’s DBs got away with murder in that game. Gordy Rush was freaking out on the sidelines during the game.

Exactly. Then you go watch other games and see them play fast and seamless.

Why can't we put in a fullback, pull a guard and run behind the two of them AND a TE. The most simplest of video game plays. We need six feet, fall forward on that play twice and we score...

So apparently just about all DBs are legit track stars?

Because supposedly Durham has legit track speed but I have yet to see it. Them pads must be heavy as shite slowing him down that much.

This is what happened. You can see Nuss was trying to run hurry up, but #6’s jawing allowed Vandy to sub.

He cost LSU 4 points and a timeout.

Obviously he doesn’t. It’s high school track speed. He’s a good back, but not as good as the average SEC starter.

Lack of execution in the red zone, particularly inside the 5 yard line has been a season-long issue. Sloan deserves to be fired just based on this alone.

short yardage red zone offense is the #1 worst of all


Based on the lack of success LSU has seen there, we are renaming it the "dead zone".

This is on Hankton. He decided to rotate out the WR's after the first play. Nuss kept saying hury up but Hankton waited to long to decide what receiver package he wanted out there.

Why did we not bring Curne in and run behind him? Who do we have that can make a hole on goal line situations?

Pretty sure that was the second play which followed the timeout and led to that stupid direct snap.


It was. His sequence is off. LSU went quick from the 3 and ran up the middle to the one then retardedly tried to mass substitute the personnel group but because Barrion Brown and the corner were fighting, LSU didn't get everyone switched out until about 10 seconds were left in the play clock and there was confusion.

TO called then a nice play to Thomas is wiped due to false start.

the sequence was...

hurried up and ran a play on 1st down and got to 1/2 yard line then to me the stupidest coaching shite i have seen in a while we change personnel on 2nd down and I guess the players were so lost that we had to call a timeout. The idiotic part is their defense was gassed why in the hell would you change personnel and allow Vandy to bring in goaline linemen. I was so pissed after the wasted timeout the rest of the sequence is a blur. IDK how much we pay the offensive staff and Kelly combined but that was unforgiveable to me.

Run up to the line, look back at BK 's retarded old arse for so god damn long, we erase momentum of the play and have to call timeout.

So what do we do out of the timeout? Run the play we should have run anyway, Durham up the middle which goes nowhere, vandy is rested.

Then we call a great play to Thomas for the TD only to have a procedure penalty knock it off.


Wrong order of operations. We got to the line and ran it with Caden and he fell down at the 1 just shy of being able to push it in. Nuss was signaling to hurry up and get the play in and then we decided to substitute receivers after a scuffle with Barion Brown with 10 seconds left on the play clock and they had to burn a timeout.

Coming out of a timeout we had a false start on a tight end that hasn't played much. Then we ran a stupid second down direct snap out of 1-2 personnel when Bauer Sharp cannot block. That should have been run with Bauer out of the game and spread out.

Third down no one was open. It was a failure on the coaching staff and the fact no one has been fired yet has me even more disgusted with our staff. The faith in Brian Kelly goes down every day.
