And they ended up being a semi-final team that lost by 4. So makes you wonder what if Nuss wasn't hurt. Would we still have BK?

Kelly had no business losing that game last year.

Wut

We only lost by 5 and had a chance to win until the very last play.

Don’t take the bait and be a drama queen like so many other people have. Your narrative would be 180 degrees different if we had made one more play and won.

The last person you can blame is Nuss, he was gutting it out when he shouldn't have been playing.
yes, it was on BK not having a capable QB ready to go in for Nuss...

Sloan still tried to throw into that defense


You have to be able to, but you need an OC who can scheme up some good zone beaters to flood areas and get defenders stressed and guessing. We have that now.

They knew Nuss was a statue. And the best Ole miss team ever only beat a bad LSU team by 5. it got one coach fired and the other a raise

Agreed. We have a running QB now, so if they do that again, it's gonna be trouble for them. If its the only game of the season that PG shows up for, this is it. He knows he has to. It won't be a cakewalk and I do think LSU is the better team and has the better coach.

He kinda had to. We couldn’t run for shite. Negative plays every time we ran if I remember right


Taking away the sacks, LSU ran it 19 times for 66 yards. Roughly 3.5 yards a carry. Now that is by no means good, but its not bad enough to have a 2:1 pass to run ratio with a QB that was having a hard time competing passes. The offensive game plan was what lost the game last year. Getting 2 yards on 1st down then throwing 2 incompletions is not going to cut it. Meanwhile Ole Miss ran into a brick wall the 1st 2 drives of the game and then you see their offense start going east and west with short hitches sprinkled in just to get a few first downs and slow down the defense. All of a sudden those 1-2 yard runs were getting 3-4, then 5-6.

Funnily enough, if Sloan had decided to throw 15 screens in that game like he did in games going forward, they probably win.

Nuss lost us the game. It was on him. We could have one that game with Van buren


Van Buren is an FCS level QB. He wasn't going to do anything.

Since Nuss was hurt, basically half functional, and Sloan and Kelly knew it, you might want to give your assessment a second look. The Ole Miss loss was 100% on our idiot coaches.

I remember Nuss was underthrowing his WRs on any pass more than 10 yards as well


The one play I remember vividly is the pic late first quarter, we were up 7-3 and had mounted a drive, we were around midfield - someone here posted a back view of the throw that showed it perfectly, he looked over two WIDE OPEN receivers underneath to throw to a receiver in double coverage 25 yards down the field - changed the whole complexion of the game.

Still we only lost by 5 and they had to convert a 4th and 3 just past midfield with about a minute and a half left to put the game away.

I also thought the PI against Picket was questionable as well, and that was an even bigger play as he scored a TD on it and it was thus a 14 pt. swing.

Punked? We loss by 5 on the road to a team that made it to the CFP w/o their head coach.

A&M is the one who punked us last year. Beat us by 35 at home and cleared Tiger Stadium by the 4th Quarter.
