I saw a very well-run screen play after Etling came in. Now that's not exactly high tech but it's nuclear fusion compared to the offense last week.

Harris looked like a broken Qb with a dysfunctional offense against that FCS school. At least we moved the ball and executed simple plays with Etling.

Because as fans we would like to see at least a competent offense with a Qb that can play the position.

Yea until we play an SEC school and Etling doesn't live up to the hype and everyone will act as if they can't believe our QB situation is still shitty.

the simple fact that Etling at least proved that he is capable of running the offense this year

you people that constantly want other to wallow in your misery are the worst

Right...do the orderlies let you out on Saturdays for a few hours? Maybe they should rethink their policies.

Even if they were N.D. State they would still be an FCS school and would have less talent and depth than any sec school including Mizzou and Vandy.

Maybe...I saw a few passes completed (just a few!) and LSU athletes making several plays that had nothing to do with him. If you saw more than that, you are the fricking idiot.

so, at the end of the game, exactly how do you score "imagination". best I can tell, "imagination" isn't even included in the box score.

but i'm sure that FACT is lost on you.

I don't care who it was against. It was better than what we were doing.

Okay, I will concede that the change at QB provided a spark for a short time, but that was it. The 2nd half could have been provided by either QB.

Yeah, neither is effort or drive or heart, but it is what makes a player/team either move forward or backward.

but I am sure that FACT is lost on you.

Given inferior play calling, which should be expected, we KNOW Harris cannot produce, and we have some valid basis to predict Etling can produce, so it definitely matters.
