Accountability of players?

Posted by vanimal on 10/6/14 at 11:58 am
There comes a point that when players get between the lines, they have to make plays! We can blame play calling and coaching all we want. Although they are young, these players are good enough to compete! Coaches are not on the sidelines with Xbox controllers dictating every move. Harris missed a few open receivers trying to throw the ball 300mph. Throw ball and catch ball! Tackling is not different then what these guys have been doing it their whole life. Wrap him up and put him on the round. Right now there is to much thinking on the field because things haven't gone perfect. Don't play not to loose but play to win. The players need to relax and just react and play! Get on the field and start having fun again and quit pressing! Geaux Tigers!

We actually just started a group a few months ago and it has been growing! Your not alone. We call the group DMATE (Des Moines Area Tigers In Exile)! We have a Facebook page. Go to LSU Des Moines-DMATE. We are getting together next weekend for the GA game. We update the page often to let everyone know where will be! Hope to see you there!
Welcome to the family! GEAUX TIGERS!
How did you end up there?
Where in Iowa do you live? I live in Ames. We do a lot of LSU football partites during the season.
The LSU Dallas Ulumni group is hosting a party at J. Gilligan's Bar in Arlington. It is $60 a ticket and that get your food, beer, a parking spot at the bar, and a shuttle to and from the game. This is what my group is doing.

A Tiger fan in Des Moines! Glad to see. I live in Ankeny and am almost positive I have the only house with an LSU flag flying loud and proud. I just got 6 tickets to the game this weekend and can't wait to head down. Menu is already planned! Try looking for hotels in either Grapevine or Irving. The hotels in Arlington are going fast and are almost 3x the normal rate!
I have to be there all next week for a confrence. I will be staying at the Gaylord Texan Resort. Any suggestions would be appriciated!

Anyone have any good recipes for wild hog? I don't have any roasts. All I have are ham steaks and ribs.
