Thanks to Kentucky missing the FG. Lucky bastages.

Dat's why I love college ball. A 35 yarder kinds seems like, at best, a 50-50 proposition.

 

[Madmarsha]

Ah. Nothing like a good ol arse whoopin.

Dam you guys for worrying me here in the first half.

I never was worried, but I was OK with letting you worry. I do the same with my wife.

Well. It's like this. I had zero doubts about LSU losing. They were always going to win but damn they were sloppy as hell in the 1st half. Those second half adjustment doe.

 

[DaveXA]

What I like is since the early 14 points, the defense has given up nada.

 

[joejr]

Defense played much better in the second half.

 

[insidejob]

Jeez guys. I can't believe LSU looks this bad against Northwestern. We should all be ashamed to root for such an awful team.

1st half - Zone D
2nd half - Man to Man

As someone whose only connection to this game is what you guys are saying, it doesn't seem so. It's been feeling like LSU is getting blown out.

Not all of us...

65-14 is "unasseptable"

1st half - Zone D

Why not try new concepts in a game like this? If they'd had their starting D-Line, maybe the zone would have worked out better. But they didn't. All four didn't play.

This is an ugly blowout.

If you just look at the score, it’s comforting but there’s a story within this blowout that needs to be addressed.

LSU needs to play hard for all 4 qtrs

4 starters missing on defense. That's significant against anyone.

Well, that and they probably had a little bit of a hangover after the Texas win. It's human nature. They'll be fine. I'm not worried, even a little bit.

Oh stop it. You won't ever be happy. All you ever do is complain. They played hard for all for quarters. Played well on offense for four and well on defense for two, while missing the whole starting D-Line and staring Mike.

The fact that they were able to make the adjustments at halftime to shut them out in the second half shows they're better than you'll ever give them credit for.
