MState 35 - JSU 3

Congrats Sly Croom, you won't have to resign Monday morning. Congrats Dawgs, I'm glad you won the game because that is probably the last one you will win this season. 0 offensive points in the first half. Less than 100 yards in the first half. Henig was 6-15 passing. Jacksonville State is a Division 1-AA team! What the crap Croom? What gives? This is a freaking Division 1-AA team for goodness sake!

Thankfully for the Dawgs Derek Pegues was on the roster. On the first play from scrimmage JSU's runt quarterback threw a gift-wrapped pick-6 to Pegues. In the second quarter Pegues shredded JSU's pitiful punt coverage unit to give State a 14-3 lead. At the half that was the score, 14-3. Let me write that again, 14-3. State's offense did nothing, nothing. We followed Croom's instructions and held, and held, and held some more. Croom was on the sidelines shaking his head after a touchdown got called back because of holding. Guess what wearer of a crooked hat, you told them in the paper that it was ok to hold. I hope you are happy.

JSU's coach may be dumber than ours. He actually thought they could run right at MState. You idiot, that is the strength of our defense. We have no secondary, if you want to be successful throw on us. Croom, you better hope you play against teams with similar idiocy in the head coaching slot. Thank you Deljuan for working hard to come back from your injury and anchor a solid effort up front. As for the aforementioned pitiful secondary, ya'll suck. You almost gave up a long pass play to JSU. You gave up a lot of yards to them through the air. I hope ya'll are ready for the stretch run because teams like Kentucky are going to air it out on ya'll all day long.

We scored 21 in the second half offensively. Better, but still unsatisfactory. With the way JSU played it should have been 35-0 at the half at least, and MState should have been sending in the reserves quite early. The offensive performance was pitiful, no progress made at all. Henig, you suck buddy. Croom, if you think Henig is a good quarterback you, sir, are the blind one. Georgia, kiss your offensive problems goodbye. Just simply run a receiver deep, throw it to him, and watch an easy touchdown. It's going to be an ugly day for the good ole MState offense in Athens. The next week Kentucky gets to have fun with our secondary. The week after we play a Bama team in Bryant Denny that will also expose our secondary. Arkansas has owned us. Ole Miss looks better than they have in a long while. 2-10 here we come.

LSU 48 - MState 17

Holy crap, what can I say about this game. I knew LSU was going to kick our butts in major fashion, but once again this team continues to undercut my already low expectations. 35 first half points. Thirty friggin five. The only time we stopped LSU's offense was on a late second quarter interception, which we did nothing with. Meanwhile State mustered 3 first half points, and that after Croom decided to kick a freaking field goal down 35. Had I been near the man I would have strangled him.

This was aking to Oregon 2003. We came out completely unprepared and lacking motivation again. This sucks, this sucks bad. I'm tired of this crap Croom, get it together and try to coach. These players and fans deserve better. Les Miles pulled his familiar foot off the gas procudure in the second half. First he puts in Alley Broussard on the first drive and proceeds to run up the gut. Then he puts in backup quarterback Flynn, who promptly threw an interception returned for a touchdown. Thanks Miles, we couldn't have done it without you. Then we finally, again, let Conner be himself late in the game and scored on a long pass to Burks on LSU's waterboy. Once again, thanks Miles.

Now the sheep are talking about our team not quitting and scoring points and how we made progress. What game were they watching? We could not, I repeat could not stop LSU until they took their foot off the gas. Even then we gave up 2 touchdowns. This is sad, really sad. We were not even light scrimmage for the Tigahs. I don't expect to beat them, but for goodness sake make them try hard to beat us. Jamarcus Russell looked all world out there, Jamarcus freaking Russell! This wasn't Brady Quinn. This wasn't Danny Wuerrfell. This wasn't even Rohan Davey, this was freaking Jamarcus Russell. Our secondary is crap, crap I tell ya.

The coaching of this team continues to amaze me. Croom said the only way to beat LSU is to come out and go head to head. What planet are you from Croom? You cannot go head to head with a team vastly more talented than you. Next up is a butt whooping from West Virginia. Pay attention Croom, you will see real coaching on saturday.
