Fishhead Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 So far this season, thru 4 games, one issue has stuck out to me more than any other. And it's scary. Sleep Walking. So far LSU has opened up every game ready to play. It's been refreshing to see, but it's also been short lived. It's not just against the "rent a wins"/"Cupcakes" on the schedule, although that's the most frustrating. I mean, against Miami, I thought, well Miami is a talented well coached team, and they made adjustments. Same with AU. But Southeastern and La Tech?? And it's not relegated to one unit. The defense is just as guilty as the offense. So I did a little research (knowledge is power) and came away with some...good news? Sleepwalking — also known as somnambulism — involves getting up and walking around while in a state of sleep. More common in children than adults, sleepwalking is usually outgrown by the teen years. We're a young team. Even those with age/experience are new to this team or new in their roles. So as a team, young. Let's hope they grow out of it, and be thankful so far it hasn't affected the 1st, or more importantly, the 4th quarter. LSU, especially the defense, has woken up in the 4th in each game. The offense is a little younger, and therefore, has taken a bit longer to wake up. Hopefully they grow out of it altogether quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nutriaitch Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 i’m not sure what to think of this team just yet. Bad news is that we have a tendency to drop our guard and allow our opponent to land a few punches. Good new is that we’ve shown that we can take a punch and get back up swinging. But looking out over the horizon, there’s a couple fighters on the schedule that can land knockout blows. We cannot let those guys land uncontested punches.

Nutriaitch Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 last night was MUCH better. still had a little lull during a stretch of the 3rd. but nowhere near to the level we’d previously seen. 2 more weeks of being favored to get it perfect before the big two happen.

Just Me Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 Agree with Nooch that last night was better. They played more of the second qtr, but save the last couple of minutes of the third qtr, they were awol. This team has to play the entire game if they want to hang with teams like Inbred Gumps and UGA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We moved the ball up and down the field, but turned it over. It was nothing like the previous games. The turnovers were the difference. Defensively, they did exactly what they wanted. Made em run it up the middle. At that point, so what if it was successful. They weren't gonna score in bunches. Just let dbu lock down nwo and the game is over. NWO quit.

Hatchertiger Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 DBs locked down the outside for the most part and kept the throws inside and in front of them. They also did a good job of covering after containment was lost. Ole Piss couldn't run it down our throats. Offense moved the ball on the ground and we killed them with play action. Perfect game? No. Result = W Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ole Piss moved us up and down the field. 3 and out on 1st possession. Except the roughed the goldenshower outta Von Rosenberg to keep the drive alive. Spotted us another 15yds later same drive. 3 and out on next drive too. flipped the switch back in again for the following drive as an answer to Ole Piss td. again, this is much improved from previous games. but still a work in progress Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fishhead Posted October 1, 2018 Author Share Posted October 1, 2018 That other 15 yards they spotted is was at the end of a big play that resulted in a first down without the penalty. Not like it kept the drive going. But yes, Ole Piss is a horribly coached team and very undisciplined. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
