  1. Gonna be hilarious when the SEC makes them to go to 9 conference games and makes Bama or Auburn their new permanent rival. Gone will be the days of their favorable schedules and 5 free wins
  2. Exactly and his 3rd down numbers are absolutely terrible as well. Casey: Hudson: Card obviously has a much smaller sample size but he played two of the three toughest defenses we have seen so far.
  3. Card would have definitely had the same success as Thompson against Rice. Maybe in the Tech game he doesn't have 6 TDs but Tech wasn't slowing anybody down that day. Everybody knows Card was bad against Arkansas but that goes for everybody else that played and coached that night. The point is that benching Card for a bad game in his first road start against a team that was much better than anticipated is more short sighted than anything. Thompson was bad all day against TCU, the 2nd half against OU, and the last 3 of Ok State. If the WR is not wide the hell open then Casey is not going to move the ball efficiently. All he had to do was sustain one drive in each of the last two 2nd halves and Texas is sitting at 6-1 right now. This is not a one game over reaction, he has been showing signs for weeks that he is a limited QB that needs everything else to go right to be effective.
  4. In the last two second halfs Thompson has scored a grand total of 17 points on 12 drives with 8 of those being 3 and outs or worse. This is including 5 in a row to end the OSU game. Please tell me how much lower the floor could be than those stinkers?
  5. PK was at Washington with Woodward. Maybe we get lucky when they hire a DC soon..
  6. Just rewatched both QBs through the Tech game (minus Arkansas cause I value mental health) and if the WR doesn't have 5 yards of space around him then Thompson isn't your guy. Against Louisiana Card saved multiple 3rd down conversions because he threw accurate balls into tight windows. This would have been nice the last two games when the defense keyed in on the pass on obvious passing downs. Card is not a perfect QB but I'd feel confident in him being able to find a way to win at least one of the last two games.
  7. But he would have had just as good if results in the Tech and Rice game. Casey's TCU and OSU game were low bars to clear so why not pulled Thompson since he's put up 9 bad quarters since the Tech game.
  8. He played better than expected game one and awful game two. Why not let the guy who won the competition and has a longer shelf life get those Rice and Tech reps? There's a reason his ceiling is higher than Thompsons and he won't get there by riding the pine.
  9. He also prioritized an OOS project over Weigman (UT was his dream school) and Evers (would have helped with Stewart and the rest of DFW). Thankfully the Manning's seems to trust him but man has he whiffed on the QB front so far imo.
  10. Or maybe they have a point? Card was benched for 2.5 quarters of bad play in his second career game after winning a 8 month QB battle. Nobody else in the media seems to call out the below average to bad play in 9-10 of the last 12 quarters of play for Thompson.
  11. Luckily we added an extra year to his deal compared to the other two buffoons (not that it will matter ultimately). Please tell me this thing wasn't fully guaranteed considering his history on and off the field?
  12. Based on timing and some of the supposed insiders in the LSU world it seems Woodward has his guy. Based on his history of making big splash hires and the prestige of the position I just don't see him zeroing in on Aranda (2-7 last year) or Tucker (5-7 2019 and 2-5 2020) with this much season left. IMO that would leave Fisher, Franklin, Fickell, or maybe Kiffin.
  13. Interesting that they had him hanging out with Card. Would they risk the biggest recruit this decade by hooking him up with a portal risk? Wonder if that says anything about next year's QB room
  14. This was 2 days before Jimbos Bama win and LSU getting whipped by Kentucky. According to Dellenger the negotiations of O and LSU separating started last week presumably after those games. Wonder if the Bama win put Jimbo at the top for the money guys?
  15. This is true but that firing was mishandled from the get go. Woodward is known for hiring coaches and I don't see him being that shortsighted.
  16. Leaked photos of Jimbo this morning
  17. 9.95era probably cost us the OU game this year by being selfish POSs and I wouldn't be surprised if this costs us more. Hope Sark cuts them all out if Roach costs us Banks.
  18. IT is running with him being a maybe for Saturday and a change in their prediction. Let's hope Roach didn't complete F this up
  19. Thamel said they money would be there if needed. Jimbo seems to care about winning again and his best chance is at LSU. The last two coaches are bumbling idiots and backed into championships. Recruiting will get much easier and won't have to worry as much about the UT/OU SEC move.
  20. That would make sense with the recent surge in interest from Louisiana kids.
  21. Oh we know that. LSU is not opposed to mid season firings and my money is on the bye week so they can have a built in reason for a Bama blowout
  22. They have Florida, Ole Miss, Bama, and Arky with only Halloween to break it up. Which game do we think does O in?
  23. Probably tells you how they feel about the rest. Gotta give Jimbo and Elko credit for deploying their bagmen in this manner. They understand that an elite DL covers for an average secondary much easier than the reverse. If Caleb Williams had an ounce of pressure Saturday than we win by 25.
