Not All Bad

After reviewing the game film not all is bad. In fact there is quite a few positive things I saw on that tape. We're still a young team and this game will help us learn. Also one thing is very clear: LSU is beatable. We led them for 59 of 60 minutes in their house, Death Valley, at night. Personally I think that nickname is a little overblown, but the fact is I can't say much more since they did come out on top in the end.

But for the second straight game, we lost because our defense couldn't stop a long sustained drive when it mattered most. LSU had 3 drives over 7 min long, including the game winner of 8 min plus. They were also a perfect 5-5 on 4th downs. So this leaves me with one conclusion. I'm going to talk to Coach Meyer about letting me play defense too. I'm thinking linebacker. That's right, I want to play both ways. I'm physically fit & gifted enough to do it. But most importantly I'm just nuts enough to try it. Sometimes our D needs to step it up and I want to be right in the middle of it. I know the defenses are already scared to death of me, why not make opposing offenses feel that fear too.
