All I was doing was making a point from my origional post which was what I would do if I was coach. I'm NOT being Negative! Originally posted by Sourdoughman I also thought when the game started, Why don't we take the ball the 2nd half and put the strong part of our team, defense on the field first with the offense struggling? We might get better field position or a turnover to start the game and maybe help out the offense! I would do this as long as the offense struggles!!!
The Bright spot that I do also see is I hope it turns out like 2 years ago, we will WIN the rest of our games then!!!
If all u have seen is Negative, then you need to look around my friend, I have quite a few positive posts here today. You should Read before Responding my friend! Geaux Tigers
we chose to take ball first because we wanted to get the offense going early, every article about the LSU/Florida game said a key for the tigers would be to deliver the knockout punch by scoring early and often...we knew that our defense was reliable, we just needed to put our offense out there to see how they would perform and build some confidence.. they knew if they put the offense out there and got them going early , it would have been a blow out like it was supposed to,,, unfortunatly for us the offense never got going
I see, I didn't know that . Thanks for responding nicely Thibodaux. As u know, going into next week I personnally have the opposite approach because how many teams drive very far on thier first drive against us. I think field position is very important this week, we need positives to get the offense going whether its a turnover or field position.
ohhhhhh, do I need to post on your schedule?!? It's a message board, NOT instant messenger. Read my reply on the other thread....apology accepted.
