maybe Les foresaw this (the weak punting game to come) when he brought in the guy from Arizona, I remember reading that his specialty is punters/kickers.
I sat behind Byrd's mom. She is probably the biggest LSU fan ever. She is extremely nice and talked to every Tiger fan who made a comment to her about her son. I also noticed Doucet and Highsmith on the sidelines for the first half. Recruits were also walking up and down our section the whole time. I have some pics and video I will try and put up when I get back to my house Monday.
it will be either Jasper or Alleman in the season. Jasper did have one of 51. So let's just hope the bad one was just a shank. I've seen him kick. He will be decent.
One of them was a shank, another was just BAD. Then Chad Jones mishandled a punt... Bad day overall for special teams.
AMEN. I was disgusted with the fact that we seemed to have the action "turn it's back to us" the entire first half. If you are going to do that, then just go one way with it from the 50 or something. Let the punters and kickers go practice (and they definitely need it) somewhere. Kickoffs suck anyway, with the backyard church function two hand touch rule. I didn't like the way the QB's seem to go one direction with the passing, and they EYEBALL the receiver. What is up with Charles Scott???
Ran into Doucet and took a pic for some random fella of him and early with the guy's phone. Surprised by how solid Doucet is. He's been Moffitized fo sho. Also rubbed elbows (literally) with Bobby Hebert outside the stadium. Left him alone, seems like good people though. My seats were west side 50yl, 10 rows from field. Watched big Herm and Ciron goof with kids along the sidelines the entire time. Those two seem like folks you'd want to be around - as a first impression. Oh - and thank you Tiger Band - you guys were awesome as always. The endzone positioning seemed to work very well accoustically. Of course, 60,000 of our friends were absent, so who knows.
