Mississippi State Bulldogs (official thread)

[colobuck79]

I would argue that Luke did one hell of a job given the cir cumstance. He lost to Corn because he had no backup QB. He had five starters that were allowed to return on different weeks. He damn near beat Michigan with a receiver who was only back for the last two weeks. But most important, he held the together so that UBS didn’t walk into an empty cabinet .

Luke had Kenny Guiton dressed and ready to go. He put the wrong QB in. When I saw Bauserman walk into the game with a 21 point lead, I turned to my wife and said "we just lost." I hate being right all the time.

Bauserman wasn’t responsible for Nebraska’s moderately-good running game racking up 9 ypc in the second half.

True. But a quarterback who could take some time off the clock would have won the game for the good guys.

Sure, that implosion was a total team effort.

I’m too lazy to look it up, but I can’t remember a first down when Bauserman was in there. So the defense just maybe got worn down a wee bit.

1 completion for 13 yards. It isn't a certainty, but there's a good chance it went for a first down.
But 9 incompletions is a lot of clock stoppages.



So... yeah - completed for a first down, plus 15 yards also gives them an automatic first down. I'll count it.
That drive had several first downs - all the others were running.
But if someone can keep the clock running, I think Ohio State wins.

Edit: Really, who gives a shit now? It's done.

Just don’t accidentally include Slidell behind it!

would be an easy "mistake" to make.
Slidell is more Mississippi than Louisiana.

Having lived in Mississippi for periods totaling a little over 2 years while in the Air Force, I fully and enthusiastically endorse this idea.
