Yes we got humiliated Saturday! I was there and saw the game. But really what did you expect? A highly touted team underachieves for four games-fires their coach and install a local man a true Cajun who is a great motivator! And it was homecoming! They were fired up from the gitgo. Our tigers looked overwhelmed from the beginning dropping passes and interception in the first quarter that perhaps would of lead to a more competitive game but not change the outcome!
I agree the defense was sloppy I sat in the endzone next to three ex-tigers and they were bewildered by the high tackling and the linemen not staying low or over penetrating and getting trapped. The left defensive end and linebacker were literally taken out of every play!
Look< I am not a coach and neither are most of you but I would of put 8 in the box and dared the former Purdue QB to beat rather than give up over 400 yards!
So Coach Odom and his staff along with his players have been brought down to earth-reality! They have two weeks to right the ship improve tackling and splits-Guys I am as upset as any of you but give the guys a chance to earn their money. Frankly, I thought last years defense was overrated-the opposition new we couldn't score so they limited their offense to low risk!
I honestly believe this was a growing learning session for the players and the coaches and expect an improved outcome against Florida- Go Tigers not Geaux Tigers
