Run on 3rd and 15 when we have been effective throwing the ball? Very, very dumb, especially to the short side of the field. smh

As they should. Very poor coaching/play calling.

A touchdown on that last drive would have rocked Army and put us in position to win. I think that might have been our best shot unless the defense has another stop in them.

That was INCREDIBLY STUPID! I’ve never been so incensed with LU football.

How about it? Was that 3rd down about “execution”? Did you misread that it was 3rd & 15? Did you think it was 3rd and 1? 3rd & 5? Or even 3rd down at all?!

I’m an STUNNED at that. And then TG looks dumbfounded afterwards.

Fire him now. I’m literally there. That decision-making is INDEFENSIBLE.

Someone please notify our coaching staff that we have strengths. When we use them and stay aggressive, good things happen. #HisNameIsBuckshot

Maybe if that just keeps happening they will realize that we've got some issues.
I recognize that they work hard from the guy who posted earlier, but the amount of time that you put into something does not mean that you're doing a good job.

I'm fine if it was just our players messing up, but this playcalling hurts me inside.

No but the 2nd Down play was about execution. They execute that there’s no 3rd down

When Mr. Pro-Coaches, Mr. Nuance is saying this, then maybe there’s a point to it.

Just maybe.

If your only defense of a bad third down play call is that second down didn’t go the way you wanted, you’re not ready to be a football coach. Did you select your third down play without watching what happened on second down?

If LU had gone for it on 4th, I’m fine with the call. But to run on 3rd & 15 just to punt it on fourth...you don’t deserve your paycheck. There is no defense for that decision making.

Zero.

None.

That's the last score we can allow and win. We can score on 3 possessions (Barring stupid play calling) but we can't allow them to score anymore.

The 3rd down play was questionable. I actually understand why they did it, but obviously it didn’t work. I think they were trying to be too cute by half
You brought up the “execution” comment. You know as well as anyone you can’t take it in a vacuum. Has they executed a perfectly designed and called 2nd down play then it’s a moot point

I don't think Army is going to give them enough time. Their offense is a clock eater.
