Completely inexplicable. Still think it all goes back to New Orleans and 21-0.
Yes, and there is no excuse either. :) When they hired Coach Ogre I was stunned that any AD or board could be so stupid. I still am stunned at the stupidity of hiring a known loser for a major university.

I am glad LSU lost (did not watch game though) but how did it happen? Did Darrious Gice or Arden Key not play? I don't know how many injuries they have now. It keeps going back and forth. They are probably saving Gice for big games. I know they have the talent but maybe there is an attitude issue in the locker room? I hope they lose again before we play them and that we dominate them at home.

I've added a transcript for those who don't speak "Yaw-nese"

've been obviously disappointed
00:03
performers who I'll coax it out late
00:06
tonight
00:06
bottom line I know we're not making the
00:15
plays that supposed to play make whether
00:17
the alignment would be the play we call
00:20
an assignment or the critical zero of
00:31
8/3 damn it with 10 of 18 on third down
00:36
they have to our six yard rushing on our
00:39
defense we gave up too many yards
00:41
rushing
00:42
you seem like we got out physical but
00:44
for tonight which is not Tiger football
00:48
and there's something we got to look at
00:49
any question how you keep team together
00:53
you not losing play hard man you have to
00:56
fight hard I'm gonna be a leader I'm
00:57
gonna do my best job ever right now you
00:59
know it's not about pointing fingers
01:00
it's about everybody looking needs it to
01:02
manage mirror and get better start with
01:05
me but you know what everybody you look
01:06
at I took the blame the first time I'll
01:09
take it again but you know what we gotta
01:12
call better place we're gonna stop stop
01:14
on defense we're gonna do better on
01:15
special team we're gonna make plays who
01:17
that guys not they're not making place
01:18
it's supposed to make place get beat at
01:21
the point of attack you know one we're
01:24
just gonna have that first first down
01:25
back I mean I'm going down we get the
01:28
ball and spring back got the bowl I
01:32
should have done a better job of game
01:33
lüt and this stuff it was not aware
01:35
that we're gonna do that and I think
01:37
that's not the way we let's talk again
01:45
what has been the problem that you see
01:51
we gotta look at leadership we're doing
01:55
the same thing you did last year when
01:57
ethical we're practicing we have the
01:59
same meetings we have energy looking
02:01
like everything's okay then we're going
02:03
out there when that plays better off so
02:06
I always look at myself worse always
02:09
looking what we do at practice I'll just
02:12
go back to the script always go back to
02:13
what we ran what we did I think it's
02:16
just a matter of we gotta give that we
02:18
had to do better some positions no juice
02:22
who made that call I should've checked
02:33
it yeah
02:35
so everything goes to me no point on the
02:39
pills anybody I'm gonna have that call
02:40
back Darryl would've got the pole so is
02:43
it a miscommunication you're Melissa
02:45
thank you you know you know Danny got a
03:07
little bit he could went back in the
03:10
third wanted to give them all the shot
03:11
we needed a boost
03:12
yeah he made some big bucks you did and
03:15
then obviously an interception at the
03:17
end was critical so we put Danny back in
03:20
as a difficult deal right now because we
03:24
can't move the ball we missing some key
03:28
plays with Danny in there would give him
03:31
a chance he goes in there but you know
03:34
it's not about how experienced and I was
03:36
a critical intercepts we were driving to
03:38
get the game closer and get a burning
03:42
timeout before that fourth
03:44
conversion just what happened there cuz
03:46
I know you don't obviously want to do
03:48
that down yeah yeah just on a matter of
03:51
communication or a matter of us getting
03:53
the right thing the right thing that we
03:55
wanted just what we did
04:00
well help 206 yards rushing that's not
04:03
good you know obviously I'll watch the
04:04
film and it bounced everybody stopped
04:07
the line that's the line backer of the
04:10
safety fit and you're a big run was a
04:13
misfit my young player you wanted his
04:16
gap but he wanted to we've missed a lot
04:18
of tackles we should tackle but we've
04:20
got to beat on fun of us and that block
04:22
and attachment we started to pressure on
04:24
offensive line and there were some
04:27
mistakes I don't know it was only then
04:40
we discussed it as question and opposite
04:44
woman try to win the game that was my
04:49
decision we all said that this would
04:50
might be a little bit early but I'm a
04:52
business coach obvious is longing
04:54
players to different teams but fans have
04:56
been a wonderful team in the bowl game
04:58
the stretch of football you're all now
05:02
ever done we're not playing the same
05:04
we're not playing as a team we're not
05:07
doing a good job coaching on run store
05:09
with me we're not the same thing that
05:11
was in the bowl I think we'll more
05:13
efficient I'd ever think that we did
05:16
with both practice the way we called
05:19
plays the Weaver ran plays the way we
05:22
played defense now we have five minutes
05:23
left up defense that are startlingly the
05:26
fell right now I know that's happened
05:28
LSU before but we're missing those guys
05:30
and those guys gonna make some little
05:32
plays with mr. this perfect in practice
05:40
on Thursday go in I guess someone's back
05:53
who's the first family think that's
05:55
gonna stop he made that decision he
06:15
worked for those guys don't see nothing
06:22
he saw he couldn't practice this week
06:25
he's first of all you mentioned Owen
06:29
eight on third down was what happened on
06:31
this high-pressure downtown throws we
06:36
missed some reads we didn't protect well
06:39
overall breakdown
06:48
no back to the drawing board I think
06:51
that done we tried less motion to shift
06:56
so we can have less penalties we can
06:57
have more expects acute it didn't work I
07:00
would try the new quarterback is good
07:02
work there are wounds in play that last
07:07
round is he okay yeah and you you see
07:12
teams usually progress especially from
07:15
your season opener no feel like this
07:17
team is done the opposite
07:19
yeah no question so we you know we
07:22
played a clean game against BYU and
07:25
though we haven't progressed the way we
07:26
want to at this wondrous season the
07:30
seasons not over we won't fight like
07:31
heck no problem sure what game their
07:45
time obviously we did not look past Troy
07:49
we knew troubles with the football team
07:51
when you try to play some top big-time
07:55
college football teams very close like
07:57
comes the hottest year like you here
07:58
2008 it wasn't about tradition not just
08:13
that game in general and down they're
08:14
going to Florida you go on the road now
08:16
you know how fast you have to you know
08:19
turn the page
08:20
This is the most telling part of the interview:

well you know we don't spend a lot of time when that take tomorrow and we're gonna cattle money went up they're gonna go over 25 ruling on the floor with us over candid I guess

Several of our best friends are coaches at Troy. The excitement for the Neal Brown era is awesome here. He's gonna be a hot commodity soon. Of course, I hope he never leaves Troy and he keeps our friends here with him forever, but I know that is unrealistic. People keep dogging this Troy program, but they are GOOD and have a strong will to win. Super pumped for the hometown team today!!

I thought the confusion had gone with The Hat. Ed said of the opening fumble, "I didn't know the third string back would get the ball. I didn't want that. I should have done a better job of planning. :eek2:

I was flipping back and forth between the BAMA and LSU games. Guice did not play. Arden Key played but was a non-factor. (announcers said he may be out of shape). Troy won because they controlled both lines of scrimmage for most of the game and just plain wanted it more. LSU doesn't seem to be too excited to play this year.

Yeah, he seemed to throw his offensive coordinator and his third string back under the bus. He is one of those who always says that he will take the blame, but then after he takes it he starts breaking it up and putting it on others. I'm always happy for someone who gets his dream job, but I don't know if O can handle it.

The way it came out when he said it, it sounded like he was taking a shot at the OC, or at the number 3 tailback. Does Ogre know that the number 2 guy wouldn't have fumbled in the same situation. Based on results to date, this could be an ugly year for LSU.

I always thought Ogre wanted to be buddies with his team rather than in charge. If they want to loaf in practice, I'll be they loaf.

Name a team in this state L6U could beat.
Apparently just yours... sorry Dub couldn't resist. :wink: Good luck Saturday, hope you win it.

I resurrected this thread because it's odd or unfortunate that the LSU loss to Troy could end up keeping Bama out of the playoffs. Be careful what you rejoice for. I tell that to friends all the time when they pull against SEC teams in non conference games.

LSU lost to Troy. That still sucks and we would be looking at a NY6 bowl game if not for that. Apparently O is somewhat capable (even if that means letting his coordinators coach) and I'm proud of the way he kept the team together. Whether or not we can threaten in the West is TBD, but it looks a lot better now than it did on 9/30/17.

Since this thread is resurrected it gives me the chance to compliment the way that the Troy football team played when they won at LSU. They were very impressive and I admired their capability and teamwork on that night. I'm glad that they had a good football season. I think that I might be pulling for them at times in the future. I like the way that they play the game.
