So much for getting off to a slow start. I'm pretty sure JaMarcus checks HTF right after the team movie on Friday nights just for that extra motivation... by the way, you suck balls. Two incomplete passes ain't gonna work in Tigertown, freak.
Go go gadget armI didn't quite feel like making the crosstown drive to Shoal Creek Saloon, so I was prepared to pick up a radio broadcast somewhere online and let the soothing voice of Jim Hawthorne join me and Incompressible Flow. But apparently you can't get Tiger broadcasts from 870, or anyone, online. Terrible.
Just when I was prepared to Gamecast it begrudgingly, my own yahoo.com had 'Watch Mississippi St. at LSU live' (!). Right as I joined the broadcast, Craig "Buster" Davis was pinballing his way in for a 7-0 lead.
Your QB rating is not nearly where it needs to be, JRThe game was never in doubt, even with Omarr Conner playing better than he ever dreamed of. Sportscasters would say our offense was 'workmanlike'; that's usually a term reserved for teams who can run the football. Justin Vincent is the personification of jaded senioritis-- he could absolutely do anything right now and I wouldn't be fazed. Actually, him running for ten yards on first down might require its own column. But Tiger fans still have taken a liking to Charles Scott, since, for one, he hasn't eaten himself into a higher 40 time and subsequent blown NFL opportunity. Scott looked moderately good against a supposedly decent State front seven. We'll definitely see next week (when he should get the start).
It's pretty difficult to find a cool-looking Chaz Scott photoJaMarcus had a career day: 18/20, 330, 3 TD to three different receivers. He also had the best ball I've ever seen him throw, which is kind of impressive. It was just your garden-variety flushed-out-of-the-pocket, off-of-one-foot, 55-yard heave to the freshman tight end in coverage. Um, yes, he's the best quarterback on the team.
Defense played tough early, and in the middle of the 2nd, we had one more point (35) than they had yards of offense (34). Pellini must love those statistics as much as I do.
Jake, however, is DECEPTIVELY ATHLETICWhat's up with giving up 17 points, though? Uh, we're surrendering 7.4 points per game now, which most certainly won't be #1 in the country. And the second-string defense looks like shiit, against Omarr Conner and Anthony Scelfo, no less. Herbstreit says we're the best defense in the land, though, and that's gospel.
That rain delay really took the wind out of our sails, and those shots of the team lying prone in the locker room weren't too comforting, either. You realize we play the fifth-ranked team next week, right? I wanted Miles to be a lot more pissed off than he was, and we'll see what happens during the week. We simply gave up way too many yards in the second half against an offense our anything-string defense is better than. Blame it on the delay, I guess, but I wanted some more shots of Miles getting pissed, Lincoln Financial.
I'm guessing Dad didn't leave the metal bleachersSo onto Gainesville next week. We match up really well against UF, but something just doesn't seem right here. I'm worried JR will regress into 2004 mode, except there's no Marcus Randall to back him up. Also, Florida won't lose to Mississippi State this year, either.
