thinking next-week lsu
I think we are trying to improve for next week. Period. I do not think anybody is thinking about anything else.
thinking lsu two
I think there are some things that we got accomplished in the last two weeks. Our defending was good and our offensive line took some strides, but we will look at it and analyze it so it will be a long day tomorrow.
thinking lsu games
I do not think the crowd affected us, but the position of being in a big time game may well have affected us.
thinking lsu speed
We threw passes enough that we were prime to catch them and get up to speed. I think we will be fine there.
thinking lsu needs
I do not know what to think of it. We are working hard and improving and we just need to execute better.
hard-work thinking lsu
I think all of our guys work hard and want to improve. They want answers, and the film will be the answer. The coaches will collect it and get better. I do not think anybody wants a rebuilding year. That's not something that I have ever said.
thinking issues lsu
I'd be the first one to tell you that I would like to think that I had called timeout before that. I can't imagine that I did not. I can't tell you that I did, and that's my issue.
control
We have to control him. He's their big playmaker.
additional creates justin opportunity step
This now creates an opportunity for Justin and Shyrone to step up and get some additional carries.
expect short
We don't expect him back in the short term.
apartment both certainly drain family kick people players several
Several of our players have more people (evacuated family and friends) in their apartment than they have any right to have in their apartment. And you can't kick them out because certainly it's the right thing. And they're not sleeping, and some of them don't have their own bed. There's some drain on our players both emotionally and physically.
change cover degree good press week zone
Those things can be adjusted. There will be a differing degree of 'come get ya' and press and cover one and a good zone attack. That variance will change week to week.
might next team worst
This team (LSU) might be the worst team to play if you're the next team,
banner early forward great justin terms three
It's early to guess, but I think in terms of our three tailbacks, I think Justin Vincent is going to have a banner year. He's unselfish. He's the right kind of person. He's improving, and I look forward to him having a great year.
