Time to move on, the southeastern game is behind us and the main thing I took away from that game is no matter how easily we move the ball inbetween the 20s, we gotta clean things up in the red zone. I would say we need to not settle for field goals but we can’t even make those.
I think Fourcade could have a huge night if we don’t get pressure and force them into some 3rd and longs. Those receivers can make some plays and they are explosive when they get rolling. Anyway, we played them tough last year and maybe we can cook up some evil juju in Turpin and pull of an upset, I don’t know.

Nicholls is a very talented team. Definitely need to clean some areas up if we are going to have a chance to knock them off.
Moved the ball very well against SLU, just didn’t convert that into points.

It’s gonna take our defense playing the best they’ve played all year and offense getting points on every red zone opportunity. Even though I know we are big underdogs I’m really excited to make the trek from Dallas for this one Saturday.

We certainly can't sleep walk in the 1st half in this game but good news is this game isn't a post-BYE week game so I think we'll see better execution in the first half against nicholls. Gotta get some TO's and keep Forcade from playing like he's at the Arcade!
We aren't going to make the playoffs but it would be so sweet to get a W against nicholls and possibly ruin their playoffs hopes by being the game that kept them out!

I would be more than happy if we caused Nicholls to miss out.
Technically we can still make the playoffs if we win out

Left about 10 points on the board but we are playing hard and going toe to toe with a very good nicholls team. 14-10 colonels at the half.

Could not have shot ourselves in the foot anymore than we did tonight. Frustrating game to say the least.
Gotta credit nicholls though. They’re solid.

We just don’t have the horses in our front seven to play in the upper tier of this conference yet. I like our effort but penalties absolutely killed us and once again we left about 10 points on the board which would’ve changed the game and cut it to one possession. Nicholls is a top 20 fcs program and showed it tonight. Best of luck to them on the rest of the year.

Yep we didn’t come close to rushing for 100 yards and the Nicholls front seven you mentioned had everything to do with that. Yet we also had a chance early to get on top of them and left points on the table. We’re not to the point where we can afford to do that. Still I like the effort like blocking that FG. Got to forge ahead.

I have to check myself and remember that we are in a rebuilding mode and this is only Laird’s 5th game. I’m just honestly so effing tired of losing.

Just list to a better team but the gap is closing. Tired of losing but I like where we are headed.

I was tied up with work and didn't get to watch or listen. Sounds like SLU game - Part 2. Why was there a QB change? Seems Eppler hasn't been as sharp since the Lamar game.

I’m not sure why holgorssn replaced Eppler. He wasn’t playing stellar but not bad enough to get benched.

Missed scoring chances early not all on the starting QB but I guess our coaches at some point during the 40 minute drought felt a change might help. As it turned out Eppler got back on the field after Holgorsen got his bell rung. I still have confidence in both QB’s to produce.
