in 3 hours. I am more upset after the LA Tech loss than I was after the Maine loss.
Croom is about as stubborn of a head coach that you are going to see coaching in Division 1. Here's what I can't understand; why was Wesley Carol on the bench in the 4th quarter? Yes, he had thrown 3 INTS, but keep in mind, this is the guy who lead us to an 8 win season last year!! I would much rather have he and his 3 INT's on the field than an inexperienced JUCO transfer from ICC.
I don't understand Croom's relationships with his players. Seems like if you are in his doghouse, you are not getting out of it. Why is Wesley in his doghouse? Last year, Michael Henig threw 6 INT's in the LSU game, started the Tulane game where he threw 1, and was not yanked until the game the following week. Yet, Saturday night, he pulls THE GUY WHO LEAD HIS TEAM TO AN 8 WIN SEASON LAST YEAR?
Croom has already started spewing his Venom (that's right Davey) about how both QB's new they were going to play by committee last night. That's a load of crap. You can't win when you swap out QB's by committee. Your QB has to be your leader. How can you have a leader when both are coming in and out?
Croom also displayed his stubborness by punting with 3:00 + to go in the 4th when we had the ball on our own 45 yard line. This is not the NFL you jack ***. You are down by 8 on your opponents field, and you have one time out left. You don't play field position! Turns out, we got the ball back with :08 left.
Who knows where we go from here. I too agree with NOBSDawg's post: THIS GAME WILL NOT BE FORGIVEN!! We are in year 5 of the Croom era. A good football team goes to La Tech and wins this game. A good football team goes home next week and takes care of SE LA. A good football team gives Auburn a run for their money in two weeks, and if they pull out a win, they appear in the Top 25! People, we are not a good football team. I have said several times over the off season that I believe last year was a fluke! I hate to say I was right, but it looks like I was right. Last year we too one step forward. Last night, we took two steps back!
What happens if SE LA comes to town next week and beats us?
