You know listening to that clip again, I just caught something I never thought about before and I wish Cauble had the balls to throw it back in Kelly’s face at the time.
Cauble asks - What’s wrong with the offense? Kelly says - We won the game. Cable then asks - Okay, what’s wrong on third downs? Kelly’s response - It’s one game, did you see how good we were last game? Then Cauble says - Well people want to know why you can’t run the ball. Kelly’s response - We can run the ball, did you see the last play?
Cauble’s response should have been - Well Brian, that’s one play, did you see all the other runs before that one?

That reaction told me all I needed to know about our chances under his leadership. Complete defensive reaction by him. Either he thinks we’re dumb or he knew deep down there were problems and didn’t want to admit it. A true LSU fan knows excellence when we see it, and we know the traits needed for a team to have a chance to win a championship.
Brian Kelly and Nussmeier hid Nuss’ injuries to the detriment of the team. Brian Kelly failed to address the offensive line struggles and the inconsistent play calling from his low-rent Offensive Coordinator. And now we’re pretty much out of it, facing the reality that it would take a miracle to run the table, running the table mind you with the same personnel and coaches.
We are in year 5 now with an expanded 12-team playoff and we’ve really not even been close to getting in under his tenure. He is a top 5 paid coach, or was until recently. But we’re not getting Top 5 program results from him, just excuses.
I’m done with him. And I think he knows the fan base is too. This was the year we had all of the pieces to get over the hump, a fifth year senior QB and a greatly improved and expensive defensive roster, and we’re practically out of it 7 games in. That’s why his demeanor at the press conferences has changed after these two losses, from beating on desks and yelling at reporters to this deer in the headlights, almost stoic posture. He knows it’s another year of not making the playoffs.
Goodbye Brian.

He’s already left the team high and dry to preserve his own eligibility. Why would that surprise anybody?

Wouldn’t mind it if Maldy joined the coaching staff in some capacity. Didn’t he contribute to our offensive approach by being able to scout the opposing team’s pitcher? Plus, just his ability to keep Framber from melting down so much is a quality you can’t teach. Imagine what he could do with our staff.
I don’t know what’s true or not true, but usually all rumors have some basis of fact behind them. And there are a lot of rumors swirling around Nuss this year regarding whether he put in the work in the offseason, whether he spent enough time in the film room using VR equipment, what injury he sustained, how much that injury affected his play,
All I can tell you is what I’ve seen with my own eyes. He plays scared a lot. He gets rid of the ball too early to avoid getting hit. He has been inaccurate in putting the ball where the receiver can gain YAC. He stares down receivers and telegraphs throws too often and he throws off his back foot a lot.
The oline has contributed to his poor play and so has the play calling. The coaching staff makes the ultimate decision to play him and there was a stretch of games that he probably shouldn’t have been playing at all.
It’s unfortunate, because it comes across as selfish from him, or blind allegiance to him from the coaching staff.
So, you can blame him for his lack of preparation in the offseason or study in the film room if those things are true, but all of the other issues fall strictly on Kelly, including the decision to play him.

This is why Sloan needs to be fired today. Not tomorrow, not after the season. Now!
We ran for 4.8 yards a rush. But Sloan thinks we have to throw those quick sideline throws to supplement the run game. But when your receivers can’t block it’s a wasted play.
All those ball control type passes out wide earned us 14 first downs against a mid tier sec defense. Pathetic!
He needs to go!

Touchdown here and it’s over. And so is the season. I don’t think the defense can make enough adjustments to stop this offense. Especially having your two best players out in weeks and gooden.
Don’t care how negative that sounds. Offense has to be perfect today and it’s not.

Offense fizzles, special teams gives up a huge return and gives them momentum. Defense can’t get off the field once again in an away game. This is the ole miss game all over again. And it won’t end any differently.
Brian Kelly is not the answer!

Lined up offsides. This team isn’t ready at all
Just fricking give it to them. Just wasting time
This is not just a barometer game for the team. It’s a barometer game for the program.

I have an off the wall reason.
Didn’t we finally win the toss and elected to defer? We received the ball first in every other game that we won. First time we win the toss and we lost.

You know, there are always signs when a guy isn’t the right fit. We all defended the fake accent at the basketball game when it happened. Came across as disingenuous.
Fast forward to now and there are more things he says that seem disingenuous. I hope he proves us all wrong but his track record here says the ole miss loss won’t be close to being the last one.

Coach Kelly, you mentioned the need to play complimentary football. At what point are you going to add complimentary coaching to the equation?

Nuss is getting outplayed by an fcs qb and Kelly and baker are getting schooled by Kiffen.
If Brian Kelly was the coach he thinks he is he’d bench Nuss and let him watch. If he’s hurt then he needs to sit. If he’s not hurt he needs to sit because he is absolute garbage today. He’s had plenty of time to throw but he just can’t see the field.
