Northwestern showin some life in the 2nd half, making things very interesting.

 

Andddd they drop an easy 4th down conversion.....

 

 

Well damn, valiant effort by the Cats to make things interesting.

Nice effort but really really dumb plays at times. Almost looked not ready to play.

Catchable ball, but it was also thrown behind him. Simien's scattershot accuracy + several drops= bad offense.

Winston didn't look good tonight. USC and their new offense was very impressive. I know it's very early, but there doesn't seem to be a team in the country that is leaps and bounds better than everyone else.

Georgia was impressive to me.

Yep. Couldn't they just run Gordon until the clock ran out.

No, let's give him 3 carries or whatever in the 2nd half.

 

This is just me, but after last night's struggle, I think they should try something different at QB. Maybe grab a safety or something and let him start. Mix it up a bit.

They have a throwing QB.

 

Of course once they lost 2 key defenders to injury LSU started to move the ball.

It can't be overstated how much Lane Kiffin brought that team down.

i think Fitzgerald is going to have to step back and realize that the golden boy luster CAN wear off, and stop having some of the bizarre press conferences he has had the past couple years.

 

I was a fan of his, but he is slowly becoming unlikeable.

He has gone from enthusiastic and excited to passive aggressive and moody. Maybe that contract is weighing on him

I think that he is also realizing how important recruiting blue-chip talent is in football. He had his early successes with his "system" guys or finding diamonds in the rough. Sure you can have good seasons doing that from time to time, but it is hard winning year after year with that method. Get a few injuries or a good player wants to play "closer to home" and suddenly that system doesn't run as smoothly.
