McNeese scored with 1:53 left in the game to tie the score at ACU, but ACU moved the ball quickly down the field to score with 13 seconds left in the game for a 17-10 lead. HBU wins at Northwestern St.

LU losing all their DBs from last year is beginning to show. I don’t think LU has any big time receivers to get them back into the game.

Lamar settles for a field goal on their 3rd possesion of the second half to close the gap to 8 points with 3:56 left in the third quarter.

SLU responds to the LU field goal with another touchdown to take a 42-27 lead with 39 seconds left in the third quarter. LU defense seems to have run out of gas.

SLU scoring easily now.

Cards offense wakes up and moves the ball crisply in for a touchdown with 11:47 left in the game to pull back to an eight point deficit. If the defense can make a stop LU still has a chance.

Need a defensive stop here.

Lamar forces a three and out for SLU including a good punt return to get the ball at the fifty yard line.

Come on defense...

Can LU pulloff another miricle? SLU attempting a clinching field goa with1:51 left in the game.

No pass rush all game.i thought that would be a strength of this team.

Field goal good for SLU to extend the lead to 45-34.

The defense needs a lot of work!

Final score SLU 45 - LU 34

That last touchdown we allowed is in the coaches.showed blitz and they check the play.got to check out the blitz

I said the exact same thing to my brother. We had plenty of time to audible out of that blitz

I liked offensive scheme better than what I saw last year. Hoy has been a big disappointment to me so far. He stunk tonight. Defense, uggh, that was ugly. Front 4 can get no pressure. Overall defense was lousy. Looks like offense could be pretty good unless Hoy continues to suck. 14-33??? Awful.

If hed been more accurate, he coulda had 500 yards passing.

I know it was a crappy, rain filled week....but our guys looked gassed and were dropping like flies with cramps. Sela didnt seem to have that problem.

 

Schultz’ “Faster, bigger, stronger” just ran into “more faster, more bigger, more stronger”

To be honest, I don't know what to think. I still think LU is good but, damn, like puddin tane posted, I know it was a crappy, rain filled week....but our guys looked gassed and were dropping like flies with cramps. Sela didnt seem to have that problem. Schultz’ “Faster, bigger, stronger” just ran into “more faster, more bigger, more stronger”

What the hell is going on, in the conference? Is SELA that much better? HBU is scoring points like it is a basketball game, the same with Sam, and UIW scored just 6 vs Sam and that was right before they boarded the bus to go home. To be honest, I don't know what to think.

If Hoy was hurt the previous 2 games then he should keep getting better unless he gets hurt again. SLU could be contending for the conference title so I'm holding off judgement until next game.

First of all, I know a lot of you are preoccupied with flood recovery and we're praying that things improve as quickly as possible in SE Texas.

 

As for the game: In my opinion, you guys are better than you were last year, especially compared to the time we played you. I read some of the criticism of Hoy but I thought he played well and gave us fits with his mobility and ability to throw the ball on the move. The Lamar program is definitely headed in the right direction. Wish you guys well the rest of the season.

Thanks for the compliment Lion. I agree overall LU appears to have improved but the big problem coming up for both SLU and LU is it looks like almost all of the rest of the conference teams have improved as well. Injuries may ultimately determine the conference champs. Only one conference game had less than 20 points scored by at least one of the two teams and in three of them the winner scored at least 40 including HBU who have been a doormat in previous years.
