I wasn't forecasting the future, but we had at least three emerging stars in this game, Steve looked very good in his first real shot at QB, Conrad showed what a star he can be, and Snell was simply amazing. Then the rest of our offense also performed very well, 62 points not a bad day at the office. Then Boom had his normal sterling performance, but I may hve been most impressed with him sticking his nose in there and getting the tackle on Barker's interception, not a prima donna., And how many passes did Timmons drop? The offense played great the whole game once they got started and they did it under a lot of pressure.
Snell looked like the real deal, big, fast, moves, and what an attitude, amazing game for a true freshman. I think he has the tools and attitude to play against anyone.

I don't claim to be able to predict how they will do next week, the D did look terrible, but I doubt if you can predict the future any better than I can, lots of fans thought we would have to outscore the opponent to win any games this year, and the first half of the first game and this game makes it seem at least possible.
As far as the skuzball goes he is a perfect fit at UL with Tricky Ricky and jurich's motley crew, too bad the NCAA ran hurtt off, even though they were too incompetent to do a real investigation, where the house of Cards would have all fallen down------still a big possibility.
And NO, we couldn't have had BP when we had an opening, WKU was one of probably a VERY few that would have hired him when he was available. It was ridiculous for jurich to throw all that money at him even a year later, who was he bidding against, and there were several other openings at the time.
Hey, it would only be a short trip to follow your hero...
