Why on earth would you think he's not going to get on the field? Are you anticipating that we'll only play our starters the whole game? You think Coburn playing for 40 plus snaps in a row is a good idea? Edited September 2, 20214 yr by Viper

Collins will play every position on the line this year. You'll see plenty of him...he may not be a depth chart starter but he'll be out there as much as any other D-lineman.

September 2, 20214 yr Ian Boyd pointed out that with the injuries and switches this is now the left-side of the Offensive Line: LT: 6-3, 306LG: 6-2, 307OC: 6-0, 288 (he was listed at 267 last year) That's not ideal for Louisiana. Not when you can send waves of Coburn, Sweat, and Collins at them.

They've got a big NT of their own to practice against but no T'Vondre to sub in when he gasses.

September 2, 20214 yr Good lord. I disagree with you saying his play on the field hasn't been up to par with his physical abilities. He was dominant at the end of last year and that was as a freshman.

He was dominant at the end of last year and that was as a freshman. Please point to something that says he was dominant at the end of last year because just saying so, doesn't make it so, and from what I saw, he was not. Coburn, Ojomo, and probably Sweat are all likely still better which is why he isn't starting. With all that said he is likely our most versatile DL and will see plenty of time this year as I stated in my initial post.

I believe every early September game going back well more than a decade has been a 6pm or 7pm kickoff. Yes, it's hot as fuck when you're tailgating and in the first quarter or so, but you know that the sun will go down and the temperature will drop to a more tolerable level. With a 3:30 p.m. kickoff, it's already hot as fuck, you know it will only get hotter as the game progresses, and it won't dissipate until toward the end of the game. For me personally, until last year I had been to every home opener since 1994, so my sweaty ass will be in the stands. But I can still complain about it. Fuck FOX.

September 2, 20214 yr Good lord. Collins isn't starting because he's less experienced and the guys above him are animals in their own right. He will play plenty this year and I wouldn't be surprised if he starts a few games. He's a true soph. He isn't going anywhere.
September 2, 20214 yr I watched the ISU-ULL game last night and it seemed like a perfect storm for ISU. It was an ugly first game back from a long covid break that was decided on three plays. Both offenses stank, which isn't surprising given the circumstances. ISU gave up 257 yards of offense including 78 yards on one play. The defense essentially quit on the last drive when the game was over anyway. Otherwise, they physically dominated ULL as you'd expect. Take away the long TD pass and the last drive of the game and ULL's offense got its ass kicked. On the other side, ISU's offense stank. The line sucked, the play-calling sucked, Purdy really sucked. The interception wasn't totally his fault, but he had some terrible throws that should have been picked off. When he was on target, the receivers dropped the ball. ULL's defense, particularly the secondary, played well as evidenced by ISU's 297 yards of offense. But none of their guys stood out and they weren't doing anything special scheme-wise. They didn't kick ISU's ass. It was more like our offense circa 2014 - ISU's line missed assignments on play after play, receivers whiffed on blocks, etc. ULL was good enough to take advantage of the mistakes and even cause of few. That said, they seemed like a bunch of well coached JAGs. They out ISU'd ISU. There's nothing at all scary about ULL and they need help to win. If Strong or Herman were still around, we'd probably oblige them. I'm hoping Sark isn't as charitable. Our defense should absolutely murder their offense. It's the first game of the year under a new-ish system so I'm sure we'll have some busted plays and probably give up a couple of scores. If we don't shoot ourselves in the dick multiple times on offense and special teams this should be a comfortable win.
