I've noticed this message board occasionally does that.  Strange.
it usually involves alcohol

In my case I'm only here during work hours and they don't let me drink on the job no matter how much I lobby for it.

Hudson Card to enter portal. Nothing surprising and I can't blame him. I wish him the best wherever he ends up next, which might be SMU.

So, how do LH fans view the season so far?  Mixed?  Pretty decent?  Better than expected?  Terrible?

Before the season I believed 8-4 was an appropriate expectation that would show progress and improvement, so overall I'm happy with the season.  I'm sure lh320 will be surprised at that statement. :)

As always though,  the devil is in the details.  The team has improved in some areas, but shown no progress or actual regression in others.  I'm hopeful that our freshman QB grows and improves substantially before next season.

The most pleasant surprise for me, has been the improvement in the o-line.  They're not world beaters just yet, but even being average, is a significant improvement over the craptacular olines we've trotted out pretty much every single year since 2007.

Considering we are coming off a bad season last year with a green freshman QB and a average OL plus a huge question mark at defense if we win our Bowl Games and go 9 and 4 Id say we had a better then expected season and a very good chance to have an even better team next year

I give this team an over all B+

My pleasant surprise has been our defense as far as tackling.  We did a much better job over last year.

Tackling definitely improved, too.  It's actually... decent.  It's been since, I don't know, 2008 or 2009, since we could say that.
