All that sounds good, except for when Bama was just shoving it down our offenses throat, I think LSU should have adjusted by throwing the ball downfield to force the Bama defenders to move the 9 players out of the box. So what if you throw a pick? You weren't moving the ball anyway. I say that about any quarterback that was in the game. And if that quarterback couldn't pass the ball down the field, then try another one. Cause it was painfully obvious by the 2nd quarter that we weren't going to move the ball with the game plan we entered the game with.
bama never put 9 in the box. They kept 7 in all night.

THIS

And their 4 man rush whipped our asses ALL night long...while keeping a back in...

So to break it down for the "throw it down field" crowd. We had 4 to throw to, they had 7 to cover. For this to work you MUST get time. WE had none. Tom Brady would have been screwed.
