Any chance it was the players who called the last three defensive plays?

This is certainly romanticizing the moment, but what if the players just said, "We are not going to sit back and let this guy have all day to throw."

It has been clear all year long that if the defense played more aggressively we prolly win at least one more game (Ole Miss).

If not the players, then who?

The players Bud Kilmer’ed him? I like the idea. Not sure if true, but I thought about it too.

Like when Josh Booty called a play that they used to run at Evangel. Can’t remember whether it worked or not but the coaches were like WTF. Does Josh have any sons like Jaime Howard does?

What’s really sad is all of us arm chair QBs could see refusing to blitz all season was crazy… especially since the guy got paid millions to play a soft zone and send four down lineman every snap.

Insane it was allowed to go on all season.

He has 2 boys at Evangel. One plays qb and the other plays wr. They don’t have his last name bc he wasn’t really part of their lives for a good bit of time.

Peyton and Parker Fulghum.

He also led us to our first home win over the gumps in over 30 years in 2000.

Not before he ran out of bounds to stop the clock with like a minute or so in the game. We had to wind up punting the ball back to Bama if my memory is correct .I was at that game .

Stop. You people are grasping at straws now and cluttering up the board.

So was I. Shout out to Bradie James and co for convincing the refs to look at the screen and give the ball to LSU (the correct call) instead of the gumps after a fumble

Honorable mention to the mooner on the field who got the crowd back into the game in the second half ;)

From post game presser-

quote:

Q. The defensive pressure you dialed up in the very end, talk about that a little bit.

BRIAN KELLY: So we got out of our dime and nickel package. We got back into some base. The guys were wanting to get into some base. We got into some base defense. Got into some trail coverage. Made it difficult for them to have anything available.


It was certainly player led. House wasnt making those calls in the 2H.

This is the second times in 2 games that Kelly has mentioned running this/crediting this for defenses stops late in games.

Why not run it more/mix it up earlier in games? I’m not saying run it exclusively but call it for a series or two

Didn’t realize Josh Booty was a scummy absent father. Good to know.
