Per LSUSports.net: OXFORD, Ms. — LSU and Ole Miss combined for 1,343 yards of total offense on Saturday night at Vaught-Hemingway Stadium, but the No. 20 Rebels came out victorious, 55-49, as quarterback Jayden Daniels‘ final attempt into the end zone as time expired fell incomplete.

Tonight marked a record for combined total yardage (1343) in a game that LSU was involved in (previous was 1328, LSU at Ole Miss 2019).

While Saturday positioned the Tigers’ offense among the elite in college football, it was the lack of stops from the defensive side of the ball that proved to be critical.

Maybe LSU could apply to join the Big 12. Offense isn't bad, but not good enough to cover the missed tackles, blown coverages, porus D line, slow DB's, and general ineptness of the defense. New D coach? If head coach Kelly can't see the problems, say goodby to him too.

I’d say the PAC 12. With two teams in the league they’d have a chance of at least being .500 in league play.

706 yards of Ole Miss Offense. Outscored LSu 21-7 in the 4th Quarter. Yikes.

Ready to move on from both coordinators. Bad play calling and execution in the 4th from the offense. Embarrassing all night on defense.

Went conservative up two scores and it cost us. We scored 49 because King Daniels had his superman cape on again.

The offense was close to perfect: nearly pulled off an unlikely win. I agree that series with three minutes left was brutal tho

False starts at the worst times , 12 men on the field multiple times , horrible clock management, 1000 missed tackles. REALLY!!!!

I could list a litany of "if theys..", but to your point on the single coaching mistake that by itself would have clinched the game, during the second to last possession where we ended up having to punt, on 3 downs, LSU snapped the ball with 19, 21 and 27 seconds on the play clock, which was running with the game clock. Had they burned the extra 1:04 that they should have on those three downs just by snapping the ball with 1 second left, Ole Piss wouldn't have had time to score. Game over! It doesn't excuse the pathetic defense but, it would have secured an ugly win. Totally inexcusable for a coach earning that kind of money.
