re: LSU had 4 first half drives

And FSU should have had a FG with 1:20 left and the game would have been over. You can't play "should have" with one team and not the other.

The OP is not saying LSU should have won the game. He's saying the offense moved the ball relatively well for the most part. They just didn't convert that success into points as much as you'd like because of self inflicted wounds. It took LSU only 4 plays to get inside the FSU 10 on the opening drive before a bad snap caused a 14 yard loss. Two drives later they were back inside the 10 until a false start pushed them out...subsequently ending in a blocked FG.

In the second half LSU scored TDs on 3 of 4 possessions. That is frustrating considering LSU literally gave away two possessions by dropping punts.

It doesn't mean LSU should have won the game. But it does provide a basis to think the offense could be solid if they can clean up the turnovers, poor snaps, and ill-timed penalties. All things that are fixable.
