That opening kickoff compounded by dumb shite fourth down calls doomed the team.

It’s easy for some to shrug off huge moments like that as just part of the game, but that opening sequence allowed Tennessee to play loose and aggressive on both sides of the ball all game while LSU had to fight out of that hole. It was a huge factor in how the whole game played out.


When we had finally seemed to get some momentum, got the TD and another stop, we had a chance to go into halftime down 20-10, or even better, but bad coaching calls ended up costing us the points.

UT ended up getting 3 before half, and took the opening half possession for 7, so instead of 20-10, we didn’t get the ball back until it was 30-7.

Just massive mistakes and mismanagement that honestly would have been incredible to overcome.

Tennessee is a good team and they made us pay for every mistake, while we never made them pay for any that they made. We just made it easy for them all day.

I definitely think it would have played out differently if Bech doesn’t muff that kick or even just let’s it go and possibly go out of bounds setting us up with field position to start the game.


But good teams bounce back, and no time to dwell for this team and staff, because another bad showing against a much weaker Florida team will truly have the sky falling in BR.

Come out and get a win in The Swamp and a lot of fears will be eased.


Huge week for Kelly and what he’s trying to build.

We go 2/3 on 4th downs and Tenn converts 1 less and we likely have a close game
