F those GT fans that are upset about the fake punt. That DIRTY chop block right off the bat deserved anything we wanted to answer with short of another chop block. Also i recall their star DE making a dirty play. anybody remember what he did? The fake punt was for the referees because they made a few calls-no calls that kept us out of the endzone.

They did it all night long. They took out Alexander and RJF with chop blocks.

That "dirty chop block" wasn't intentional. The fake punt was, FWIW. I'm not saying I disagree with Miles' decision, but you can't argue that.

No reason to be an arse. We beat them fair and square. The officiating was strict, but fair.

If they chop blocked it was called. the refs didn't allow that stuff to go on (unlike SEC refs). Tech uses cut blocks and that is not dirty.

Cut blocks are legal...saw plenty of cut blocks by LSU on the edge for the designed running plays by JJ. They were well executed.

Chop blocks are certainly not intentional. It is typically when our guard misses his assignment and takes the DT that our center already has up high instead of going out to get a LB. This identical misread has happened about 6 or 7 times this year.

I tihnk it also had to do with the late hits on JJ, I noticed they were bringing the wood late on him, and he took some pretty good hits. I tihnk it was a deliberate action by LSU as a whole, players and coaches to grind GT some. Just my take.

That was chicken shite by Miles at that point in the game. He's lucky GT didn't follow it up with a intentional knee shot on Jefferson.....some coaches would call for that.
