I thought it was a big deal. One of our few defensive stops, and we cough the ball back right away.

OBJ made up for it later in the game, but it was a big deal in terms of the momentum and points swing.

It was not the sole reason we lost, but it was the most pivotal play of the game. We had offensive momentum and had an opportunity to take the lead on that drive. We do that and score again, we have a two possession game. Instead they get a TD on a short field. Most crucial individual play of the whole game.

I must have missed that touchdown catch.

He single handedly cost us that game. That was a turning point and he overplayed his ability. Take that miffed punt away and UGA is left with no touchdown and LSU puts up at least three or seven points. That would have been good enough for the win.

Certainly did not help our cause. Shifted momentum.
We could have gotten the advantage of playing up instead of behind the rest of the game.
HUGE mistake but the defense was not even close to being in that game. Gapping holes and a secondary often 10 + yards away from their receivers.
