It's a known fact that LSU fans turn on their players real quick, but have any of you seen an LSU player get bashed like Mizzou's kicker did?

If Delahoussaye doinked one off the post from 25 yards out against TAMU with a chance to effectively clinch the West and go to Atlanta, yeah I think it would be similar treatment honestly.

Jefferson caught a lot of it after 1/9. Anyone who does anything like that to college kids playing a game for their school is an incredibly pathetic person.

Sadly, I agree. And it's a goddamn shame.

This would pretty much happen at any school.....especially a 24 yard FG

And 75% of those tweets aren't even bad.

Jarret Lee's was bad but they started a facebook page for JJ and 75% of the posts/messages/comment whatever the frick they do, was racist shite. People show their true colors when you lose.

I remember back when LSU played Auburn in 2005. John Vaughn the kicker for Auburn missed 5 field goals in the game(41, 54, 37, 49, 39). The 49 was to win the game with no time left. The 39 was in OT for the 20-17 LSU win.

I heard Vaughn got back to his apartment I believe. It had been vandalized. He also had death threats on his phone.

He went out that Sunday and I think hit 10 straight field goals from each of his misses.

Was a finalist for the Lou Groza award the next year.

It's still a shame that that kind of pressure is placed on a player like that. Probably feels bad enough for the misses. And comes home to that.

Man, I remember PK Ronnie Lewis catching hell in 1985 for missing a FG that would have beaten Bama. Instead, we tied them 14-14. The next week he makes a kick, the student section gives him jeering applause and he flips off the entire section.

Everybody is tough in cyber space. I guarantee if one of those people said that to his face (which none of them would), they would forever be known on campus as "that guy that got his arse beat by the kicker". Internet tough guys have to be the lowest form of life on this planet.

it was the holders fault, the laces were facing the kicker, he should have the laces out.
