The most important point is in the last sentence of the article:
quote:

The Tigers’ game-winning drive, 95 yards and nearly six minutes long, included 12 consecutive rushes before a play-action touchdown pass put LSU ahead for good. Three of those runs went for 16 or more yards, and all three were to the outside ? set up by those earlier interior pitch plays.

That's a bit disingenuous. LSU hadn't run many of those interior pitch plays. I counted two in the first half.

Occam's Razor applies here... the outside pitch worked better than the interior pitch because it's a better play.
