The poor TD:FG ratio is partly because LSU's offense is so good that the redzone is 4 down territory for opponents.
Off the top of my head I can think of at least 3 TDs that came after fourth down conversions in the redzone that might have otherwise been FGs. And 3+ out of 17 is a large enough % to skew things.

That's a good point. Florida went for it on fourth down and scored a touchdown. I would point out, however, that they did that on the opening drive of the game. So your reasoning doesn't quite follow. They just knew that they had to have every point to beat LSU out of the gate.
