A 42 yarder in the last second of the game with the SEC West championship on the line is "super close FG range"?


We’re talking about the TD pass to Demetrius Byrd, right? I don’t feel like looking it up but there is no way that fricker was from 42 yards out. I guess you’re accounting for the end zone and ball placement but I still thought it was closer than that.

They were around the 25, so yeah, a FG would have been about 42 yards. They weren't in the red zone for sure.

Also, Byrd caught that ball with like 3-4 seconds left and the clock kept rolling even when he got up to do the "you can't see me". It wasn't as close as it was made out to be. It was a quick strike and if they didn't get it they'd kick the FG. It wasn't really a bad play at all tbh. The FG wasn't a guarantee. It was just that everyone expected Tubby to take a TO and they didn't but LSU was actually prepared believe it or not.
