It was the dumbest shite I’ve seen in a long time. Brosette and the team took the risk 3 times with NO payoff. Why? Why no victory formation? I felt like I was taking crazy pills.


I had no issue with Brosette scoring on the initial run. LSU was trying to gain a first down, presumably to ice the game. The fact that Arky refused to tackle him was not LSU's fault, so he should have just taken it in.

But...once he slid and the game was over with a kneel or 2, continuing to try and slam it in was beyond ridiculous. Not only was it a chicken-shite move to try and score for the sole purpose of tacking on some more points to make the win look better, but NOT scoring after trying twice just pointed out how shitty the offense was all night.

I realize no one will buy this, but as much as I dislike the guy and think this whole experiment will ultimately fail with no hardware to show for it, I have actually been hoping Orgeron changes my mind about him this season. I'm open to it...but he needs to actually earn that change. Instead, that FG attempt against BAMA so as not to get blanked while showing his team and fans we'd stopped trying to win, and this bush league move of trying to run up the score in the closing seconds of a game so the score would appear better make it VERY VERY hard for that to ever happen.
