re: LSU sitting on the one-yard line as a 13-point favorite is the gambling crime of the centu

I thought it was a very heady decision. I’ve seen LSU teams with a 2 TD lead turn right back around and give up a TD on a kickoff returned for a TD and then have to sweat out an onside kick!
Get the 100% sure win and GTFO there. A garbage time TD means nothing and was a classy move to boot (no pun). A road SEC win, however cosmetically unappealing, is never a bad thing. Too much crazy shite happening in college football to give the ball back to an opponent who with 2 plays can still alter the outcome.
