To me, the smart play here was to run the ball and try put the game away. With 1 minute to go being up 14 seems to me as a safe bet at putting the game away. If you are scared that your defense can give up 14 points in 1 minute against Arkansas, then you do not need to be coaching @ LSU!!!!!!!!!!

The game was already put away after the 1st down. Arkansas had zero timeouts left.

The only chance they had to get back into the game, no matter how infinitesimal, was if we scored or fumbled. Brossette made the smart play.

While I 100% agree that people should not be tweeting at #4 for those PLAYS... I still think that those may have been the most Baby Back Bitch of PLAYS I've seen in a while.

That Arkansas team was talking shite to us all game, and we should have shoved one more TD firmly up their arse to seal the deal instead of laying down twice. Ed O doesn't seem to be the type of coach to lay down instead of pound one more TD in the endzone, and based on his next two play calls, I can only assume he didn't tell #4 to do that.


If yall have forgotten, then go back and watch the multiple times that Jeremy Hill iced a game on a TD when teams were within one score of us. Scoring a TD, to end a game, on a team that just came back from 21 points to cut it to 7 is demoralizing and how good teams answer and close out a game. Ending the game on a 5 minute touchdown drive to close out a game would have been a fantastic way to move on in to the next week. Instead, everyone is talking about this fall down bull shite, and how we only beat a 2-7 team by 7 points.

I believe laying down on the one yard line to ice a game has no place in the world of college football. Todd Gurley can do it all he wants because it does not matter how you win a game in the NFL, so long as you win it. That number goes into the win column and once playoffs roll around it doesn't fricking matter how you won. Completely different story in CFB though. Style points are a thing, and that's evidenced by how we dropped three spots in the polls today. I do not think it will matter for us moving forward as there is such a small chance that we make a playoff game, but this type of shite would matter if we were competing with multiple teams for that last spot.

Take the players side all yall want, but that was a chicken shite play. I hope our next RB and really all of our players moving forward have more of a killer instinct than #4.
