Why is no one saying that LSU’s defense played soft for 7 overtime periods? I get everyone wants to hate Ensminger and Dave Aranda is great but LSU scores every overtime possession and touchdowns on 5 of 7 possessions. Your best unit has to come up with one stop in OT or the last drive where there was a 4th and 18. The defense had their opportunities. They never sent pressure the entire OT. The biggest plays were when Mond scrambled for a few seconds before finding a receiver that broke his route. They asked too much from the db’s.

Fans have rightly criticized Aranda. However, O had a golden opportunity to NOT have to put the game in the defense's hands again. A TD in the 4th OT ends the game and O chose to play no to lose the FG opportunity vs. sticking it in the endzone and getting win #10.
