Legitimately I think I don’t really believe what I just saw.

He just went for it down 11 on his own 25.

I wasn’t optimistic that we got a stop there but in what world? He literally threw the game away.

I’m trying to remember Les Miles do something dumber than that intentionally.

I think he knew if we couldn’t convert that, we weren’t winning.

Play calling, holding onto the ball....Brutal...Be lucky to go 8-4...A lot of money spent on this....

That’s a silly thought.

You’re having a shitty series. Your chances are already low even if you punt.

But going for it is literally giving up.

You punt the ball. You don’t take your 5% chance to win the game and willingly kick it to 1%

Why?

LSU has been terrible in the red zone all season
Leavitt has been a turnover machine
The defense has been anything but clutch (especially in 3rd Down)
Lane has been schizophrenic in his 4th Down calls

Could LSU have won this game? Sure. But they would have had to perform the opposite of what they had been all season.

This is the old Kiffin who made stupid 4th down decisions. I wanted the version of him that was aggressive, but not a wacko on 4th downs. Instead, we got a guy who punted against Kentucky in one of the most obvious "go for it" situations ever, and old, crazy go for it every time Kiffin this year.


I don't want any part of that version of Kiffin.
