Ended up getting comped sky box ticket from Harrahs so went to the game. A few observations.

1. I was very impressed with the talent of the LSU ladies Pre game. Wow

2. Enjoyed talking with the LSU fans before, during and after the game. I saw no issues with anyone in any part of the Stadium and City. We all got along very well.

3. LSU fans would all predict a win… big win.. and confident in that prediction. I tried to warm them that we would be ready and it will be a very close game that could go either way in the finals minutes/seconds.

4. The game on week zero helped us focus on special teams leading up to this game. We had a few issues to clean up.

5. This was the best game of the college football weekend and the entire Nation is talking about it.

6. The crowd was 55/45 LSU. FSU fans were louder though and the team winning helped with that as well.

7. LSU almost pulled the rabbit out of the hat with that last second TD. Was happy to see LSU lined up for the extra point. Had a weird feeling he was going to miss it. What. An. Ending.

8. Can’t wait to run it back next year in Orlando.

Y’all are a 7-5 team. Unfortunately we’re a 5-7 team.

How about y’all will lose a shite load of games if you’re using a team that lost all but 39 scholarship (zero DBs or LBs and new Oline with starters out in the secondary and obviously losing the best playmaker on defense in q1) players and didn’t have a recruiting cycle to get enough players in or really implement the full playbook as a measuring stick.
This is what we call a COMPLETE gutting and rebuild. Norvell has been there 3 seasons. Let that shite sink in….

Maybe the only game on sunday they were talking about. Their were 2 or 3 better games from Saturday. Poor lsu execution does not make for a great game.

Running a toss play from the 2 up 7 with 1:30 left is one of the dumbest coaching decisions I've ever seen.

The bad part is y’all weren’t ready for shite. Your coach made dumb decisions that almost cost Yall the game. Fortunately for yall we played as bad as we possibly could because this was our first game of the year it cost us. If we played Southern first then FSU the second game this would have been a different outcome. We didn’t deserve to win with the way we played at the end of the day

Or getting the ball after halftime but not kicking the easy field goal and going for it on 4th an goal before the half. Super smart coaching

FSU was the better team - much better, in my opinion. However, this isn't a jab as it hurts LSU more, FSU isn't that good. I think they're a 7 win team. We're that bad.

how about not telling your quarterback to just take a sack instead of throwing the ball ensuring that we would have to use a timeout, therefore giving us all 3 timeouts for a 2 minute drive

Agreed. However it was a pretty sweet flee flicker for the 50 yard TD pass everyone forgets.

Norvell said he made a bad call and won’t call that one again.

Kelly should have went for 2.

I downvoted you for being a nole. But I generally your thoughts were right.
We’ll get it back next year in Orlando. I think that game will be a bigger deal than this one was. And we’re going to win.

Yup and we lost to this dumbass who won't be coaching there next year. LSU sucks but FSU isn't a good team either. They don't have an Oline, their WRs are timid, and their DBs were not good either we missed a ton of wide open WRs Daniels wasn't seeing. They better hope Travis can survive behind that line.

Not a bad take. Hard to disagree with anything especially number 1

They also had a game already. You can find weaknesses on your team and scheme around them. We didn’t. We found our issues in real time. And almost came back. We learned that we’re and up tempo team. Quick passes didn’t come til the 2nd half.

1 .You (FSU) are better than we thought.
2. LSU is worse than we thought.
3. FSU ran harder and tackled better.
4. LSU out coached by a mile.
