You don't just ignore the blatant errors you made just b/c the other team didn't capitalize on them.
Capitalize on what? Getting the ball down three with 5 seconds left?
999 times out of 1000 you are winning in this scenario.

While watching the game, I thought it was pretty clear he was trying to run it in for a touchdown and then had to change the plan. Not sure why y'all are still agonizing over this.

Because LSU is winning and Jayden Daniels is playing well.
There is plenty to complain about with the defense to worry about this.

I think it’s worse than you realize.
Kelly doesn’t realize it because he was trying to score in first and 2nd down.
He didn’t realize that he could have run the clock down to zero on first down. And he didn’t realize it on 2nd down either.
we hired a 60 year old guy that has won a shite load of games but never anything of substance for a 10 year $10mil contract, you think he gives a shite?

Coaches are bad at clock management. I can’t think of a single one that doesn’t make mistakes with it. It’s because coaches don’t watch games like we do they watch film.

And I stress this again. Kelly is supposed to be that guy...Mr. Detail-oriented. tAlignment. "The adult in the room". etc. The longer he stays here, the longer it becomes clear he's not that guy.
This is incredibly dumb.
Kelly took over a gutted LSU program and immediately rebuilt it to the point where it won the SEC West, beating Bama in the process. His lone loss this year is to the current #4 team. He’s potentially got the best team in the West again.
All teams have issues and even good coaches make mistakes.

He realizes it. I think he was dodging the question. Les Miles would have had to explain away why he let the game go in to overtime.

How much time was left on the clock?
I really dont get the issue here, are we upset that he called a TO to talk to his players to make sure everyone was on the same page?

I don’t dislike Kelly, I think he is a great coach. I think it was a blunder and the issue is either he hasn’t realized it, or he is too prideful to admit it.
I would sure hope someone in the damn building isn’t too scared of him to let him know what he should have done.

He should have kneeled on 3rd (where Ramos is most comfortable), let the clock go down to 2 seconds, and call the TO.

He's been doing this a long time. He knew there was time. I think what was actually going on, which he can't say, was he was hesitant about letting the game be decided by the special teams when he was in position to score a TD. This place would have been apoplectic if LSU had the ball at the 7 yard line with over a minute to go and Kelly decided to play for FG...that was blocked...
Bingo. Me and my buddy said this at the game when it happened. And tbh I don't blame him with how his first game turned out getting the PAT blocked. I think that hesitation 100% was not wanting to leave enough time but also not leave it to the special teams.

This is when they started the play clock after the 2nd down tackle. This is the TO I think everyone has a problem with. If we just line up, let the clock run down, snap it and get to the middle of the field, you can let the clock run down to 3 seconds and call your timeout on 4th down.
I'd love to know his thinking when he called that TO.

Ramos wasn't going to throw anyone under the bus. That was basically a no comment. What do you think he's going to say... "Yeah man our coaches are idiots for setting me up there."
I can assure you a right footed kicker doesn't want to be kicking from the left college hash from inside the 5 yard line. Not centering the ball was almost worse than the timeout mismanagement.
This is how you know what I'm suggesting is right.
He didn't center the ball because he wasn't trying to kick a FG on 1st and 2nd down. And, he couldn't center it on 3rd down with no timeouts and only 10ish seconds on the clock.

Kind of. He wanted a TD...and then abandoned the plan probably because he decided he didn't want to take any real risk on 3rd down.
If Kelly were trying to defend his decision, he'd admit all of that. He'd say,
"I didn't want to leave it up to a kick. So, we were going to be very conservative and try and score in the least risky way possible. However, once we got to 3rd down, I decided the risk of the kick was lower than the risk of trying to score by throwing it on 3rd down (plus the risk of Arkansas doing anything with 5 seconds)."
I totally disagree with that logic. But, it least it would be logical.
