You can talk all the X&O's you want, are name all sorts of other problems/issues.......But I saw/felt it IMMEDIATELY. LSU Players were confused, embarrassed on field......and were utterly let down by Kelly.

IT WAS AN INFINITELY HUGE PSYCHOLOGICAL MOMENTUM KILLER!! LSU WAS IN CONTROL OF THE GAME.....AND IN ENEMY TERRITORY .....KELLY MADE A COWARDLY MISTAKE BY "GIVING UP"! HE FLIPPED THE MOMENTUM, WASTED AN OPPORTUNITY & SENT A DISASTROUS, SIGNAL OF FEAR/DOUBT TO HIS OWN PLAYERS/TEAM & A&M. I IMMEDIATELY SAID (POSTED) HOW MONUMENTAL THAT DECISION WAS AT THE TIME (COULD NOT BELIEVE IT) & HOW I FEARED THE VERY DIRE EFFECTS/CONSEQUENCES IT MIGHT HAVE IN/ON THAT GAME, SUBSEQUENT GAMES, ETC. IT WAS A SIGN/SIGNAL.....AND SINCE THAT PRECISE MOMENT.....IT HAS BEEN CATASTROPHIC!!!

I supported, liked Kelly UNTIL THE END OF 1ST HALF @ A&M - When He Did Not Call Time Out & Gave Up! I Still can not believe watching the clock go TIC TIC TIC TIC TIC TIC on Live, Prime Time Television. It was one of the most embarrassing moments in my 55 years as a Tiger Fan!

Maybe the knew Nuss was a turnover machine waiting to happen and didnt want to risk it. A&M wasn’t doing much on offense and they had a 10 point lead. They were right Nuss turned it over 6 times in the next quarters. Hope this helps dumbass.

nuss has been a ticking time bomb for ints this hole season. Ole miss dropped several, both USC’s dropped several. It was a matter of time

He did the same thing vs Bama at the end of the first half. I thought we could have thrown a down and out and tried a field goal.

It was the same the week before at Arkansas. Worse field position but we throw basically out of our own end zone. Then get a defensive penalty I believe to advance further and just shut it down. All i could think of was post-game USC and BK bitching and griping about our players thinking they already won and we didn't know how to finish. Way to lead by example.

Yes, BK botched the management of the end of that half. But you’re telling me if we try to move the ball and still fail to score, morale is high and we win anyway? And we don’t shite the bed against Bama? bullshite.

It sucked, but our players didn’t just decide to quit trying to win because BK went ultra conservative.

C'mon man. Nuss had a good 1st half vs Aggie. Are you suggesting BK should've known he was ripe for 3 ints and should've just gone ahead and benched him?

This is a lie. We were well short of midfield. It’s always indicative of how weak a point something is when you have to embellish it to give it strength. Stop lying.

We took over after the 4th down stop on our own 42 w/ :57s left and two TOs.

I thought we were PAST mid-field, I could be wrong, but the main/important thing is that - WE HAD MOMENTUM!

And Kelly Killed it!

I knew that the X & O guys would come out. But I'm talking Psychology, Attitude & controlling the Pace & Momentum of the game. Managing the Mind, Emotions & Attitude to allow each player & team to continue the Attack, maintain the Upper Hand.....sometimes ever so slightly. Kelly "tucked & ran" for the locker room. Regardless of points, which I firmly believe we could of AT LEAST got a Field Goal (touchdown would have finished them off!); you continue dictating the Pace, keeping them on their heels. LSU was in Control & Command. And BK gave it away, and sent a clear Message (conscience & Unconscious) to every one of his Players.

Remember what 40 Seconds allowed LSU to do @ the end of the Ole Miss Game!?! We had more than that @ end of 1st Half in A&M Game!

All I knew, know, saw & have seen since that precise/exact moment.....has been failure!

In ALL Upper Level, Advanced Sports, Competition & with those ATHLETES......IT IS 90% MENTAL!! They all know exactly How & What to do - they are immensely accomplished, stand-out athletes. But it is the Mind, Attitude, Emotion.....that allows them to execute, perform. It often comes down to an INCH or MILLIMETER that makes the Difference!

In College Football, especially in the SEC with100k Stadiums fill with Fanatics (Fans)........ Recognizing the Play by Play Nuances (Eb & Flow) of MOMENTUM .......and Controlling/Managing/Keeping/Reversing IS CRITICAL!!

I said Midfield in my Subject, and was basically correct. What coach, team, player would not be PUMP/PSYCHED with the Lead, Momentum, Hot QB, 57 Seconds & 2 Time Outs.......while on the Road & Playing for the #1 Spot in the SEC!?!

An Absolute IDEAL Situation to "Go For It", rather than SQUANDER it!
