Of course, I hope you are right.

I was worried about Milroe and Diego anyway, this game just sealed that.

Who on our roster can simulate a real good read option offense? AJ Swann, Rickie Collins? It ain’t Nuss.

Quit trying to pump sunshine. This team has to many holes to make the playoffs. This is not being negative this is stating facts. We are a young team at some key positions and shouldn’t expect anything other than a winning season and a bowl game.

I didn’t think we were a playoff team to begin with. During the first half last night I changed my mind. I was impressed by all the improvements we had made. In the second half I came back down to Earth. You should too.

But we can still win out. Alabama is mediocre and undisciplined. Florida will be in shambles, Vandy is another one-trick pony and OU will be ready for it all to be over.
we CAN win out but after what I saw last night ima say it AINT likely. The only team left on the schedule that should be relatively easy is OK, but far from certain.

I think we beat OK without too much struggle, (maybe) but I guarantee we will struggle mightily with the Gators, and very possibly lose. Vandy may be a toss up and Bama a probable loss.

Not a fricking chance in hell. This team would get steamrolled by any of the current top 5 teams in a CFP game.

To the poster: I love the Tigers but this is not a College play off team…. Not just poor qb play but cant run the ball..,,defense better for sure…and defense was put in some bad short field situation..,, i am sure there will be some good stuff before the season ends but last night’s performance was not of playoff caliber.

Even if we make the playoff we won’t go far.

Yes, they absolutely can, or they can get embarrassed by all three of these SEC opponents just like they did last night….their choice.

Don't ignore that 20 minutes like it's not perfectly capable of repeating itself.

It feels good to beat teams we hate, and it feels like this to lose to them. Far as I'm concerned it's the frickin we get for the frickin we got.

But those 20 minutes have shown themselves in other games this yr and we're lucky to have the wins over SC and OM.

LOL ok. Will be lucky to end 9-3. Nussmeir is a mirage. He makes bad decisions, throws into coverage, throws off balance and sidearmed because his footwork is garbage, he’s not an accurate downfield passer, doesn’t understand how to use his legs.
Bama and Vandy can beat lsu.

Boys, just think of all the things that had to go wrong to give them the lead in the second half:

1) Hilton mistiming his catch
2) Normally super reliable Ramos missing 2 FGs and never getting to attempt a 3rd
3) due to the aforementioned, a failed 2-pt conversion.
These three added up to 13 lost points when we were ahead 17-14. Had we executed, we are up 30-14 at that point.
4) a failed 2-pt conversion, bringing the total lost points to 14. We lost by 15, you know.
5) 6) & 7) three interceptions by Nuss, and the botched FG give them a short field on 4 second-half possessions
8) one long pass completion gives them a short field on yet another second half possession.

YES, A&M took advantage and YES, we couldn’t run the ball and YES, we looked ridiculous vs Reed. But we did SO MUCH wrong - out of character for this team, honestly.

We will fix those and rebound
