I liked the fake punt call. It almost worked too.

Foster stopped running, he could have caught that.

He had a pretty shitty game. Hope he pulls it together.

Moreau did have a bad game run blocking, but that failed fake punt wasn’t on him. ZVR just overthrew him.

I liked the call also. unlike miles late in his tenure we seem to be trying to win and sometimes that takes unusual plays. like the going for it on fourth down. the situation playing auburn required pulling out all stops and taking some chances. also, having our defense to back us up if we fail is also a big plus

I agree with the OP. Good call but there’s a reason ZVR is a punter

It gives special team coaches down the road something to worry about, and if nothing else, that's a plus for LSU.

That was the worst fake punt attempt I’ve seen at any level. I’m not sure what sport von Rosenberg and Moreau thought they were playing, but it was not football.

If he wouldn't have jumped he could have thrown a better pass. Dude was wide open.

Great call.
Crappy execution.

Unlike Gus’s 4th down call.
Crappy call and execution.

When it works it's a genius call.

When it doesn't -- it's a dumb-arse move.

Dumb call considering they had a punt safe defense

Did not like the call, but liked Moreau's effort all game even less.

What a disappointment for the coveted #18. He is just bad at everything.

That WAS an excellent idea. I loved it. We will eventually execute one of those at a crucial time.

They had a punter throw a jump-pass. Bad call.

I have the sad that we did not save the jump-pass fake punt for Florida....

I liked it. Would have loved it had it been successful.

If they had pulled that fake off coach O would reach legend status in the fake dept off that one play.

Yep It was pretty damn bad lol. Just too difficult of a throw for a punter.

But I didnt love the call to begin with

What's the old line...when a fake punt works, great call and when they don't then they're shitty calls.
