If LSU converts the short 3rd down on the first drive of the 3rd quarter
Posted by KC Tiger on 9/8/19 at 10:05 am690
does it completely change the game? We were up 20-7 at that point and driving. My guess is a score on that drive takes the air out of the stadium and (maybe) the Texas team.

That dropped pass was the turning point that kept this from being a blowout. Had we gone on a sustained scoring drive, Texas' defense would have been worn out in the second half instead of ours.

I was hoping for a score and a stop and another score to be able to relax the rest of the game. Defense still shouldn’t have allowed a 19 play drive they were rested and had momentum from the series before half.

It was one of the few bad play calls of the night and the drop by CEH sure sisnt help. I understand we were throwing it all over but 3rd and 1 just go pick up that 1st down running it.

Why do people keep saying it was a bad play call? He makes the easy catch and it’s an easy first down.

The air was taken out of the stadium on plenty of occasions last night. The Texas fans did a good job staying in the game
I didn’t see a single empty seat until a minute left

Because why throw behind the line when they could not stop Chase or JJ on short passes and we were running on them well too with the RPOs and only needed a yard. CEH did average 5.5 ypc for the night.

Rarely is there ever a game that you cannot nit pick a handful of plays. Mine is Kary Vincent’s complete lack of an attempt to make a tackle on 4th down late in the game. He did make some plays at other points of the game, but hat play was a lack of effort.
However, that was one of the biggest wins LSU has had as long as I can remember.

This. Tackling on that drive was atrocious. Can't blame the offense there.

To me it was just sort of a ‘shite happens’ play. I don’t think running would have been a bad call, either, but I’m not going to say that drive ended because of a bad play call.

yeah, had he caught it in stride it would have been a first down. q1

If Texas doesn't drop an easy TD, if Fulton doesn't gamble on a pass and give up a 55 yard TD, if the D doesn't allow 5 3rd and 10+ conversions, if the D has a single scoreless stop in the 2nd half, if the D stops the 4th and 2 instead of missing a tackle on a short pass that turns into a 44yd TD, if we didn't miss multiple tackles . . .

Either run the ball or throw to one of your 3 WRS that had been money all night. They could not stop those passes, that's what made that playcall so frustrating

Man I talked about that terrible play call all night. We needed like a yard and a half and we threw a swing pass. We threw a pass to thee RB on 3rd down the next drive. Almost every pass to a RB was unsuccessful yet we were unstoppable going down field. We got way too cute. Should have been 27-7.

Yeah, I guess so. I just thought we threw it a little too much to CEH considering the results from throwing to Chase and JJ (and Marshall for that matter). He made up for it though on the 3rd and 17 call. Earlier in the game we ran a draw on 3rd and 18.

I like how we survived early even with Texas trying trick play and going for it on 4th a couple of times. If we had IV's at halftime we win by 21.
