He knew the risk going in that he could lose his money.

Sorry not sorry.

That is not a good look for him or LSU.



Yeah it is. He’s right. He owes gamblers nothing.

Don’t like it? Don’t gamble.

It’s not about the bets. It’s about the possibility of point shaving.



Except he just 100% cleared that issue up. He did what was most likely (statistically) to give us the win.

Then you know nothing about football. As it pertains to “% chance to win the game” he 100% did the correct thing.

I don't give a frick. That's why I don't bet on sports at all, so I don't have to give a frick whether we win by 1 point or win by 50 points. A win is a win.

Some people here have to be very young to have not seen 2 quick scores involving an onsides kick before.

Arkansas had no timeouts. The only way they touch the ball again is if he scores. End the game and get out of there.

i mean maybe that makes sense if we would have taken a knee instead of running it again



Both of these things can be true. It was a smart play by Brossette to stop short of the goal line; however, I don't understand why the coaches didn't just take a knee. Same result either way, it's just a head scratcher.

He kept them from getting the ball back with a possibility of scoring twice. Not likely but possible

And why should we give a flying frick about anybody stupid enough to bet on football games?

Dear god no one cares about peoples pathetic bets.

It was just a case of player and coach not being on the same page.

Brosette: "go down, we kneel it and win"
O: "try to score because the committee looks at margin of victory"
