Sprained ankles, twisted knees, wrenched shoulders were/are all lumped in with “cramps”. On replay, at least half of those injuries were obvious, and were not cramps.

Man I don’t think a lot were take a breather injuries. You don’t take someone like delpit to the locker room just to get a breather.

I think Divinity was a take a break but the rest were legit.

Yahoo! Sports article suggests that LSU faked at least one injury against Texas

K’Lavon Chaisson didn’t just run his mouth before the game. He reportedly winked at the staff while faking an injury, too.

in the second half. That included Chaisson, winking at the Texas staff when he went down with an apparent lower-body ailment late in the second half before walking to the opposite sideline. 


I have a hard time believing this.

the boos in the stadium coming down on our guys after the sack was ridiculous, I turned around to ask the guy screaming in my ear we are cheaters how it benefits us to fake an injury after a huge sack....too which he had to answer too and continued to show his class


I hope LSU fans don't turn to complaining about "fake" injuries and booing players now that we are more of a tempo team.

You never know how bad an injury is in real time. Booing a player down with an injury is always a bitch move.

Anyone who thinks it was fake is a fool-read UT fan. Thanks

UT's offense was on the field a long time. Why did none of them cramp?

How much actual time was spent out there on the field, in particular in the first half.

Also note, those linemen were in there for two goalline stands, which are more draining on the legs when you're squatting an offensive lineman to keep them from getting any pressure, as opposed to open field, where there is latitude to try and move around them.

I take quite a bit more energy to play defense than offense, the offense knows where the play is going and once their assignment is over they relax however a defensive player goes until the whistle is blown.
