re: So, If Ridley does not get Out of Bounds....

Whether or not he got out of bounds does not excuse the call. A screen pass that more often than not will result in Ridley going down in bounds is not a smart, high percentage call.
So basically, they did not change anything after OM, it just worked out this week.
BTW, in the post game field interview, reporter asked twice if they learned anything from the OM game and he said something like, it's the exact same men. They're the same.
Anybody else catch that?
The opportunity was there to say:
We evaluate our performance in every game to find our weaknesses. We try to learn from every mistake to prevent making the same mistakes again. We recognized our shortcomings against OM and worked on those items in practice. Those improvements manifested themselves today.
Does anyone have a clip of the field interview?

would the meltdown be huge right now?
In that instance it would have made no difference in the outcome whatsoever.
We'd have called a T/O. Then on the last play with 8-9 seconds left, we would have spiked the ball. Nice to see Ridley working hard to get out of bounds on that play though.

I was in a wine fog by that time, but I remember the reporter and I were equally confused.

Thought we used the last time out after the sack?
No?

In Ole Miss it was a screen, these were not screens

not even close...it wasn't the same play. That was a screen, this was a swing pass. Ridley should've gone out of bounds earlier instead of trying to stretch for a couple of extra yards. That is really the only knock on the play.

ForeLSU,
We were out of time outs before that play, right?

Chizik not a good hire either.
If we have gotten to the point that we're using Gene Chizik as a barometer for our coaching staff then we have fallen much further than I first thought.

yes, the timeout was after the sack.

It was the exact same play, except this time we started in the shotgun. A screen out of the I-formation is basically the same thing as a swing pass out of the shotgun when you get down to defensive assignments. In both instances the player catches the ball about 5 or 6 yards behind the line of scrimage and in both cases the running back will have to beat at least one player on the defense to get any yards because the defense will have a man assigned to anyone coming out of the backfield. But yes, technically its a different play, but the execution of the two plays is virtually the same.

Truer words have never been spoken.

ummm absolutely not even close to the same play in any way

I think the point is that it was not a sideline play. Ridley made perhaps the play of the game to get out of bounds. Had he been in bounds, would have had a very very long field goald try at best. Also, replay indicated that he was probably not out of bounds.
Point of the thread was if we don't get that call, this game likely goes ARKY's way and the meltdown would be nuclear.

So we basically escaped punishment from having to waste the TO on a sack that should not have occurred.

Ridley was definitely NOT out of bounds. His knee was clearly down inbounds.
