The game last night was not as close as the score indicated

The bullshite roughing the passer call extended an Arkansas drive and kept them in the game when it should've been 4th and long. I'm not usually one to cry about refs but that call completely changed the momentum of the game.

Arkansas dominated the first half. If they were better coached and more disciplined, they probably would have been up 2 TDs at halftime. Certainly 10 points without the breakdown on the Thomas TD.

Go look at time of possession.

Very lopsided in favor of Arkansas. LSU has to do better on defense.

It’s a football game. Same could be said about the TD Thomas did a great job of catching which was horribly underthrown and turned it into a TD.

Just be happy they got the W and hope they don’t continue to start off slow cause it will bite them in the arse.

The played really well in the first quarter, wouldn’t say they dominated.

That can be misleading. LSU had 2 3 play scoring drives that barely took a minute off the clock. That can skew TOP

Yes it damn sure was. I guess you didn’t watch them carve up our secondary at will. You probably didn’t even notice that first downs were almost even 26-25. You also didn’t notice that they had the ball for 9 more minutes than we did.

LSU won, but it was a hard fought, close game by all accounts.

And this doesn’t tell the story either. LSU was scoring at will 2nd quarter on.

Arkansas had long sustained drives as they knew they could not stop us. LSU shot themselves in the foot a lot defensively last night. It SHOULDNT have been close.

Over 60% on third down and they did not punt a single time after the first drive of the game.

Defense has to get off the field.

I agree. The ridiculous amount of stupid penalties committed by Arky cost them the game.

LSU probably loses that game last year.

Very pleased to see Daniels continue to take downfield shots, two games in a row, just wish he'd put a little more air under them.
