He fielded the ball on the baseline falling away. Slow or not that’s a tough arse play.

He might have thrown it over the dugout. Glad he tried to get to the bag instead.

No confidence inn throwing it from deep third to first.

Then you’re playing the wrong 3rd baseman. The runner heading to 2nd wasn’t even in the picture as Doughty got to 3rd base. Very poor awareness.

Wanna know how I know that you never played 3B?
That was the correct play. He was falling toward the line and needed to make a really hard throw. If it goes wide, we lose. If he tucks it, we play another batter.
Ultimately it was the right play.

Plus, he had guy running to 3rd, crossing his path. Rather he do what he did or sit on it than throw wildly and allow run(s) to score

Yeah, and an unappreciated factor is that the moon was rising in the east, and although it wasn’t directly in his eyes, it was reflecting off of Coach Bianco’s watch.
WTF is all this? He made a mistake not realizing who the batter was. For anyone else on the Ole Mss lineup, Doughty made the right play. For fat arse, he should have gathered himself, then gunned him out. It wasn’t an egregious mistake, but it wasn’t a championship decision either.
BTW, I was impressed with fat arse’ hitting.

No he didn't, not best choice but hey shortest bag right?... wanna know how I know you were a bitch 3rd baseman? No Kahunas to make the easy throw, 2nd way I know u know shite about 3rd....it was 2 OUTS dumbass, cade didn't know the situation, he Reacted...guarantee u if it was Thompson, he woulda gunned fatso down at first or even made the shorter throw to 2nd(runner wasn't even close to the bag), if your 3rd baseman at LSU can't make that throw, he don't belong there period....in the end it worked out...

Agreed. He had plenty of time to set his feet and step/throw. He should make that throw accurately to make the out 90% of the time, even under the pressure of it being the potential last out.
He beats that guy to the bag 0/10 times.
The collective Madden awareness level of these players is not very high.

Wut? He has a split second from making that play last night. That was at a worst a 50/50 decision.

He fielded it cleanly and ran straight to the base. Even if he was just a split-second late, there wasn't much more he could do.
Unless the runner trips, he's going to beat him to the bag 10/10 times.
ETA: The decision certainly wasn't a terrible one, I'm just saying it wasn't the right one, given the runner.

Seems like you're just using hindsight to say he could never make that play. Why not use some of that hindsight to see there was a decent chance he commits a throwing error on a long throw that is rushed that could have potentially lost us the game?

you have to make the throw there
If your third baseman cant make the throw you need a new one. It was bang bang choosing what he did, throwing to first was 10/10 an out assuming he doesnt make an error. which is clearly what he thought he would do...

Not really arguing that, but he has had several throwing errors, including one earlier in the game. It is what it is.

That is factoring into my decision. Morgan being our first baseman also factors in.
Like I said, it certainly wasn't the worst decision, but if he throws to first the game is very likely over. There is a small chance he makes a poor throw and the game continues as a tie game (not ideal), and an even smaller chance that he makes a poor throw and we lose the game on that play (worst case).
