Told the people in front of me " I was at Clemson and bama last year, and i have a feeling the same thing is about to happen. We are going to lose on this last drive."

Another problem is that Mett is not good at game winning drives

Wasn't a gut feeling. Knew it as sure as the sun would come up on Sunday.

Unfortunately he didn't get a chance this time.

I hoped the LSU offense would use more time to score so they would not get it back or with too little time left. I feared we could not stop them from scoring with their 165 pound running back and JJF imitating QB.

No! This game was in the loss column when the fourth quarter started. There is nothing we could have done in the fourth that would have rid me of the sickening feeling that we are definitely not a top 10 team. With that knowledge, it mattered only slightly whether we won or lost.

So true. He needs to put on his hardhat, keep his head down and don't celebrate anything until he is the superstar DT he should be. He should be too angry to be celebrating what he should be doing on a consistent basis.

I thought OM would score, so much so that I was hoping we'd try an onside kick.
To me, if we recover, great...if we don't, at least they won't be able to run the clock out, leaving us a possession.
I know, it's a shame I have so little confidence in the defense to root for the onside kick.

how many of you knew in your gut that they were going to score?
Come on are you seriously asking us who knew the CLM led Tiger team would snatch defeat from the jaws of victory?
Unfortunately I have to admit being in that group. Wish I could say otherwise just don't have a lot of confidence in our coaching staff right at this moment in time.

we give up late scoring drives when we are up by less than 14 points. Bama, South Carolina, Ole miss, Texas A&M, Clemson, Georgia.
Chavis is awesome when he's ahead by a lot. If his team is ahead by alittle he will not coach aggressively and we will keep losing.

Should have had him tackled twice

yeah, that 20 seconds with no timeouts would have guaranteed we drive down the field and score and go on to win the game.
No one's saying it would've guaranteed us a win, it just would've given us a chance. Without calling the timeout, we had no chance. Aren't coaches (especially highly paid ones) supposed to pay attention to this kind of stuff and give their teams every possible chance to win games?
If you can't even acknowledge that Miles screwed up, you're simply being an irrational Miles apologist.

The point is Miles gets mauled on here too much, albeit some is justified
The clock issue is a non story if we don't make all of the mistakes that kept Ole Miss in that game and allowed them to win.
Not to mention its hard watching growing pains on an LSU defense

I posted about it on the Scoreboard.
I said 35% chance we stop them. There was not a single post in the thread that was above 50%.

Actually this would've been an ingenious move considering how awful the defense was playing. It would've taken some balls to make the call (like Sean Payton onside kick call during the Super Bowl), but to me it would've at least given them a chance to get the ball back with a lot of time on the clock.

How about not even worrying about that and actually run the ball more once the 4th & 10 was converted. Or maybe run the ball just one f*cking play instead of 3 straight pass plays prior to the 4th & 10. There are a whole lot of scenario's involved but, we have to face the facts the not calling a time-out or the defense having more holes in it than swiss cheese didn't cost us the game. They helped contribute to us not winning the game. But what truly cost us the game were the 3 int's that Mett threw. Those took points off the board plain and simple and if you add 6pts "minimum" to the score there is the difference in the ballgame.
People want to say "can't blame it on Mett if it wasn't for him we would not have been in the game late and tied it up" very true, but if it wasn't for the 3 int's the game wouldn't have been tied up that late in the game.
There were a whole host of reasons why we lost the game, but the 3 int's cost us the game.

Actually, the pivotal part of the 4th quarter came when LSU couldn't score the TD after the muffed punt. Scoring a TD could have changed the course of the game--though we have no idea of the events that were possible. I was hoping lightning would strike 2x or that the kick failed when OM tried the final field goal.
After all that, I had difficulties getting to sleep early Sunday morning. Now I just pull for success for the remainder of this season. I believe some great things can still happen...If and when the team gets its unity back.
