POBIII

Stortz and Labas didn't pitch this year, so no reason to order rest!

If you predicted 9-3, like I did, who will the Tigers losses be the rest of the season?

Although, I like our chances against Sabalama, I recognize our limited offense will again bite us in the rear. ArKansas will then be the difference between 10-2 or 9-3..

I hope I am wrong. What do you think?

I thought it was Lafell, but stand corrected as I was so pissed. However, you are wrong about when the clock is supposed to stop. From a practical standpoint, the clock operator is usually late, but technically it is supposed to stop when the runner, in this case receiver, is down. In college, he cannot get up and run once he is down. Even it was 2 seconds, we would have had time to spike the ball leaving enough time with the clock stopped for the FG unit to do their job.

What everyone is missing is that despite the fact that timout should have been called after the horrific call to Ridley on the swing pass in the flat for a 7 yard loss, Lafell caught the hail mary and hit the ground with 3 seconds left. First down stops the clock so we would have had time to spike the ball and have two maybe 1 second left with the clock stopped. Plenty of time for FG team to run on, get set snap and kick the winning FG, assuming a good snap, hold and kick. Mississippi has had to set their watches back one second when entering Louisiana. Now they no longer have to do that because we are even.

AKaKa, I only mentioned UF LT to remind everyone how blind you are and why you give officals a bad name.

Akaka, you have once again proven yourself to be incapable of officiating a game. Your lack of ability to see something with your eyes and correlate it with your rule book. We recently argued about UF left tackle lining up in the backfield. I have noticed in UF subsequent games that he is no longer lining up as far back as he did against LSU. By your inability to acknowledge Peterson having control of he ball with his left foot already clearly in bounds, which is all that is required, confirms your blindness. Most on this board acknowledge how difficult it was to make the call on the field as it happened so fast and the officials looking down the sideline may have had their vision obstructed by other players in their line of sight. However the replay clearly shows both feet touched in bounds with possession.

None of this matters. JUST WIN BABY!!!! The rankings will take care of themselves and it only matters how you finish.

Was this the game that LSU came up with 2 fumbles on the Nebraska last drive, but refs claimed they were down. Maybe that was another matchup with Nebraska in the 70's. Oh well, old age is catching up with me.

In reviewing the replay not only did the linesman miss the jersey grab, but Alem was flagrantly mugged on the play as well, which was worse. I find it strange how little holding is being called against LSU opponents this season. Am I the only person suspicious of the lack of holding calls?

I noticed the UF center moving the ball as well, but our two refs on this thread will no doubt be able to discern that it was legal for the Gators to pick up the ball and move it forward before the snap. BTW, just watching Michigan and Iowa replay on ESPNU and Michigan OT was flagged for not being on the LOS and he was nowhere close to being as far back as the UF LT was for most of our game. I found that very interesting. Since 62zip is so adamant that his supervisor won't be very happy about his L making that judgement call.
