Bama was only playing for a field goal with almost 2 minutes left. LSU was had to score a td with over half the amount of time. Different play calling for the 2 different situations.

LOL....NO


LSU missed the FG with 1:34 left in the game. That means Bama only had 1:34 seconds in the game to score something.

Yeldon scored with 0:51 left in the game. That means that LSU had 0:51 left to score something.

1:34 - 0:51 = 0:43

This means that Bama's 73 yard drive only took 43 seconds...which is LESS than the amount of time LSU had on the clock when they got the ball back.

LSU and Mettenberger showed how NOT to run a 2 minute offense when they got the ball. They were literally clueless on what to do in every aspect. Bama wasn't.
