LSU leading Bama 17-14, 2 minutes left. Beckham makes a scintillating sideline catch to the Bama 28 for a first down.
LSU needs ONE first down to kneel down three times and change the whole college football season(or a TD of course).

1st down: 4 yard run, 2nd and 6.
Hindsight is 20/20, but you're not gonna run twice on Bama with 6 yards to go to get a first down.
Mettenberger had had success throwing to the backs either on a wheel route or along the line of scrimmage. Or he could have done a misdirection pass in the flat to the TE.

I will say though, that if Alleman makes the FG and gives LSU a 20-14 lead, Alabama would not have had the momentum and the ball at their own 30. We may have been able to cover the kickoff inside their 20.....
