He called a shite game, but what a beautiful last minute drive and then just fantastic calls in OT. It was awesome.

The play we opened OT with, the pass to Greene, was just magnificent.

The perfect play call at the perfect time.

Great job in OT. Wasn't his best game but Sims missed some throws and drops didn't help.

This. Sims and the receivers make the plays we normally make and it would have been a lot easier.

Thank frick for being done with road games. Most unfun game I've ever watched.

honestly the stuff he was calling was there, the team wasnt executing it. Cooper never drops those. I think i would have gone to pounding it with yeldon to give our D some time to rest in between series. They played like absolute maniacs today, despite having to defend for twice as long as LSU. The defense played their best game of the year by far and its why we won

This offense's kryptonite is crowd noise. It's unreal.

Our drops sucked no doubt but I felt like i was yelling at Nuss like the good days to run the damn ball. Regardless, great calls to tie the game and even better to win it.

What I dont get is that he stubbornly sticks to something that the team really isnt that good at. I could see Arkansas or Auburn stubbornly sticking to their running game because that is what they are known for.
Bama should have been pounding the ball against LSU the minute Sims started off shaky.

We run so much better from the pistol. That read hand-off going sideways kills us. We were getting five yards a pop from pistol.

That's amazing. He did the most with his lone opportunity.

I thought he called a decent game. One of our two RBs were banged up, as well as some of our OL. He tried to counteract it by throwing some quick passes. It just happens that Sims played like shite and we had a few drops on top of it.

Thats right, it could have been much worse. I never said why did we call that? Like I did when TAMU run a toss right in their own endzone tonight.
We aint perfect, but no one is.
Just win baby, RTR.

Simms missed a TD to Jones on our first or 2nd drive.
Coop dropped about 4, Simms was off about 10 bad and threw 5 or 7 away.
I agree, we need to establish the run I'm this type game, but if Simms hits those passes they take 8 out of the box and we can run.
For some reason Simms freezes up on the road until the two minute mark.
Glad the last two are at home.

I agree Kiffin didn't call the best game. He obviously planned to beat LSU with finesse and it bit him in the arse, but...... The adjustments he made to win it in the end was beautiful. Also, kudos to Blake Sims and Adam Griffith for overcoming adversity and being clutch when it counted. Nice catch in OT to win it too DeAndrew!

This is what I generally thought as well.
However, I still must question the number of passes we had in the game and the lack of run plays against a team that has a strength in pass defense and was known to be softer against the run.
