What makes you LSU fans who are continuing to bitch about the int. think J. Lee would have driven the ball 65 yds. on our defense?

Not trying to flame, I completely agree it was an int. but want to know if you honestly think this was a possibility?

Your losses were to #1 and #2 teams in the BCS, that's pretty solid right there

That was part of the game plan. It was a rope a dope strategy. Then the blown int phucked it all up.


Seriously, o was getting shut down. J Lee was scared shitless of throwing a pick 6, at least that is what I thouhgt.

The fact that your go ahead touchdown came on one simple wide receiver screen for 73 yards.

I dont think we wouldve drove, honestly. But I would have liked to have had the chance. Who knows. The refs didnt even give us an opportunity. Damn sure cant do it, without given a fair chance to do so.....

you never know what would have happened. it would have been nice for LSU to have been in that position though.

ETA..lee made two passes in that game that picked up huge yrds. one was called back due to a penalty, the other was 3rd and 25, LSU picked up 20.

Once again you miss the point. The oppurtunity is all that couldve been asked for and we were denied. Would we have scored... Probably not but being afforded the chance on such an obvious play is very frustrating to say the least.

I was listening in too lol. Thought about posting that fact. Alas, you beat me to it! I was impressed by that until I realized their big guns had been rendered useless by that point in the ball game.

Agreed. Lee took us down thanks in large part to the running game for a go ahead score earlier. And Lee also had a nice completed pass that would have put us near the redzone called back a possession earlier due to a penalty. Not saying we would have won, but there was a chance.

With 5 minutes we had plenty of time and then some to mix it up to go only 65 yard. Being down by 6 points is alot different than 9. Also, an INT gives much better field position than a punt. Asking JLee to throw 80 yards with 2 minutes left and score twice is quite the opposite!

How do you get yards when refs blow a call and give the ball back to the Bama offense and LSU stays on defense?

Another LSU friend of mine and I were talking about it this a.m. and I asked her if she honestly thought they would have driven the field with no time-outs and she flat out said no. Now granted they could have had some jail-break play but I'm sorry I just didn't see that happening

He drove 59 yards on his first drive, and was not at fault for the horrible call on 3rd and 1 on his second drive after he completed his only pass on 1st down.

When LSU had to predictably pass, he got in trouble, but it's not like a long TD drive was impossible if LSU had more time.

Not the point big boy. How long have you been watching college football? All it would take is one missed tackle or one broken play and it's gametime (see Julio's one play of the game). Do I think we would have gone on a 12 play, 4:30 minute drive? No. Do I think we could have busted you for a long play and won the game? Yes. The point is not whether it would have happened or not. The point is that the OPPORTUNITY to do so was taken away.

like i said, he had two huge play's vs bama. one was called back, the other was 3rd and 25 and he threw a 20 yrd pass. it's hard to say, but it would have been nice to have been given a chance to know for sure.

You choose what you want to see. There have been numerous times this season where an offense is held in check only for them to score when it really mattered.

In the Georgia game earlier this year, LSU had a grand total of 6 yards of offense and no first downs in the second half. With 6 minutes left in the ball game and UGA leading, we drove from our own 12 to the UGA and scored a touchdown to regain the lead.

Obviously Bama's defense >>> UGA defense, but its not like it couldn't have happened.

Iagree with you but I would much rather of had the shot and failed than being wrongly denied the shot. thats what i bitch about when i talk about it, not how it cost us the game. you will understand though when this shite happens to you in he SECCG as the SEC will make sure its poster child gets back to the national championship
