The one thing I will say though is that it's not like we were gifted turnovers deep in LSU territory. Even though we got them we had to move the ball down the field. I'm all honesty the turnovers were nothing more than punts.

This is funny. I was wanting a list of his time management snafus in his entire career. LSU clocked the ball with 1 second, didn't call a TO this year, got lucky against TN a few years back, because they didn't have play in at the end of the game against TN and had the center not taken it upon himself to snap the ball there never would have a 12 man participation penalty. There have to be more instances out there. These are the ones that made him famous. The guys a repeat offender, spill the beans.

Well you were gifted in the sense that they were dumb mistakes. Especially on the 3rd one when we were moving the ball. And also don't forget the momentum that comes with the gifts. While getting the ball on your 20 from a touchback punt after forcing the other team's offense to punt it away will excite your crowd, it's nothing like getting an interception. It's a lot more exciting, and it also can frick with the opposing QB's head.

Well looks like you just listed the big ones

1. Ole Miss 2009
2. Tennessee 2010

Yeah, not calling a TO was dumb, but as I showed you, it's not the reason we lost the game at all.

True, but I bet there are more. Oh I can say this the INTs were more than punts cause they were in the endzone. It was like a 7 pt swing and not at least getting a field goal really hurts. We turned the into pts at the other end so it really was a factor. But never has a coach been so good who was so bad at time management. Les is like Elvis: truly great but with a fatal flaw.

Most will agree he's not a very good gameday coach. Seems to be unaware more times than he should.

You nailed the two. Both were against the rebs. Consider your team lucky.

As for the TN game. Ball isn't snapped , no illegal participation penalty

BUT

How both illegal substitution on the "D". They did line up with 13 players on defense. It's not like they were trying to get off the field. All 13 players were lined up in a defensive position.

Correct me if I'm wrong

BUT

Illegal substituiion is a PRESNAP penalty.

RIGHT???

Center really didn't need to snap the ball, flag should have been thrown.

It took one blunder...lord knows the TO call on Sat had nothing to do with that loss. 3 interceptions in the red zone and 500 plus yards allowed by the D will do that to you. Some folks just want to blame him for everything, but even the players this week are saying they know the blame is on them. To think otherwise is foolish.

You were gifted by the fact that we didn't get any points on any of those three drives, we score one time and this game belongs to the Tigers. So, yes....it was a gift to you.

The best way to respond to these people is "1963". Nothing more, nothing less.
