Damned good work on the statistics, Farmer, btw. I gained a good deal of perspective in a 60 second read. I appreciate it.

A couple of LSU fans point to the games below as evidence of 3rd and Chavis responsible losses:

2012 Bamaa
LSU Points in 4th Quarter: 0.0

2012 Clemson
TOP LSU: 22:39
TOP Clemson: 36:21
LSU Points in 4th Quarter: 0.0
8 of 14 drives resulted in punts
1 drive with an INT

2013 Georgia
LSU gets the ball with 1:26 left to go. All they have to do is kill the clock... Plays called:
Drive is as follows
1st down: Pass for 18 yards
1st down: inc pass
2nd down: inc pass
3rd down: inc pass
4th down: punt
They left 52 seconds on the clock.

2013 Rebs
TOP LSU: 27:02
TOP Rebs: 32:58
LSU never scored in the first half. Had 3 INTs. Never led the game at the end of a quarter.

2014 Bama
LSU gets the ball at the Bama 6 from a fumble with 1:13 left to go in the 4th
1st down: No gain with Unsportsmanlike Penalty
2nd,3rd downs ineffective runs
4th down: FG
-16 yards and ran only 23 seconds off the clock.

2014 ND
TOP ND: 37:00
TOP LSU: 23:00
4th Quarter points for LSU: 0.0
Down 21-14 in the second, LSU has a turnover on downs at the ND 1. They couldn't convert a 4th and 2. Gave away points early.
Lost the turnover battle with a fumble in the 3rd
Got to the ND 23 and had a very makeable FG BLOCKED in the 4th quarter.

Hell, looking at the other side of the story shows that the offense really let LSU down.

Yes, Chavis is solely responsible for the above derpitude.

Not going to do the others but I seem to remember that LSU lost this one b/c of some really shitty offensive play calling near the end that allowed Clemson the chance to make the game winning drive.
