It's probably a product of that great field position advantage LSU has due to their ST play.

Oh wait...

nope, it's philosphy. Miles/chavis feel when they are up big, ok to play soft, give teams the short stuff, let them drive and eat clock.

lsu let oregon do it twice late in the fourth, they let Au do it last week. second and third teamers in and Au put together a long 75 yard t.d. drive late. you can look at every game and see a late long scoring drive by lsu's opposing team.

Bama may have a better defense. That isn't my point. The point is our coaches don't put a emphasis on meaningless t.d.'s. it's strategy. win the game, the score, yards, ect. don't matter.
