LSU coaches knew that AU couldn't sustain drives on their LSU defense so they played conservative with a ground game. Mett didn't show he could make the plays and an interception might give the ball close to a winning field goal. Looked like the LSU had no concern for the AU offense winning the game so they just sat on a lead.

Mett played fine minus the fumbles. It was the OL not being able to pass protect that resulted in the staffs unwillingness to let Mett throw the ball.

IMO, if AU had a QB/OC that threaten LSU's defense, Miles would have planned accordingly. As it is, Miles chose to take his win, head back home and live to fight another day.
