We did the exact same thing in 2010 against Bama in Tiger Stadium. We went up 24-14 and went into a soft defense with deep-zone coverage in the Secondary. We allowed them to score but made them chew up time. We beat them by pulling away late in the 4th quarter, but trust me, 24-21 indicates that we went into a prevent defense and allowed them to score the last time instead of giving up a big play on a busted coverage or overaggressive call that would leave more time on the clock if they got the ball back.
But somehow, when we do this against your team, this isn't the same?
Saying you scored "quickly" when there was about a half a quarter left is not using context. You burned the clock to the point that once we recovered the onside kick, you had less than 15 seconds and no timeouts and you were pinned deep in your own territory.
This discussion highlights the idiocy and simple lack of football knowledge from most A&M Fans.

You're missing the point. LSU fans are discounting the final score. Are you saying that the Bama game was a total blowout in 2010? The final score was meaningless?
This game was 14-12 until 8:35 left on the clock in the 4th. A&M played good enough (strategically) to win, but missed some opportunities and made some mistakes. We don't really need to change much to beat LSU. We just need to protect the football and hit extra points and short field goals.
The premise of this entire thread was frick THE SPREAD. IT DON'T WORK IN THE SEC. LSU PROVED IT.
