4.82 yards per attempt....which is not good.

If i threw the ball 600 times i could probably rack up some decent yards too.
I only bothered to read the first page...
It would have only taken Mettenberger 83 attempts to get to 276.

Anyway, offense in general wasn't the problem. A&M's 4.4 yards per play is over a half yard higher than any other LSU opponent this year. We had more first downs, were much better on 3rd down, had twice as many trips to the red zone, got the ball into LSU territory many more times than they did our territory, we ran 20 more offensive plays, and even slightly won time of possession (which I doubt any A&M fan expected).
LSU was better than us because they didnt make the same critical mistakes we did. They forced turnovers and we didn't They didn't have killer penalties on scoring plays like we did, or miss a chip shot field goal or extra points. They protected the ball and scored when given any opening.
"A&M lost because passing attempts and because 270 yards!" is dumbass talk and shows complete lack of understanding of football.
