But if you're just toying with them out of respect, why throw a hail mary at the end of the half?



It was only 17-0 and we were at their like 40 yard line with a few seconds left, if we didn't try and put up points at the end of that 1st half there might have been 20 in the stands by the start of the 3rd Q. Just a too long for a FG but close enough to chuck it into the end zone situation so they tried it out

LSU fans for years now have complained about a lack of jump balls thrown. We have 4 scholarship WRs who are listed at 6'4 or taller, and we never use that height to our advantage. The guy who got the TD is lsted at 6'7.

The safe play, and one almost everyone makes there is to get a few extra yards for your FG kicker who can make that kick. You could make a very iffy FG a very makable one with just 6 to 7 yards. If that Hail Mary falls incomplete, he's kicking a 57 yard FG which is even a reach for him. Made no sense, especially if you are not trying to run up the score.
