On the same token, if the same calls (or no calls) that did not favor LSU would have been called for A&M, would you not have been upset also?
I would have been upset, but I hope I would have the integrity to admit, in hindsight, that the only contestable call was the fumble/incompletion. And I think the officials got that one right, too. I honest-to-God don't think we benefitted from a single bad call. We did benefited from the no-call on Williams when he moved early, as yall benefitted from the no-call on the PI on 3rd and 5 on the second to final drive of regulation.

I don’t buy the fumble/incompletion.
If Sternberger caught it in the end zone and it was ruled a TD, LSU fans would have the opposite take. 15 years ago that was a fumble. In today’s game it’s an incompletion.
The refs are consistent in that regard. Look at that ole miss catch last week. Caught it, two feet down, fell onto his back, then had ball stripped...incomplete.
I don’t agree with the rules but that’s the rules these days, you have to maintain possession longer than in the past.
