The fumble was caused by his right hand. Not his ankle.

He threw for over 400 yards

Wide receivers dropped a couple of passes that were on point.

He wasn’t on the field for the muffed snap on the punt

He had one interception which actually was a stellar play by the DB watching his eyes.

He had 2 tipped passes by Rashard Lawrence who is, you know, kinda good.

Joe Burrow and CEH were dominating on the other side of the ball.

Your defense is Shite and last I checked Tua doesn’t play defense.

And yet the narrative today is y’all would have beat LSU if Tua’s ankle was 100%. Smh.

Oh....and y'all still don't have a SINGLE top-25 win. But, yep....Bama deserves to be in the CFP. Living off REPUTATION and not actual RECORD

It's just a ploy to get sympathy. Don't feed this shite.

I’ve seen posters claim he could have run it in for a touchdown inside the 10. Maybe, maybe not. But they scored 2 plays later on 4th down, so that’s a wash.

I havent seen this. Tua led a great comeback attempt when we got dominated in the first half. LSU made the plays to win in the second half. The defense didnt. Not going to whine like LSU fans have done for 8 years.

The slide at midfield on 3rd down. The play at about the 5 yard line where he didn't run in up the middle and instead threw a pass into the flat that was tipped on 2nd or 3rd down on the goal line.

Those were the only 2 plays where it really felt like he was making decisions based on his ankle to me, at least.

I'm answering this as if it was an actual question and not just a throwaway line to get to your real point about Alabama.

Did you miss the awkward slide short of the first down which resulted in a turnover after not making the first down?

The easy run for a TD he doesn’t take?

Nothing wrong with his arm though.

As you said though, no guarantee that 100% Tua changes the result given how well your offense performed.

Irrelavent.

LSUs defense was hampered by injuries/Divinity leaving.

It's all part of the game

And how quickly everyone forgets that Grant Delpit's ankle was bad too.

I would say the walk on to the field as the game was over where he suddenly started walking with an extremely heavy limp. That's my pick.

After the game was over he won an Oscar for that limp.

You could tell every time that he went to scramble that he was indecisive because of the ankle

- bobbled fumble in first drive, where he stopped suddenly
- several times that he could have run, but stayed in the pocket instead. One of those was right outside of the end zone

He was decidedly uncomfortable on the ankle. Any moron could tell as much - even cajuns

Every single play where he either stood or took a step.

There were a couple of times where had he been able to scramble or plant better that would have made markable improvement on his game. But LSU would have won that game even with a 100% Tua.
