Actually, LSU has won that contest 7 out of 10. As in 7 in the last 10 years and 9 of the last 12.

plus another one not called deep in auburn's territory. and no, auburn didn't "recover" that fumble. the refs blew the whistle dead before anyone did.

Then all the help from the refs
oh good grief this has been beaten to death. the calls were valid and 2 or 3 more could have been called. i haven't seen any auburn fan name anything lsu got away with that wasn't called.

and if you look at the passes, it's likely the lsu receivers would have caught the passes if auburn hadn't been too handsy. those would have been huge gains instead of just 15 from the los.

That's pretty good on the road in the SEC!


Damn right, and in one of the most hostile environments in the SEC.

They non-called Williams on his PI late in the game yet gave LSU two first down for the same thing they had just committed.
let's see some evidence. btw,

1. penalty on the game winning kick for climbing on another player - not called
2. russell offsides on the last 3rd down of the game - not called. might have led to a first down.
3. missed fumble on auburn's 2nd drive - not called. not even reviewed. not even reviewed after lsu took a timeout. SHADY
4. PI easily could have been called in the ez on pass to jefferson late 3rd q
5. pf on "the defense" after the 4th down stop in the 1st quarter -
6. roughing the passer right before the half - meh. it's football not ballet
7. 2nd and 10 3 minutes before half, wanogho holding anthony to spring shivers - not called
8. no reason to overturn the first down review at the beginning of the 4th quarter. there was no camera angle that showed the ball. if you can't see the ball, how can you tell if it crossed the line when the player is on the line? you can't. there has to be indisputable evidence and there wasn't. again, shady

If you had simply said AU's defense played well enough for Auburn to win, you'd have been OK. Gus made a bonehead decision early in the game going for it on 4th down instead of kicking a FG. Auburn also committed two other TOs and too many penalties.

Credit to LSU for protecting the football (no TOs) and making the clutch plays needed to win a hard fought game in one of the toughest places to win on the road in CFB.

But their hurry up offense went feast or famine too quick it looks like and they kept giving the other Tigers too many times at bat and the key stat was turnovers: 2 by AU and ZERO by LSU. AU wins that contest 7 out of 10 easy. Sometimes you just lose as ole Pat used to say.


U are drunk. There is pretty much no significant statistic that shows auburn outperformed LSU in any way. They lost every key match up. At home. If you call what Auburn did as shutti g down LSU then what do you call the absolute raw dogging that The LSU D gave Auburn?

And technically LSU had a turnover, the turnover on downs on the fake punt attempt, for whatever reason they've never counted turnover on downs as a 'turnover' even though the result is basically the same as a lost fumble or INT.


So Auburn had 3 TO's then, Auburn turned it over on downs with 2 interceptions? That's one way to put the opposing offense on the field. Auburn allowed way too many 3rd down conversions and PI calls (cough cough lol). That's what killed Auburn.

And to think it took 6 jobless Carlson FGs and a snap a split second too late in 2016 to keep LSU from winning 10 of the last 12 against Auburn.


That's a pretty a-hole thing to say about a player. Says a lot about you as a person.

Watched the game. The refs had nothing to do with the winning or losing. So you are full of it on this point Captain. AU turned the ball over. And the hurry up was hit and miss and kept giving the ball to LSU. I will say this LSU is mastering the win ugly technique.

Saying a person sucked so bad at their job they got fired is assholish? That's a new one

Take all these lame stats and shove it, we lost 22-21 and that's all that matters. We got what we deserve for not putting the game away when we had the chance.


Yep. Pretty much sums it up.

You are a tool. Auburn could not run the ball. We owned the clock. They had trouble scoring also. Please post the record for last 12 games it kinda fits your 7 out of 10 without the easy part.

Really would like to know how you could come to this conclusion if you look at the stats.

250 yards on those 15 completions. 

Completion percentage is a misleading stat from this game. 

LSU didn't have a bunch of drives where they got a few first downs and then punted. It was either 3-and-out or resulted in points for the most part. 




One of those was for 71 yards though. He had some clutch throws, I'll give him that. Thought the 3rd (maybe 4th?) down play on the winning drive was a a great play call and resulting toss.

But you can only polish it so much. Completion %, pass efficiency, YPA, Rating, etc... are all better indications of the big picture.

It's comparable to Hurts. Let's say he is that super clutch all year, and we aren't just seeing a skewed result due to small sample size, eventually does the lack of production catch up to you?
