They were not fluke misses, but they were very makeable field goals (at least 2 of the 4 misses were).

Alabama did what it took to get within scoring range. In fact, they did so more than LSU did.


Obviously not. We actually managed to get into the red zone.

You missed four field goals altogether. And it was apparent early on that your kickers just didn't have it that night.

The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.

Long field goals, but certainly makeable. And you know that a couple yards make a huge difference when talking about field goals.

Yep. 3 in regulation. Only one of those three were from 50+.

your kicker doesnt really have it in him to make a 49,50, or 52 yarder. Maybe the 44 yarder.

LSU winning was a direct result of stuffing your offense in OT when we needed to and our offense getting to the 7 yard line in OT when we needed to.

1 yard makes a pretty big difference.

He's made multiple 49 yarders. I don't know if he's made one from more than 50.

Because LSU's winning was a direct result of Alabama's missed opportunities. If Alabama makes just ONE of the field goals that was missed in regulation, then Alabama wins 9-6.



Oh really? Well """""IF"""""" Mathieu doesn't get penalized on Beckham's punt return to midfield, we only 20 yards to kick a winning FG IN REGULATION.

Listen to me very carefully.

You can keep trying to spin it. But you still won't win it.
