Agreed. But both Delpit and Greedy were in position to make the play and capitalized. What if they dropped it? But they didn’t. Burrow didn’t throw passes like that. But I guess he’s still inferior.

We out rushed you. That's a significant stat. Passing, Time of Possession, 1st downs, etc...were all within acceptable margins for the game of football. The major difference was TO's and points off TO's. The facts are clear.



We scored more points and capitalized on your team’s mistakes better than your team did on our mistakes. That’s part of being a better team. You play the hand you’re dealt. We just played it better.

I never said Auburn was better, but objectively speaking in a close game a team that makes mistakes and cost themselves points often loses even if they are the better team.


This is a steaming pile of contradictory shite. You clearly said AU was better despite making more mistakes. LSU is not inferior. They played your team toe to toe and won. Would the outcome be different if certain plays were replayed? Maybe, maybe not. Just accept it for what it is. It was a hard fought game. Both teams played ferociously. Stop trying to play down LSU’s win with excuses.

Both throws were terrible and can't happen from a 2nd year QB. Neither INT was a great play by the DB.

Watch the replay as your other LSU fans have said...Auburn recovered that fumble. Stop listening to Gary D.

You're the only person I've seen claim this (along with the PF being on Lawrence not White) and I've seen zero proof that you're correct.

Let me get this straight. The fact that your QB was worse...makes y'all better? The fact that we played opportunistically on D...makes us worse?

And Delpit 100% jumped that route. Identified the play and dove in front of your WR to snag it. No idea what you're looking at




He did not. Caught the ball on the inside shoulder...a mistake you teach Middle School QB's not to make.

I have already said I was only explaining why someone who was objective might believe Auburn was the better team. All stats equal. One team with 2 TO's that caused a 10-14 swing but still only lost by 1.

This is the equivalent of the "he had a shitty game if you take out the two 70 yard TD runs" argument. I'm tired of arguing with you about Delpit so I'll be the bigger man and admit that you're still wrong.

Nope. Agree. Stidham is a good QB, but I have seen enough the last two season to be concerned.

You are taking what I said without looking at what I was responding...a common occurrence on tRant.

If you are objective and look at the info. You'd say the game was played equal and one team had TO's that led to or took points off the board but still almost won the game.

If you want my honest opinion neither Auburn or LSU is a championship caliber team. We are better than average, but not what either fan base wants them to be.

The first INT was both a bad throw and a good jump on the ball by Delpit.

The second INT was an All American making it look easy. Greedy recognized the back shoulder throw and ran the route better than the receiver. 90% of CBs in college football don’t make that play.

We were better than you. I know that’s hard to hear, and you can celebrate your moral victory all you want, but we went into your stadium and outplayed you start to finish.

If so, how do you explain a 1 point win with a plus 10 point score margin via TO's. Do you gamble?

Turnovers are part of the game man. Good teams protect the ball and force turnovers.

AU almost won the game because of great defensive play forced our offense to go 3 and out multiple times. That’s practically a turnover. The same is said for LSU.

Neither team is a championshio caliber team, YET. I have a strong feeling LSU and AU are going to overthrow the current powers. I saw a ton of raw potential. Much of which improved dramatically for both teams in a matter of only a few weeks. The war has yet to begin.

He did not. The ball was thrown 4 yards from where it had to be placed. If you throw that correctly the DB can't jump it. Watch the replay.

The other throw was like Stidham threw it to Greedy. It was also not a great play.

Your OL rushed for less yards and gave up 1 more sack. They played better than you expected but still didn't play better than Auburn's OL. The difference in a close game was 2 terrible throws. Those throws swung the score 10 points or more. LSU won by 1.



22-21

Agreed.

I disagree that either team is championship caliber. You have to have better QB play or be able to run the ball better.

Appreciate the score clarification. 22-21 is indeed the 1 point win I mentioned.

Yall had about 10 yards more on the ground. We had over 50 more yards passing.

Now carry on with your moral victory bullshite.

This is another made up stat from you

Each team had one sack. You're even losing your moral victory.
