The score was 6-3. Lsu wasn't getting a TD, another 3 would have iced it. He'd made those kicks before, I'd have tried rather than give up a chance on a punt return.
Pin 'em deep with a corner kick? Push them to the twenty. I watched those kicks like Alien... horrified.

Then why have the Maze throw that pass if you were well in his range? Like you said, he had already made a 46 yarder. Y'all were at like the 30 I believe at that point? Again, just a poor decision on the coaches part. I've not argued about the WR pass being a good call. I simply have stated my opinion on the kick attempts.
did you guys even watch the game? the call was fine. williams was wide, wide open, then for some reason the receiver that reid had moved up to cover (cant remember who), brought the safety right to the play with the way he ran his route. Now, even with all that, williams should have come down with the ball, he outweighed reid by about 70 pounds. Nothing wrong with the call. The players didnt execute. If williams catches the ball (which he got both hands on), its the genius play of the century and we are not having this discussion.

The WR pass was a great call it was just poorly executed. It was a sure fire TD that would have ended the game. Brandon Gibson ran the wrong route and thus bringing Reid into M.Williams area, not to mention Maze threw a duck. Even with all the poor execution M. Williams has got to come down with that ball.

It was a weird playcall at that time. TR had just ripped off a couple of nice runs.

The ball was intercepted because you had a receiver throwing the ball on a bum leg. No matter how wide open he was, you still had a receiver that can't throw trying to throw at home after a big play by Richardson, the best running back in the country, and you were in prime position to keep running the ball. You didn't, it was intercepted, it was a terrible call, we won.

Like I said, it was a bad call that resulted in a pick. You had a lot of guys doing things they don't normally do, they couldn't do it, and it cost you the game. Bad call. You're a blind homer though i've seen you post before.

If Maze led him like a QB would have, then Reid isn't close. You can call it bad execution but it was a dumb call in a close game. You don't need a trick play with a high probability of failure.

Its a poor throw because Maze isn't a good passer. You don't need to trick people when you're finally running the ball well. I disagree.

I cant disagree with that. Obviously if it works, then you look smart but it had a big chance of failure. It is not likely that Richardson turns the ball over against a tired defense that just allowed 2 big runs. I didn't understand it.

Punting the Ball from the 35 yard line would have been a horrible decision at most you gain 15 yards of field position.
How Cade remains on Scholarship while others are cut amazes me. He must know where the bodies are buried.
He has the upper body of a LB and the leg of pre-teen girl.

At most you gain 34 yards and the other team couldnt move the ball. Your kicker doesn't have 52 yard range.

"no matter how wide open he is". he was wide open enough, and maze threw a good enough pass, for him to get both hands on the ball. gibson runs away from the play instead of right into it, its a td, bum leg or no. It was a freak play. LSU was not defending it, and if executed properly would have been a td. good play call, turned out wrong. happens all the time

It wasn't executed properly because it wasn't a typical playcall. It wasn't thrown properly because it was a WR throwing the ball. It was a poor play call and was intercepted. The fact that he could have scored a touchdown doesn't change the fact that it was intercepted.

Honestly, I think its because its the SEC and shite happens. Hard to be excellent every saturday and who knows how the injury bug and stupid kids react to the pressure each week.
