    Had LSU scored the TD on that last drive, could we have just kicked an extra point and won, or would we have been forced to go for 2 to win it?

    I have never watched a game get to that point, so I have no idea what the rule is.

    I assume we could have just kicked the PAT and hauled ass?

    Both teams must go for two beginning in OT#3.

    I think we should have gone for two in teh 1st OT but thats just the gambler in me.

    sad part was I was sitting at home, watching OT3, and thinking if we score, we will easily RUN it in for the 2 PT Conv..........:eek:
