I wonder if it's ever happened before?

    Do you think LSU is the first team to score a touchdown on the first and last play of the game, and none in between?

    I would think a number of blow outs happen this way.

    would it be a blowout if there are only 2 scores though?

    Well we did kick a FG in the middle of all that

    Though I was mainly referring to the first and last score of a game.

    Probably not, but I expect LSU is the team with the longest interval between touchdowns in a game, about 59 minutes and 5 seconds.

    Uh, I never thought of this.

    And I am guessing no one has ever accomplished this feat.

    Red, I think it's more like 59 minutes and 40 seconds. Not sure how long it took to return the kick (8 seconds?) and the run must have been no more than 12 more seconds.

    I didn't check the video. It seems like the radio call said that Jefferson scored at 55 seconds, but I could be mistaken. No reason to stop the clock after the kickoff return. I assume it was running.

    I think we scored in 17 seconds. I remember the guy behind me saying that took entirely too long and we suck. :hihi:

    Clock doesn't run after a kickoff unless I missed a rule change.
