    Regarding the DB tripping...didn't they score 7 on that drive anyway? If not, I apologize. But I think they did...so it wouldn't have made one bit of difference in the game had he not tripped...except maybe Lee would've been given a more fair shot. When you look at it that way...maybe it would've been BETTER for that DB to score.:shock:

    People are reading WAY to much INTO WVU.


    THEY HAD 177 YARDS!!

    They averaged over 400 a game....


    IMO, if we would have ran the ball more, this game would have been 31-7

    Ridley had about 6 yards a carry. Miles should have caught onto that....

    LSu had 230 yards with 120 yards in penalties. WVU had 177 with 39 yards in penalties... sounds like a push to me. The only difference was Mr. Peterson.

    Had my Aunt had nuts she'd be my Uncle. I felt the same way, LSU was never in danger of losing that game. It was just how impressive a win it would be.

    That's just the thing. As anemic as the Tigers offense was, had JJ not thrown the int which gave WVU the short field that led to a td, us winning 20-7 and this game takes on a different perception. I'd bet that the discussion would ge of a completly different topic.

    Okay, our offense was abysmal, but the game wasn't a push. Aside from Mr. Peterson, once again, our dominating defense was the key to the game, holding a pretty good offensive team to less than half of its average.

    If our defense continues to do that, we're in every game, even with our offense.

    I would think they were trying to develop some balance and not over run Ridley in a game that they did, believe it or not, have control of.

    This is a silly comment considering they scored on that drive after the interception, pretty much the same thing as a pick 6 that he would of been if he didn't trip...no?

    Every drive they had was aided by stupid penalties.
