    Early gets the personal foul on the missed Auburn extra point, then he drops the catch would have given us a chance to win the game. Nice game, Early.

    He's a freshman playing his 3rd game ever. Get over it, and try supporting our players.

    I didn't say I don't support the players but he and the kicker cost the game.

    The TEAM lost the game. Don't be a tool.

    I have to agree with WCT. Doucet just got an education in the big-time game of SEC football. I think LSU deserved to lose this game anyway, but they could have put themselves in a position to win it but failed to do so. The offense just isn't very good. Giving up 10 points in Auburn should be enough to win the game, but it wasn't. The D gave up a late TD and that is BAD, but the O was mostly ineffective all day. Doucet just topped it off, that's all. I don't put the loss squarely on him.

    the CBS announcers probably got it right. We had 3 seniors on the field that last drive and a freshman throwing to a freshman. These guys will pay off before they are done at LSU.

    So many things went wrong. Missed PAT, QBs that can't complete a pass, O line that can't run block. People are giving our D a pass but against someone other than Jason Campbell, they seem ready to get ripped apart. What will Leak do against our suddenly average CBs? How many missed tackles did you see today? On and on and on. Right now LSU is maybe #15 at the highest. Not top 10 material.

    You said it! Funny how he failed to mention the nice catches Early MADE--DURING THAT LAST DRIVE, to even put them IN a position to think about trying a FG.

    ...also, if he would have seen the replay, he would have noticed that the pass was thrown behind Doucet, causing him to turn and attempt to make the catch off-balanced.

    Don't blame Early for this loss. Gaudet's missed PAT was the reason. Chris Jackson should be the full-time kicker if you ask me.

    It hit his hands, no way you can defend Early Doucet for that dropped pass.
