    Those kicks wouldn't have been good from 47 either.

    Les is so conservative, he has a picture of Grover Norquist on his wall choking an offense to death in a bathtub.

    If that kick veers left, LSU loses. 1 "if".
    If MSU doesn't get delay of game, LSU probably loses. 1 "if".
    If Miles doesn't pucker up, MSU isn't close. 1 "if".

    The refs get paid to decide "ifs", so hanging your hat on that doesn't hold much wait. We still have to play the refs when we get Bama.

    The kick is kicked differently from 47. And when bone head gives the guy a second chance who knows.

    Everyone wants to talk about penalties but won't admit a delay of game penalty saved our ass.

    Refs are part of the game, just like bad weather and injuries. Everybody has to deal with them. We won't always come up on the short end. Road games are like that.

    No one is asking for Miles to put Harris out there to sling it 30 times a game, but I don't think 30 percent of the time throwing it from play action on 1st down and 10 or 2nd and short would hurt us. In fact it would force defenses to back up and help open holes for Fournette the other 70 percent of the time.

    That is such bs. Everyone on the Les sucks, fire 'em all bandwagon is saying we only won because of Miss. State mistakes and a delay of game penalty. Go back and read the thread. 1 delay of game vs all of the Tiger mistakes and penalties is a wash in my opinion.

    If there is less penalties, then there is no delay of game savior feeling. Especially if we 2 tds are not called back.

    How is it BS when you sit there and point out that oh LSU was fucked by all these penalties but can't admit that Miss State was fucked by a penalty too. I goes both ways bro.
