    It was a calculated risk but the potential rewards are huge, both in taking more time from the clock and keeping the ball away from the now awakened LSU offense; adding more points by FG or TD would stifle LSU's comeback attempt.If they had punted, my belief is that they were not sure if they could stop LSU which was running with all cylinders.

    Audacity is not a bad virtue in a coach.
