I thought the refs called too many penalty’s on both teams, just let them play. That had nothing to do with the outcome of the game though. LSU just made more plays. Auburn made more mistakes and Gus was just Gus.

Agreed about Stidham. He shows flashes but doesn't sustain.

The PI calls and the non calls were frustrating, but in the end LSU made the plays and Auburn didn't.

I am one of the few Auburn fans that believes Stidham is good but not great. With our OL he needs to be great. I was surprised at how little pass rush we generated and IMO that is what won the game for LSU. Kudos to your OL.

Looking at the stats the 2 TO's were the difference, every statistical category was even except TO. We know it was a 7 point swing and based on the trajectory of the game and the drive the second one likely cost Auburn 3-7 points.

I agree with you last two points. We're not near a complete team. Oline bad. Dline didn't even try on pass rush. The dline just stood there.
However, the two bad PI calls gave them two 1st downs and 30 yards on the last drive, and the last fg.

2 gift picks, bad snap on the other fg (even tho it was 50+ yards, not taking the fg in the 1st, allowing 3rd down conversions all day, bad showing for Auburn.

Auburn is a much better team when they're underdogs with a chip rather than when they sit around blowing sunshine up each other's asses.
