Miss St waited till the 4th to put any points on the board ... LSU dominated play through 3 quarters and owned the LOS until the 4th ... again we were the toughest they played this season ... don't care what the scoreboard says. LSU needed a fluke play to Fournette and a punt return to pull this off. One other thing not mentioned here however I intend to go watch the replay:
We all want Shafer to be aggressive as he was on 4th down in the first half but consider the following, if he doesn't have Dixon run the fake is the Cole Murphy attempt before half easier and more makeable? Granted he should have hit it anyway but by advancing the ball and pushing it to the right hash did that impact the angle enough for Murph to push the ball into the upright? I bet he makes it if they don't run the fake and advance the ball based strictly on trajectory it would have gone in.
