OK, This about sums up the bowl game:
LSU 38: GT 3
LSU came ready to play, GT didn't. That's about it.
But I do have to say I have lost a lot of respect for Les Miles (
LSU Coach). I know he is trying to win games, but in the fourth quarter with less than 9 minutes to play and winning by 35 points, why the hell would you fake a punt? That's just rubbing dirt in a wound. Its not like taking several long shots at the end zone wasn't bad enough, no you had to go and call a trick play with the other team needing 5 touchdowns in 9 minutes. Not only had Tech not scored since early in the first quarter, but the defense was
utterly exhausted. What were you trying to prove?
I'll give you credit, you coached the hell out of the game. That
on sides kick in the first half was a gutsy call that broke Georgia
Tech's back.
LSU's offense crammed the ball down
Tech's throat and the defense played very well against an offense they had no experience against. So I guess just beating the team was not good enough, no Les, you were out to embarrass them. That's just low.
