    why run outside? Either run it inside or pass it outside. That play call alone likely cost us the game. In short, plenty of mistakes all around to blame the loss on.

    After the inexplicable drop the first time, Herman should have just taken the likely 3 points the second time after the gift interception.

    I felt like early on they played to not get Sam hurt. Lots of opinions on this board but mine is that if you want to win with this squad and you get down to the goal line it's straight ahead power with Sam and I f-ing dare you to stop me. Do it and you're a badass but you're going to have to stop Sam.

    Hell, just line Sam up under center for Christ's sake!

    Throw it to a 6'6" WR once or twice......

    Gee, at the risk of being negative and displaying low IQ like someone said, if Sam could put air under the ball and actually lead the receivers, throwing to 6'6" receivers may not be necessary.

    Several balls were under thrown, including the likely LSU interception that was graciously reviewed and called an incomplete pass.

    This. Put a 300lb dude behind him to push. Don't snap it back 5 yds. It's 4th and 18 inches. You go under center and have a guy to push. It's not complicated.

    Hermann is to blame for not having a goal-line package that can get 1/2 yard on a QB sneak.,
