Just checking stats. LSU had the ball over 9 minutes more than us. We gave their offense 2/3 of a quarter to operate more than us. Our offense, in the first half, put our defense in a bad spot in the first half.
We knew this would be a shootout, especially with our defenses deficiencies. This is not a shot at Tua, but I think the rehab kept him and the offense from being crisps in the first half. I also think we played tight and too conservative in the first half. I blame some of that on the game-plan, but I'm not sure if it wasn't because of the offense being out of sync.
