Butt hurt Buckeyes are never not funny. Trevor Lawrence was good enough to beat their asss, I know that.

First time all year he faced a legit defense. I don’t think anyone realizes what this means. But that’s funny.

My son told me before the game started that Lawrence could out scramble Burrow but his accuracy was a shotgun pattern at 50 yards.

You guys are funny. Assuming a question about a guy over throwing passes is me being butt hurt....guess again.
Was a legit question. I am not saying LSU defense isn’t legit, and the receivers might not have been open, but that results in incomplete passes, not announcers stating Lawrence threw 14+ passes thru the third quarter over his receivers heads. Anyone that has played football knows that’s the worst place to throw as they lead to interceptions more commonly than low throws. Also, most of the time when a qb is trying to hard they throw the ball low as they are putting too much pepper on the ball and it sinks. This is a simple football question. I wouldn’t have brought it up if I hadn’t seen the stat that was put on tv about it, as I didn’t watch much of the game.
But whatever, rib me all you want about being butt hurt. I am not.
I just don’t remember any qb in cfb having so many of his passes being noted as over the receivers head in such a big game. Defense or not, that’s a qb with a problem. He had a bad night for sure.

Interestingly, the one long pass I saw him make was the td pass he made well over 40 yards where the refs called off PI, a questionable call as the defender initiated contact never turned back for the ball, yet the pass was right there. He could make some throws

I believe the question should be why pack 12 officials was so pro sec every close call was in sec favor and stoppage by reply official always pro sec Fix fix fix Another real big head scratcher was two of the officials calling the game were downgraded by the PAC in league play and one was suspended for a game for their bad calls in a league game. The head ref was involved in a big scandal 2 years ago in a bowl game he was calling. Why the PAC sent a bunch of at best par officials is weird. The best of the best should get the game, and if that’s the best the PAC has, that’s just pathetic. And just so everyone knows, I simply googled who was calling the game and this all came up in the google search. I wasn’t looking for any of that info, but it was easily seen.

I promise this is not a bitter post, I haven’t commented much on football threads since my buckeyes were eliminated, but has anyone asked Trevor Lawrence how much he was promised to throw (literally) the game last night?
The boy could not complete a pass and it wasn’t because he was under that much duress...seriously, was he promised next years Heisman or something?
Has it come out he was hurt or something? When I turned it on in the late third, the stat was he had overthrown his receivers 14 times at that point in the game. Normally that means a lack of follow thru, not trying too hard, which normally results in dirting the ball. Either he was hurt, or he was offered something. Kids got too much talent to be that bad. Wow I was not going to say anything at first, but this statement is so ridiculous that it is absurd Think about it, if this were true how much would Trevor get paid?? Whatever that $$ number is it would be minuscule to what he would lose in future earnings such as his free College Education, NFL pay and endorsements, big money corporate job opportunities etc. Oh by the way I believe that is highly illegal so there is the chance of him going to jail or the big house!

No different than a Big10 official that was living in Ohio that was banned and somehow ended up officiating the osu UM game along with a couple of his buddies, one an osu grad... Stuff happens, get over it.

Buckeye is a little right but Trevor didn’t throw the game. It was our friends from another planet the aliens. They are LSU fans and made the football sail a little high. Yes ET loves LSU

You guys don’t understand tongue in cheek speech? The first part was setting up the last part....did it come out he was hurt or something. Of course I don’t think he was paid or promised anything, but he played a terrible game, that we know. I understand he was playing a good defense, but a good defense doesn’t make the qb throw the ball over the receivers head as many as many times as he did, that was solely on Trevor. Some of you need to not take everything written so seriously and realize there is something called sarcasm and humor every once in a while. That’s why I started the post with “this isn’t a bitter post” I guess I should have started it by saying “this isn’t a serious post, but let’s talk a little about football” Seriously people!!

He's been inconsistent the whole year, nearly got them beat by UNC and struggled with A&M. Honestly it seems like a pressure thing, which you better hope is due to youth, otherwise he's going to be a huge bust in the NFL.

He is inconsistent for sure, just was playing pretty well for the last 8 games up until this game. Truth be told, if he were draft eligible he would be a top 5 pick. Not saying he pans out as a good pick, but his upside makes him a good draft pick

Roll up a couple TD’s, play perfect football until some resistance is felt and then just lay down.

I was for LSU all the way , but The Clemson defense opened the game with a great scheme . LSU adjusted , then Clemson had nothing else. The defense seemed gassed in the 2 nd half , the pass rushers were not effective. they seemed to give up after the targeting call MO

I believe the question should be why pack 12 officials was so pro sec every close call was in sec favor and stoppage by reply official always pro sec Fix fix fix The SEC West since 2010 2010: Aub won natty 2011: Ala won natty/LSU runner-up 2012: Ala won natty 2013: Aub runner-up 2014: Ala beat in semis 2015: Ala won natty 2016: Ala runner-up 2017: Ala won natty 2018: Ala runner-up 2019: LSU won natty Maybe. Just maybe SEC West don't play. Best division (ever?). Between recruiting, coaching and developing talent. What I don't understand is why secondary coaches everywhere don't coach like them. Stingley and Fulton are good, but they hold, yank, hack, push, punch.. evvverryy sinnggllee playyy. It's like Seattles defense a couple years ago, maul the receiver every play and they can only throw so many flags. 'Physical' play like that elsewhere gets called much more often, in SEC games, not so much.

As an aside, I think the above contributes to the big 12 sucking a$$ at pass defense. They play off coverage, and when they lay a finger on a receiver it's a flag. SEC plays much more bump and run, much more physical, and the games are officiated as such. It's the Big 12's own fault, they have devolved to this point, but it's a hard road to climb up and out of. Just sucks to watch almost 2 different games being played when we get to bowls.

'Physical' play like that elsewhere gets called much more often, in SEC games, not so much. I agree but there was a Pac-12 referee crew for this game. I thought the PI in this game (called and not-called) was pretty average, nothing egregious. Did I hear right? Joe brady went to the NFL as an OC for Matt Rhule? Yes and Kuechly retired. Charlie
