Take it.


Title: I'd say kick because LSU's

defense is their strength so I'd say give it to their offense and hope for a turnover in hopes of gaining momentum....their defense on the field first against what's sure to be a nervous Simms and Lane minus our best receiver doesn't bode well. Bray moved well in the pocket and found targets quickly but Simms is a sitting duck and LSU will be going through our OL like a hot knife through butter. I'd take the chance on the defense making something happen.

I typically like to see us defer to the 2nd half.

In a game like this, I would defer and let our D play first which keeps the crowd noise loud.

Take the ball and run with it.  Out of the Stadium.  Don't give it back.

Now that would work.  It would count as a forfeit, which is scored 1-0.   Then we could claim the moral victory in a one-point loss.   

Just kidding.... :biggrin:

Take it.

Yep, I say don't run scared.  Get the opening KO and run the ball (that oughta shock them).  OK, seriously, Simms needs to shake off the rust and the sooner the better.
