That 3rd and 8 was unbelievably bad playcalling. LSU had already established that they were rushing 3 and dropping 8. So on 3rd and 8, we come out with TWO RBs in the backfield, who BOTH run swing routes as check downs. So, we only had 3 guys running routes that could gain a first down, and they had 8 guys covering those 3. Of course, Johnson got 5 on the check down but was met there by a gang of tacklers - no chance to get the first.
