Some of the more knowledgeable football people

Was our shutting out lsu in the second half more a product of defensive adjustments by the staff, better execution by the players, lsu more concerned with just running out the clock, or some combination?

Well asking the more knowledgeable football people, I better get the 99 bottles of beer on the wall ready.

Some of each. We played better and LSU wasn't gonna throw the ball unless they had to. We rolled McLaurin into the box most of the 2nd half I did notice that

Mullen said he just told the guys to play harder in the 2nd half. Maybe a combination of that and LSU putting it on cruise control.

I'm not qualified to answer. I know my limits.

Combination. In Second half Our gap fits were better for sure. Lsu prob felt they had game won and relaxed a little by human nature, but their play calling was still aggressive for a miles coached team in second half (they continued to throw it).

2 forced fumbles against LF were huge in keeping us in the game... both were great plays for defensive players to get the ball out

Smokey tightened his ass up. Des Harris played great along with big James. Our offense kept the ball and kept the defense off the field.
