I stopped flipping to the A&M game when Delpit got that pick to seal the win. Much to my surprise, they cut in later to say 'we have overtime in College Station!' I still didn't see the replay to see if it was a good call or not, but that was one hell of a football game by 2 teams who refused to lose.
Corey - the replay at the end of regulation was that Mond knelt down to pick up the ball for a 5 yard loss or so. It was unbelievable that they actually reviewed that portion of the play, but it was up on the big screen zoomed in to show that he was clearly down. That game was nuts. Ed Orgeron got the ol' Gatorade bath when the interception was made, with no Aggie timeouts left. OOPS!

Holy Sh!t I'm tired. Got home at 3:15 and then the damned cat woke me up at 7:45 so not really all here yet. Wow... What a comeback and finish. The Tennessee game a couple of years ago was wild, but this one just knocked it down a peg. Did I ever tell you guys how I hate L$U? Yeah... well that makes this one even sweeter. First time I've ever heard their sorry-ass fans leave a stadium quietly (win or lose). Yeah... I'm gonna bask in this one for a long time.
LSU fans are complaining that the officials robbed them at College Station on Saturday night. They feel they legitimately won in regulation and then that pass interference call on the last 2 pt conversion giving the Aggies a 2nd bite at the 2pt conversion. Not really noticed by many but Baylor beating Texas Tech was probably the last straw for Kliff Kingsbury and made Baylor bowl eligible at 6-6. That's a big accomplishment for Matt Rhule who took over a huge dumpster fire at Baylor in the wake of the Art Briles scandals.
If they wanna b!tch they need to first read their own paper: https://www.theadvocate.com/baton_rouge/sports/lsu/article_06501fc2-f079-11e8-86e6-afd6045d332a.html They probably have a gripe on the PI but after the way their DBs had been pre-tackling most of the night I was happy to accept a make-up on that 2pt try.
LOL...Jimbo's Nephew went after Kevin Faulk and then punched Steve Kragthorpe in the pacemaker after the game. Looks like a mismatch. I wonder what set off the kid? https://www.theadvocate.com/baton_rouge/sports/lsu/collection_eda2f82e-f11c-11e8-90de-3b3c0a5ad70a.html#4
There's a whole lot of conjecture in that little piece. With all the bodies milling around out there it's not hard to imagine some hard bumps occuring. What seems pretty sure is that Daymien Craig and Faulk had some words, and then there was an altercation between Faulk and denephew. I'll wait until all the info comes out to make a judgement. In the mean time, I offer this bit of humor:
T - here's the latest video starting before the "punch" to Kragthorpe https://i.imgur.com/DliOD2w.gif It looks to me like Cole was deescalating the situation started by Craig when Kragthorpe ran from his sideline to yell back at Craig. Cole then pushes Kragthorpe back to keep the two separated. Of the five people in the situation (Craig, Cole, Kragthorpe, Kevin, Battle) Cole appears to be the only one trying to prevent a situation, yet he's the one being attacked and smeared.
