TAKEAWAYS

- The LSU redzone offense is horrible right now. You cannot trade 3's for 7's.

- This offensive line is not very good. LSU gave up 7 sacks in this one. The Tigers only gave up 6 sacks the entire season.

- Finally, the Tigers utilized Mason Taylor and Caden Durham. Both of the Tiger playmakers were very involved in this game plan.

- I am tired of seeing Brian Kelly blame others. You make way too much money to not take accountability.

- Slade Roy has the yips. I am a huge fan of Slade, but these snaps are a problem right now. He has to find it.

AWARDS

- Offensive MVP - Aaron Anderson - Big Play AA always shows up when he is needed the most.

- Defensive MVP - Dahvon Keys - The freshman stepped up in this one. Keys led the team in tackles and had a pass breakup.

The Tigers welcome Vanderbilt to Tiger Stadium Saturday night.
