The fake

[MatthewM.]

i don't want to hear the "oh we weren't expected to win this game anyways" or the "to be that close with our backup QB was a miracle" BS. That fake field goal was inexcusable and so painfully obvious. I couldn't really sleep and if will probably haunt me all week.

Other notes:
-DBU better never call themselves that again
-Poole, wth are you doing kid?
-that was our ball when fournette fumbled
-everyone played their hearts out which was awesome
-treon was good enough to win outside of those last two drives but there were guys wide open most plays that he was just not getting the ball to. Hopefully that improves in time or we are in trouble
-game was lost because of the defense, but conversely the defense is the only reason we stayed in it
-**** that scrawny ass kicker
-you shouldn't be able to throw a pass forward with your knee on the ground
-Calloway is a monster
-seriously we lost on that ****ing fake again???!?!!!???!!!???!!!

Worse yet my boss is a Michigan state fan and will be talking about how awesome their win was blah ****ing blah diaf ****boy

The pass from the knee was a lateral but I get your point. The fumble was ours. We fought back like we always do with this team. No quit in them. We are at least a year or two ahead of schedule but I am still amazed at the improvement

 

[MatthewM.]

I don't think it was a lateral dude, the angle they kept showing shower the ball moving forward.

Any current or future UF coach needs to stop trying to block LSU kicks. If it is a kick off be prepared for on-sides. If it is a punt play safe for the fake. If it is a filed goal same thing. Miles has made a living screwing UF on fake kicks of all sorts. That was piss poor by the coaching staff.

Our special teams has been one of our biggest weaknesses all season. We need to put more emphasis in that area moving forward. I was surprised to see how poorly LSU ranked in returns, as well.

I numbered them for ease of reply.
I agree with all of this basically.

3- yes it was. There is video of grabbing in bounds.
5. this simple comment will get you grief. Its a simple fact/comment, but look out. All three observations in this I fully agree.
6. yeppers.
8.That kneeling holder throwing conjecture is a rules criticism but, I think they are given special dispensation that allows this and not being 'down'. Like sometimes 'y' as a vowel ). This needs to be researched for clarity, but I would agree it does;t 'seem' like it should be allowed but its standard trick playery.

THE FAKE...How many years/fakes have we seen form them. Somebody needs to gather them all up on tape and give it to Mac.

We needed that 2nd fumble recovery. It would have been one of my keys to winning fulfilled (2TOs). It would have been a game changer but it was taken away.

 

[Bernardo de la Paz]

If LSU kicks the field goal instead of faking it they still would have won.

 

[Captain Sasquatch]

If LSU kicks the field goal instead of faking it they still would have won.

This is probably true. The closest we got to kicking a FG the rest of the game would have been about a 52 yarder for Hardin. And well, it would have been a 52 yarder for Hardin.

 

[Gatorious]

If LSU kicks the field goal instead of faking it they still would have won.

This is true, but not the point. They could have scored 21 more and the fake Fg would still be a point of annoyance after all these times.

Mac talking about the fake FG at the 3 min. mark:

Les:

On Saturday's fake FG compared to 2010 vs. Florida...
"Well, it went the other way. It finished on the other side of the end zone, but it was very similar. The outcome was significantly affected by it, too."

I always have a problem with that on a knee and throwing the ball rule just as much as I think the quarterback going to the line to spike the ball to stop the clock is truly intentional grounding.

And I had just told my wife Miles likes to fake FGs right as they were lining up. Why was that not anticipated I'll never know.

[Jbossgator8]

Yeah LSU seems to do that to us every single year and we just can't stop it

 

[Swamp Donkey]

Amazingly, we pay a dude, some dude named Nord, to do nothing but be a ST coordinator. However, he apparently didn't get the memo that Miles likes to fake FGs and punts.

 

[Gatorious]

Furthermore, if we WERE prepared for it and STOPPED IT, the game would be 28-28, and we'd have the ball back on our 20-ish.

THIS to the entire thread. That play made me sick to my stomach.

I don't think you'll ever catch Mac again off guard on Miles. From what I seen thus far, he's attention to detail and knows he got burned. They may try it again one day but I am sure Mac will be looking for it. And as far as the knee on the ground I found this:

b. When any part of the runner’s body, except his hand or foot, touches
the ground or when the runner is tackled or otherwise falls and loses
possession of the ball as he contacts the ground with any part of his
body, except his hand or foot. (Exception: The ball remains alive when
an offensive player has simulated a kick or is in position to kick the ball
held for a place kick by a teammate. The ball may be kicked, passed or
advanced by rule) (A.R. 4-1-3-I).
