LSU Eye in the Sky: a few oddball plays you may have missed…

Surgeon General’s Warning: if you are pregnant, or plan to become pregnant, don’t read this b’log, it may be hazardous to your O&M health, as I had a desperate time finding good VT plays. But nonetheless, here goes…

  • 1st Quarter: 14:20, 12:27, 11:00 remaining, #70 of LSU, Ciron Black, had a sit-down steal, a beautiful retro chop-block (which is legal between the offensive tackles), and a near miss steal on Vince Hall. Mr. Black can drink from my canteen any day.
  • 1st Quarter: 9:00 remaining, check out S.Render’s new Mohawk Mr. T look.
  • 1st Quarter: 1:24 remaining, see S.Glennon erupt on #81 J.Harper on the INT throw, I expect SG felt Harper ran the incorrect route.
  • 1st Quarter: 0:00 remaining, watch #64 (Allen), and #74 (Helms) of LSU execute an old-school fundamental double-team pancake block.
  • 2nd Quarter: 13:08 remaining, see B.Ore with an 0-2 count for two whiff blocks on one play, just one strike short of being “Mighty” Casey.
  • 2nd Quarter: 13:04 remaining, very same thing, B.Ore swings and misses, again, this time on #7 (linebacker if Ginko serves) of LSU.
  • 2nd Quarter: 11:49 remaining, #26 of VT, Mr. Cody Grimm, at least he is willing to hit somebody on our Kickoff Return!!!
  • 2nd Quarter: 9:46 remaining, synergy is not our middle name. Check out Harper yelling down Glennon for the MLB grounder he threw from short-stop.
  • 3rd Quarter: 7:07 remaining, #51 of VT, Mr. Matt Welsh with a poster moment, as he mini-me pancakes the very likely #1 Draft Pick of the NFL Draft this spring. Dorsey did not like this, and told Matt as much, in so many non Disney words.
  • 3rd Quarter: 5:05 remaining, my boy T-Mobile with the Bernie Kosar’esq stance under Center.
  • 4th Quarter: 13:00 remaining, note how late our Safeties were in subbing in, they are about 30 yards off the LOS.
  • 4th Quarter: 6:45 remaining, see the most politically correct pancake you will ever see, a kinder gentler play by #66 (Holmes) of LSU.
  • 4th Quarter: 4:30 remaining, note a not so gentle pancake by #63 (Miller) of LSU.
  • 4th Quarter: 1:22 remaining, check out Ike Whitaker, lined up offsides at WR, ref’ correctly did not call this, to allow the game to end A.S.A.P.

Per always, there was lots more, but it to is all LSU. So I’ll end things right there and look forward to seeing us maul the Bobcats this Saturday on ESPN360. b-st.
