Wasted INT because the center can't properly snap the ball to the QB.

Never mind the fact that the 3rd down play should not have been a run.

Come on Dave. I believe it's twice now we could have had a field goal and been right in it. Too many points left off the board for stupid analytics.

Not only do we lose the 3, but give LSU excellent field position.

Aranda's in game coaching is worth at least 10 points a game for the other team.

Also, is it against the law to line up under center on 4th and 1?

Why turn it into 4th and 5?

These decisions by Dave are what people were worried about earlier in the season. These decisions cost games.

No, but he did leave a probable 6 points on the field due to dumb gambles.

Right, but he did cost us 3. Provided we make it.

The one on 4th and 5 I did not agree with. That one was 4th and 1. We should be able to get 1 freaking yard.

He did pass on three points, though. And he does that all the time.

In many of our close losses the last three years, we've passed on more points than we needed to win those games by going for it and failing instead of taking points.

I see they have no problem picking up the first down by running on third and long.

We're 5 years in and he still routinely makes moronic in game coaching mistakes that simply should not happen. No one takes points off the board quite like Dave Aranda does

No he didn't. But it never would have happened if he'd kicked the field goal. In this case we lose 3 points and if LSU scores it's a 10 point swing. The bad snap is not his fault. The poor game decision is.

Probably game. Self destruction. Losing Washington hurt but 3 fourth down turnovers is crazy

He decided on 3rd down with the run. I agree should have passed for an easy first instead of setting up a fourth and short on purpose
