The LSU Tigers are trailing the Aggies on the road 21 to 17 against the Texas A&M Aggies in a game that decides first place in the SEC. The Tigers offense has had no trouble moving the football down the field the issue has been the Tigers haven't been able to finish off drives.

The inability to cash in drives for touchdowns has led to LSU attempting four field goals and they've left nine point on the board making just one field goal. Damian Ramos made his first attempt but, since that point its been an outright disaster.

The Tigers missed their second field goal attempt wide and while it was a deep field goal, Ramos wasn't helped as the laces were facing right. The third attempt was another deep field goal attempt and again the Tigers missed as Peyton Todd couldn't get the laces down.

As Texas A&M had all the momentum, the Tigers were able to get a 46 yard attempt to extend the Tigers lead to 20 - 14. Instead, Slade Roy snapped the ball early hitting Peyton Todd in the face as the Aggies were able to take over.

The missed snapped led directly to Texas A&M driving down the field to take a 21 to 17 lead completely flipping the game. The Tigers will need to figure out their special teams heading into the fourth quarter as the Tigers are going to need to win this one from behind.
