This game will be forever remembered as a battle for the ages, mostly because of the sensational ending.

But truly it wasn’t for the faint of heart. LSU punted 11 times. The teams combined for 18 total penalties and nearly 200 total penalty yards.

The teams amassed 529 yards of offense… in total. Both teams completed fewer than 50% of their passes. It was ugly.
