Bcs game 2007

But then there was a blocked field goal. Besides the obvious fact of losing three points, that kind of play can seem inconsequential at times. But after that, it was like the teams changed jerseys. Matt Flynn, once tentative, suddenly was confident. Boeckman made a very poor throw against man coverage that resulted in an interception. Then he got rattled and started holding the ball, taking sacks at times when he should have been getting rid of the ball.

There were two drives that ended up in LSU scores that were helped by personal fouls on Ohio State -- a total of 60 yards in penalties. Those foolish penalties were un-Tressel like. Sloppy tackling is not what you expect out of the No. Where was LB James Laurinaitis?

He made a lot of tackles but they did not come at or behind the line of scrimmage. From the middle of the third quarter on, Ohio State looked like an ordinary football team. It looked as if the score could have been much worse if LSU had decided to put the hammer down.

It was over when As Ohio State started from their own 20, quarterback Troy Smith dropped back to pass and was hit by Florida lineman Jarvis Moss , jarring the ball loose. Florida recovered on the Buckeye 5-yard line and punched it in with a one yard touchdown pass from quarterback Tim Tebow to Andre Caldwell.

The half ended and the teams went off the field with Florida leading 34— The second half saw a much more defensive game, with no scoring in the third quarter. The Gator offense used up the clock, while the defense continued to stifle Ohio State's purportedly explosive attack. The lone score of the half came with just over 10 minutes left in the game, when Tim Tebow ran in a one yard touchdown score, bringing the tally to 41—14, which was the final score.

Chris Leak was named the offensive player of the game, and Derrick Harvey earned the defensive honors. The Gators held the Buckeye offense to only 82 total yards for the game, and Heisman Trophy winner Troy Smith completed only four passes for 35 yards and an interception. The Gators also dominated in time of possession, limiting the Ohio State offense to just over 19 minutes. American Football Database Explore. Recent blog posts Forum.
