Brian Kelly's Bold Forecast Hurts Lsu's Defeat Against Florida State

Brian Kelly's pregame comment about No. 5 LSU defeating Florida State is not something coaches say anymore due to social media.

To defeat No. 8 FSU, a team's stars must perform well. LSU lost to the Seminoles 45-24 in a game with a loud crowd.

Jayden Daniels, a top Heisman Trophy contender, couldn't secure a win against the team with the better quarterback.

Jordan Travis exploited LSU's weak secondary, throwing for 342 yards and four touchdowns. Daniels had difficulty making reads on important short-yardage plays.

LSU failed on three fourth downs. Travis made a big play on a crucial fourth-and-2 to help the team take the lead in the third quarter. 

The game hinged on four fourth-down plays. LSU failed all fourth-down attempts. FSU had a perfect record.

LSU regretted missed chances, but Travis excelled in the second half to prove he's the better Heisman choice.

LSU had high expectations for the College Football Playoff in Kelly's second season.

The LSU playoff is not important. LSU's schedule makes it a challenging high-wire act. Matching last year's 10 wins will be a challenge.
