LSU v Texas, and other games of lesser import

LSU CRAMPS

I was very surprised at how many LSU players were down with muscle cramps.  At first I thought they were slowing the game, but it appeared real.  Sometimes there were 2-3 LSU players down at once.  Some players never returned.  It started early, but was especially bad right after halftime.  Texas didn't have isues with the heat like LSU did.

I wonder if LSU players were taking creatine at halftime (for quick energy and strength).  Without adequate hydration it can lead to cramps.

Surely they weren't simple out of shape.  Delpit, Divinity, and Shelvin all are quality players, but they went down several times.  WTH??

The heat of Sept. and August brings on cramps without good hydration. RTR!

I wasn't paying too much attention to the timing or players involved.  Texas fans thought LSU was intentionally delaying the game and started booing.  That's what I assumed; that it particularly happened when Texas made a big play and wanted to go hurry up.  The splayed roach act.  But I wasn't counting

The three players you name are all defensive players.  Did the cramps impact LSU's offensive players as well?

Yes, but not as many.

 I read somewhere on the internet that LSU coach said that they had no air conditioning in the locker room at halftime all they had was fans blowing 98° temperatures around

Well that sounds like Texas using all the advantages they could to try and win. RTR!

If it's a home and home series, next year LSU might just put Mike the Tiger's cage in Texas' locker room.

I just read an article that Coach O was aware of this before they got there and brought a bunch of fans.

Turn about is fair play..
