LSU Tigers head coach Lane Kiffin could barely watch anymore at Tiger Stadium. After quarterback Sam Leavitt threw his third interception of the night against the Texas Longhorns on Saturday, Kiffin dropped to his knees on the sideline, pressed his hands together and squeezed his eyes shut in sheer disbelief.
You could hardly blame Kiffin for praying. Leavitt entered the SEC showdown with nine interceptions through nine games, and his turnover troubles immediately resurfaced under the Baton Rouge lights. Texas defensive back Jelani McDonald haunted Leavitt all night, snagging two first-half picks, one at the Texas 32-yard line in the first quarter and another in the end zone from the 12-yard line in the second quarter.
