Garrett Nussmeier knew he had to push aside the mistakes if No. 16 LSU was going to finish a rally and win.
Nussmeier directed a final touchdown drive that ended with Josh Williams' 2-yard score with 1:12 left as the Tigers came back from a 17-0 deficit to beat South Carolina 36-33 on Saturday.
Nussmeier had thrown an interception at the goal line the series before, the last of several miscues he and his Tiger teammates made to trail much of this one.
"You want me to worry about the interception with three minutes, 45 seconds left trying to win the game?" Nussmeier said. "No. Let's flush it and go win the football game."
It's a demeanor and attitude LSU coach Brian Kelly as seen from his Tigers (2-1) as they fought back to win their Southeastern Conference opener and their eighth in a row over South Carolina (2-1, 1-1).
