Big play doesn't make LSU coach happy

BATON ROUGE, LOUISIANA - Two days after LSU&#39;s last-seconds victory over Kentucky, the excitement on campus showed no sign of abating - and that was a problem for coach Nick Saban, who wants his players to keep a certain perspective. <br> <br> ``Just because we had the most exciting play in college football happen, that doesn&#39;t mean that there aren&#39;t a lot of things that need fixing,&#39;&#39; Saban said Monday. <br> <br> ``I&#39;m a process person. And the process that got us behind by three points in the game, that&#39;s what I&#39;m concerned about.&#39;&#39; <br> <br> LSU won 33-30 when Devery Henderson caught a deflected 75-yard touchdown pass from Marcus Randall as time expired. <br> <br> Saban wants fourteenth-ranked LSU to dominate opponents, not win by flukes, no matter how happy they make the fans. <br> <br> With No. 10 Alabama visiting Baton Rouge Saturday, Saban spent Monday&#39;s morning meeting Monday taking some of the fun out of the play for the team. <br> <br> ``I was up at 4:38 this morning concerned about it,&#39;&#39; Saban said. ``Not watching the play on ESPN because I could care less about it. I feel like the luckiest guy in the world, just like the guy that hit the lotto, whoever he is. <br> <br> ``I&#39;m happy for our team. And I was happy to see our players so happy. But you know what we need? We need our players to focus on what they need to do to get better as a team so that we have a chance to be successful in the future.&#39;&#39; <br> <br> Saban told the Tigers that as far as he was concerned they were beaten by Kentucky and saved by a lucky break. <br> <br> ``We have to put it behind us, but it&#39;s hard,&#39;&#39; said safety Norman LeJeune. ``We were in the cafeteria for lunch today and the cafeteria lady cane over and said, `Where&#39;s that miracle maker?&#39; She wanted his autograph.&#39;&#39; <br> <br> By the time the team got on the bus to leave the stadium in Kentucky, linebacker Bradie James had 15 messages on his cell phone. <br> <br> ``Everybody wants to talk about that one play,&#39;&#39; James said. ``I think I&#39;ve talked to almost the whole state of Louisiana and all the guys that left.&#39;&#39; <br> <br> Quarterback Marcus Randall agreed that the Tigers have to forget the big play, but acknowledged it was hard to do. <br> <br> ``Every time I turn on the TV they&#39;re showing it,&#39;&#39; Randall said. ``That makes it hard to put it behind you.&#39;&#39; <br> <br> Henderson, a converted running back who caught three touchdown passes against the Wildcats, is a shy person who fidgeted in the limelight. <br> <br> ``I stayed in and watched TV a lot this weekend because everybody was after me,&#39;&#39; Henderson said. ``Everyone in class is congratulating me. I&#39;ve been taking a lot of back streets trying to duck people.&#39;&#39; <br> <br> The play seemed almost like a dream in retrospect, Henderson said. He was actually out of position. Henderson was supposed to be in front of the group of players that batted the football around, in case it was tipped forward. <br> <br> He ended up on the side, however, and that turned out to be the right place. <br> <br> ``I saw it get tipped like two times,&#39;&#39; Henderson said. ``The second time I just put out my hands and pulled it in.&#39;&#39; <br> <br> The play, which LSU had practiced over and over, had never worked before. It may never work again, Saban said. That&#39;s why he wants his team to forget it now. <br> <br> ``It was the greatest play in Barnum & Bailey football circles this year,&#39;&#39; Saban said. ``That&#39;s great. But it&#39;s done and I&#39;m not a gimmick guy. So I&#39;m concerned about the nuts and bolts of what we&#39;ve got to do to get better.&#39;&#39;
