There are few things I enjoy more than watching Bama lose.  Admittedly this is sad commentary on me as a person, but I derive intense satisfaction each time I see this..

 No one could ever accuse Chad of "pushing sore Butt baby ducks into salt water"!  LOL

Sorry Chad, couldn't help that one!

Congrats to you Chad!...Good game!

Thanks Dave, it was a defensive struggle.  A lot of talent on display in Tuscaloosa Saturday night...

[AlabamaDave]

A lot of them guys,on both teams...will be earning paychecks from the NFL one day....They were pretty evenly matched saturday night...Good game!

2 great teams.  if they played again, i'd be surprised if bama didn't win. i think bama dropping only 1 spot was the right move.  they still have an outside shot of playing in the nc game, or at the very least, a bcs bowl.

Best defensive game I have ever seen. Alabama won the game everywhere but the scoreboard, which is the only place that matters. I find it Ironic that Saban preaches to play for 60 minutes and decides not to play the last 1:48 seconds of regulation.

Funny that you don't have the Honey Smoker clubbing Kirkpatrick as a gif. That would properly show that LSU class.

I'd feel guilty about that play if it had any bearing on the outcome of the game.  But it didn't..  Miles out coached Saban again, end of story.

LSU out rushed Bama by a large margin.  Ingram was not a factor.  LSU had more redzone visits.  LSU's special teams were better in all phases of the game. 

Saban blew his opportunity by continuing to take long FG chances.  Saban knew Maze was hurt and put him in to return punts anyway.  The result a 73 yard punt that turned the game toward LSU.

I wouldn't mind a rematch, but I don't see it happening.  I believe the SEC is the best conference in football, but the only way to prove it is to beat teams from outside of the conference.  Besides, what does LSU have to gain in a rematch?  They already beat Bama at home...

neither was cecil collins.

and fsu and florida played twice in 1996, with fsu winning the game during the regular season and florida winning the sugar bowl and the nc that year.

  Ingram, I was carrying on a conversation about the Saints wasting draft picks while typing.

Oh well...  Don't hate on Cecil, he's been a model inmate.

The game you refer to in 1996 was pre BCS and not a matchup of #1 vs #2 for the title as would be the case now.


Again, I don't see a rematch happening here.  If LSU runs the table it's academic and they are in.  I think the computers and polls will place an undefeated or possibly even a one loss OSU, Stanford, or OU ahead of Bama if they play and win their conference championship.  The only way I think we see Bama in the NC is if LSU falls apart before the SECCG or if there is collusion among the poll voters.

I think the representatives of the respective BCS conferences would have a thing or two to say if a team(Bama) which didn't even play for their conference championship leapfrogged their champion in the polls.  Which is why we need a playoff.

Maybe, but the big 12 doesn't have a championship game this year...
