That's three great games by these teams in a row.

Are you forgetting the bowl game last year?

Is it now some kind of rule that Bama gets to have not one but two NFL caliber running backs? Like, always?

Two games last year and this one. Two years is as far as my memory goes back.

Well, no doubt the bowl game was a great game for Bama. For LSU, not so much...

Has Lou Holtz's voice gotten worse? I know he's always had a lisp, but goddamn, he sounds like Daffy Duck. Like, almost exactly....

Yeah. Their regular season games have been ridiculous. The BCS game between LSU and the Tide...naaaaaaah.

Insane game tonight. I didn't know who I wanted to win. That last 3 minutes I wanted each team to move the ball. I did want LSU to miss the FG, though. I thought that would make the final 1:45 more exciting.

well, yeah that's what the Bama's OSU's and USC's etc do. That's what I used to wonder why every body made so much over UNC's recruiting under Butch. He recruited very well but nothing like what the true powerhouses do. And really the strength of the team isn't at RB it's O-line.

Hell of a game. Alabama gave LSU all they had and that was just barely enough.

I still say Oregon is the best team in college football (this year.) I have seen nothing by any team in college football that makes me think otherwise. USC played their best game of the season tonight, and lost by double digits at home. Oregon is that awesome. Notre Dame..... our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ was there at South Bend this evening making sure that 33 yard field goal that Pitt kicker made missed the goal posts. As a result, I think Notre Dame should drop from #3 to #4. That would be fair. Whether that happens or not is another matter altogether.

K-State will finish 12-0. Oregon will pass them in the polls (eventually) because K-State does not play another team this season that will help their computer ranking. What they have to hope for is that Florida knocks Alabama off in the SEC Championship. At this point, I think that is the only way K-State plays for the MNC. If they go 12-0 and they DON'T play for the MNC, our lady wildcat will never let us hear the end of it.

Evidently my memory doesn't go back to last January.

Florida won't be playing Alabama ya dumbass. Georgia will be.

Georgia is getter better each week.

I was ready to write Bama off after sitting thru the second half. Their secondary and their receivers were horrible.

LSU just thought they had the game won I guess. Not sure what happened on that last drive.

We were flat, no doubt. LSU had the stars aligned to win this game: at night, at Tiger Stadium, after their off week and Bama banged and had played a physical game the week before.

We were beaten, then the football gods intervened and set the world back on its correct orbit and axis.

And a nod to Saint Chavis.

Heh. Exactly. The Mustang Apostle.

AA needs killed.

LOL @ Bearhova

Okay fine. Then Georgia is K-State's only hope.

I fully expect ND to jump to #1 after that miraculous 3 overtime come from behind victory over vastly underrated Pitt while Bama squeaks by LSU.

I am afraid to check my fantasy matchup this week. I forget who I'm against but if I'm remembering who they have this week correctly they fucking wouldve crushed anybody this week.
