BCS Championship Game - #1 LSU vs. #2 Alabama

[cheezy321]

LSU is getting thoroughly rocked. They do not look like a #1 at all. Its amazing considering the year they have had.

 

[Dedpuhl]

Here's to next season with a Jefforson/Lee free season. Let's hope Zach Mettenberger takes control of the offense...

 

[MetalMat]

I am listening my Sirius Radio and Mad Dog radio mentioned that even if Alabama wins they might not be the national champ because of the AP poll? Huh?

 

[Fingolfin269]

Q Actually, yes I have, and OKST out shined LSU this year.

Explain.

 

[sactoking]

I think if Musberger says 'honeybadger' one more time I'm going to puke

QFT, that's probably the stupidest thing I've heard in a month and he is saying it nonstop.

 

[abaez]

LOL, announcers going crazy about LSU just GETTING to the 50.

 

[Fingolfin269]

Skill and good luck, and some times a coaches instinct or gut call like the punt rooskie Bobby Bowden called against Clemson years ago.

Oh yeah I see how that had a huge impact on what LSU did this year. Good 'ol Bobby Bowden! Man it's just a great time talking football with you.

 

[conehead433]

I'm not saying LSU didn't have a great team this year, but sometimes being undefeated doesn't mean you were the best team in the country.

 

[abaez]

It's over.

 

[Svnla]

Fumble and I bet Jefferson will STILL be the QB for the next offense series.

 

[chowderhead]

I guess LSU got exposed.

At least Auburn got lucky on a few games last season.

 

[Fingolfin269]

LOL LSU just fumbled back on the 50 or 49 so does that mean they still never technically made it past mid-field?

 

[Fingolfin269]

This matchup was LSU's worst nightmare. I'm sure they would have preferred to play anyone other than Bama in this game. (and probably should have played with Ok St or Stanford imho)

 

[kalster]

so much for Defense wins championships. Having a poor QB DOESNT WIN championships

 

[Gigantopithecus]

Right, except for the part about the best college defense in a decade or more winning the championship.

 

[conehead433]

Explain.

You can easily Google the stats yourself. I think this game already has explained it for you.

Obviously not as many times as LSU got lucky.

Hey!
Jesus plays this Saturday.

 

[Svnla]

TD Bama. LSU defense finally worn out. Game over. Miles and Jefferson and the OC can suck it.

 

[SP33Demon]

Nail meet coffin, or Richardson TD. Bama should have 2 more of those if it weren't for Saban's stupidity in the first half. Absolute domination by Tide.

Edit: They need a new kicker though. Wow where did they get this scrub? Who misses extra pts?

 

[Gigantopithecus]

NOOO... Shelley missed the +1!

He still deserves the MVP!

 

[RavenSEAL]

Most boring football game EVER.

 

[Gigantopithecus]

Wow where did they get this scrub? Who misses extra pts?

That "scrub" won them the game. He probably missed it because he's been kicing 40+ yard field goals all night and his leg is sore.

 

[MetalMat]

SO LSU needs a TD, then an onside kick and a TD, then an onside kick and a TD. It can be done right?

 

[Fingolfin269]

Here's one for you that I don't even have to look up...

LSU's finally about to lose to Alabama in the national championship game, a team they also beat earlier in the season. Oklahoma State lost to Iowa State who lost in the New Era Pinstripe Bowl (???).

LSU beat the winner of the Rose bowl, Orange bowl, and Cotton bowl.

Here's something I did look up since it's the only thing I can think of we have to compare the teams on...

Arkansas beat Kansas State 29-16. (13)
Oklahoma State beat Kansas State 52-45. (7)
LSU beat Arkansas 41-17. (24)

I mean let's be honest there's really no way to directly compare but if we're grasping at straws here Arkansas beat Kansas State almost 2x as badly as Ok St did and LSU decimated Arkansas.

LSU > Ok St? Hell I don't know. I just know they had better wins and a much better loss.
