the Bama qb is a first year starter and has played very well since the psu game. since the psu game Mccarron went 120+ passes without a pick. ask ut he beat them 2 weeks ago.
these are easily the best 2 teams in the country. should be a good game.

I'm sure Coach greatly appreciates this.

Bama has great lines and RB's. It will be tough I just dont see them losing.

SEC fan here so this game is HUGE. Pits best two teams in country against each other.

Two factors that I think set LSU apart from Alabama and rest of BCS teams -- turnovers & team speed. LSU creates turnovers on defense and special teams and avoids these (ask Michael Ford) on offense. Defensive ones stop drives and create points. Offensive turnover avoidance extends drives and creates points. Giant plus factor.

Every top SEC team has speed. LSU just seems to have great abundance throughout its entire roster. Ware and Mathieu get suspended for one game each. Respective replacements were just as fast and athletic. No let down.

Should be monster game. I have two scenarios: Bama wins 10-7, or LSU wins 24-17. And my gut says latter is most likely outcome.

Oh, raise your hand if you still believe Oregon Ducks are fast team... LSU hosed 'em Labor Day weekend.
