It's LSU-Alabama Part II, winner take all.

Unless it's not.

Maybe they'll play again next week to decide a true champion. Discuss it here.

Everybody ready for the Cheat To Win Bowl?

Gonna take a nap for a few hours. I’ll be back after this shitfest.

Holy cow, it is off to an awful started with a LOUSY

rendition of the national anthem. The poor old guy couldn’t cut it. Really, they couldn’t get someone under 65 years old to sing?

The flowers and displays in front of the talking heads looks like somebody went to the dollar store to throw some flowers and beads at it. This is off to a BAD start.

No shit, couldn't find anyone better in New Orleans?!
Harry Connick Jr. lost his voice at the Saints game.
Yea get a local band to play
I feel dirty watching this..
I am prone to watch disasters
me too

I’ve watched every televised WSU game the last 7 years and had season tickets at DKR last year…

Anthony Laciura

Don’t know who he is. They said from some tv show that I never heard of. BIZARRO

Boardwalk Empire
I want bad calls

Bad penalties
Bench clearing brawls
Bo Pellini type tirades
a Blout sucker punch
A Suh Stomp
I want it all

and i want it now!
Which team does the Honey Badger play for again? .nt whills
Where can we get a punter like that?
Geez there is already a punt?
They're all about the D.
Labor Ready

pay for play.

Bama's offense looks like ours except for the completed passes
Sports bar quote of the night

"What’s the mascot for Alabama?"

Your call on what it is

Appears to be ribbed
...for Updyke's pleasure.
I wanna see if bama can kick a field goal tonite
Early punting advantage to Tigers
At least the Big12 refs

Made it into the NC game.

Expect some bad calls cause they'll prolly fall asleep

and get tired of standing around because there won’t be many first downs.

We're all about the D in the SEC!
Big 12 Crew

…punishment for overlooking Okie state

Horse collar?
We're all about the horse collar in the SEC!
Two runs on 3rd down

It’s refreshing to see a football game where neither team wants a TD

Even Brent knew that was coming.
I don't know if its refreshing, but it is familiar
It's called great defense.

Apparently.

Russelll Shepherd for LSU

Wonder what kind of curse Mack Brown has for him tonight.

OOB
Knee was down in bounds
Tide should punt from here
Miss the FG???

yes please

nvm...guess Bama's kicker decided to play today
Is it me or am I missing some penalty flags for shit like Horse collaring
Big XII officials

We don’t give a shit what they do

SEC doesn't recognize those pussy calls

lol.. take a wrong turn somewhere?

"Huge for his confidence"

“He was lethal in pre-game warmup!
.
- B. Mooseburger

Those 18 yard kicks are real confidence builders....sheeeesh
Anyone think Ash will look like AJ McCarron next yr with our O line
that dude has all day to throw
but AJ can't run...Ash can at least
He could be better.....if, big if, our O line can protect like Bama's
Bama OL playing well so far
can someone tell me if anyone scores a TD
I'll text you and wake you up.
You may be waiting for a while
yea im not holding my breath
Damn if Only we had that Swagger Kirkpatrick was looking for

Him and Machete that would’ve been insane

LSUs QB and receivers are hearing footsteps...they are cringing expecting to get clobbered when they run
Any truth to the rumor

That Saban will replace Mack for 100Mil?

have you asked the Assett or JS yet
Jesus says the current ask is $200M
THat's Prince Fielder money
F this game. Time to re-watch the 2006 natl. champ. game baby!
I have it streaming on horndudette's laptop

Just to keep it real.

It was just on the LHN
How the F do you miss that wrap for a tackle
well hell if everyone else is suffering might as well suffer too

ill hate myself tomorrow

Mayes loaded with lydocane and ready to go !
Man I think Bama is just a little bit more hungrier than LSU
Bama aggressive on the play calls

Saban saying screw it and going all out

Rumor has it

…that Greg Davis is calling that little dump pass to 17

More hungrieris a winning combo
10 passes out first 15 plays says a lot
Can we try to mirror this kind of play next yr
What is the TE position that they use?
must be some newfangled position that only the SEC is allowed to use
What head gear did Corso wear?
Tiger
I thought it was this

but he's so dumb

he said ROLL TIger

aw, give him a break
I hope our staff has the pen and paper out taking notes
Harsin has already designed a spread wishbone for us next year
Oh well, I couldn't sleep.

Here’s an awesome screencap of the game. Pretty much sums up everything so far.

She can afford tix
Hes got a wide open Smelley
Wide open smelly tight end
That's gonna affect AJ Mc's Heisman stats.
Now that throw felt familiar
so if Alabummer wins 3-0 does OSU get a split?
Play for the FG

Gotta trust Bama’s kicker after last game

Bama and their big boy trick plays
ok when Alabama runs a trick play its great playcalling

but when Texas does it its because we are weak and not physical……

He got a favorable spot on that one I think
What did they have it by a nose
Why didn't that guy extend the ball and fall forward

He could have easily had it. Looked like GD was forcing him so stay east/west

I can't believe Bama has to use trick plays to score.
Its called big boy football...the $EC is all bout big boy football
So, LSU clearly didn't review Saban tactics in National Championship games.

He came out risking everything against us in our Championship game.

but we actually stopped their fakes
"Don't end up in a roadside ditch"

“Get rid of cable.”

At least now we know one of 54b’s ad accounts.

Nice F'ing hit
On Sundays that hit is 15 yards for defensless WR
Is the slot smelley or is the tight end smelley
Oh I see what you did there...
Damn, I was obviously scanning too quickly.

+1

LSU O better get something together
lol bama kicker

it begins again

to be fair though that was a play made by LSU
Deja Vu
In NOLA

They call that Deja Voodoo

that looks familiar
Wow

Bama can’t kick FGs?

Get some air under that thing kid
Used the wrong club

Needs a new caddie

9-6 Tigers
my prediction
Siiiiiiiiiiiiiike
yawn
Good ST by LSU
Bama looks like the better team (again).

All they have to do is connect on 3 FGs and game over.

LSU has just about the worst offense.

that dr pepper commercial is better than the....other one
Let's have a real good time
have a real good time...
I thought it was a Bama commercial
i did too for a second

Both of these offenses stink!

After reading the comments

I made the right choice, Diner, drive-ins and dives on the food network. Have to find a way to get to Atlanta for some Redneck Sushi.

Guy Fieri

World’s biggest douche

he dresses like a 10 year old who got a gift card to Hot Topic
LSU is just steppin all over there dicks
Hopefully the Kicker just keeps doin a great job tonight for LSU
remember folks according to bleacher report

this LSU team is the best of all time even better than 05 Texas (LMAO!)

Bleacher report is worse than MSNBC

So just laugh at EVERYTHING they report.

according to one story TJ was the #1 WR in the nation
My point exactly

DBG is years ahead of TJ

I thought MIKE DAVIS was horrible
Yea that guy short armed it and he was all alone
yeah you gotta catch that shit before you start runnin down field
He was headed straight for the sideline he didn't want any of those BIG HITS
Like my friends when the bill comes

Gator arms

LSU needs to go vertical

Bama is going to blow up screens all day long

did LSU hire Greg Davis?
my exact comment on BC

obviously the film lied

They haven't gotten that deep into the playbook yet
So when do you think LSU will score

2nd half or before

My money says they'll need a trick play to score
those wimps with their trick plays
Bama is going to slowly start working toward the run

Now that they got LSU a little bit winded

Nice stop there
Does that chick know she has a dick on her head
I'm boycotting the game.

I’m watching Oprah’s network. What’s the score?

Your watchin. But if you want to know it's 3-0 Tide
The Pokes wuz robbed.

Nope. I’m not watching.

I’ll have to lurk here and check the score.

I hear you brotha
oh come on just torture yourself with us

btw 3-0 elephants

It's like a sickness for me.

I’m just addicted to College Football, regardless of who’s playing. I wish desperately to look away but I can’t.

Me too

It is like drinking day old warm beer right now.

3-0 mid 2nd Quarter.

Maybe 10 yards of O for LSU.

Terrible game.

me too dime

I aint watching that crap again. I love hard hitting defenses but they already played and the fact this game is happening again proves the BS in BcS.

Gaylynn left

Something about conference network re-alignment and Oprah acting like Texas with all her money

when did Alabama turn into Texas Tech?
I get so sick an tired of hearing Turdberger announcing these games
I think Bama is going to get a TD this game

They are pounding LSU, but McCarron needs to not force it.

probably on 1 of these drives
if they score a TD they can jut call the game right?
I think first to 10 wins
10....We could be here all night!
Watch the fake LSU
6-0 Bama. Game over.
That FG happened because...

The officials have forgotten what holding is…oh wait these are Big12 refs.

Yea

That was a brutal hold they missed

40 whats the story with Texas playing Cal at Dell Diamond this yr
agreed...very obvious
They haven't called anything but False Starts, I think.

Obviously Big XII refs.

I predict LSU scores
Tonight?

You’re a lunatic.

i predict they score too

in the season opener next year

saban

He is so bad sometimes. 3rd and 1 and you give it to Lacy. What the hell is bama thinking

Jefferson looks shaky

not good decision making on his part tonight

i think Gilbert could do better than him right now
Put in Case....
you Case people put in Ash!!!!!
I bet they wish Shipley was their QB right now
damn right

Shipley only needs one pass attempt to double the scoring in this game

Does Mustardburger stand up the whole game?
Bad snap once again
Lee needs to come in...

much more patient and a better game manager

I would agree
Bama is FORCING these mistakes, Kirk?

Delusional.

Touchdown Spotlight!

from 2010.

McCarron is going to get pick sixed on their next drive...they are getting too greedy on the passes...BTW,

What Texas H S did McCarron play for ?

the one in Mobile Alabama
He is so hard for one man.
1 timeout so far

mark that 2

the LSU players look like they have given up
Can't wait for the half time break down of this amazing first half
This was a 1-hour first half.

1 hour. That’s it.

thats what you get with 2 great defenses and big boy football
hey guys.......what time does the game start????

espn seems to be replaying the first game…….

and people think that this LSU team is better than this team?

Of course

The same people thought USC was better also.

oh the hate is so apparent in this pic
I like the pic in the back

The Texans are my NFL team. Just kills me that both Leinart and Cushing are there.

At least Cushing has put those steroids female hormones to good use.

only those who married their 1st cousins think that
this game sucks
LSU secondary really being played

Saban obviously changed the game plan to shorter passes to take advantage of the zone or expose them being too aggressive

And McCarron's doing a really good job of moving around

Avoiding what little pressure is coming his way.

Bama OL doing a really good job

shocked LSU isn’t getting more pressure…even without the few missed holdings, LSU getting minimal pressure

HE GOT THE HOLD DOWN OKAY

MVP MVP MVP

by that logic Cade McCrary should win the damn Heisman
best player on the team
When is the last time a Kicker was MVP of the National Championship??
You're watching it
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
So appropriate for this cluster F**k the BCS served up
Justified Season 3 promo was better than that first half.
This cannot be stressed enough.
Blazing saddles is on AMC
I've been watching a replay of the Cotton Bowl

KSU loses again.

I feel for you Furnace
I'm sure you could find a KSU-Texas game to watch. Thing is...which one to choose? Sigh...

Thanks. One of my favorite movies.

Mac McWhorter

any hear about he is joining penn state staff

LOL - This game is LUDICROUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
"You're watching #6"

Kill me now.

GG just had his 5 seconds of fame!
i HATE the SEC

like seriously i HATE them they are so damn…..insert random curse here

God, that was terrible!!!
with a education from the University of Alabama

you could one day own your own 7-11

It would have been fun to see Cowboy play these guys
Is the HSC on right now - need some excitement to view!
Nothing says Big Boy Football like team colored flowers
^^^^^internet points
Well, Herbie is comfortable in his own skin

fits that meme

That commercial was more than I ever needed to know about Herbie.

imagine Craig James doing that commercial

along with his five hooker friends!

Come on Furnace,

that’s insensitive, considering they’ve been dead for 28 years.

allegedly dead - of course, there's no proof of that
I will never buy Allstate insurance

too many hookers

Actuarial Hookers!
Hey Actuaries are people too... as are Hookers for that matter
i was talking about the hooker who was trolling for the RV

with the half time contest.

Actuary! What’s that!

Call Craig James....he can take care of that problem.
Michael Dyer will be a beast at Arkie St
LSU total yards: 43.

BIG BOY FOOTBALL

yea its definitly not bad offense
Texas had twice that against Cal!
Colt McCoy Curse!!
Feel bad for Maze even if I hate both these teams to the core.
Didn't see Colt crying...

just sayin’

Alabama fans told me they saw him crying

just goes to show you should never smoke crack

Cried under the bleachers. Was a tough blow.
I cried when I knew he wouldn't return!
I went and bought more food and alcohol at halftime when I knew he wasn't returning.
i literally broke a lamp

threw it into a wall

We should hang out
My gosh

That Half Time competition for the guy to win a bunch of stuff was LAME….talk about lack of interest

that was Bama's kicker in the first game

they brought in a ringer for this game

Honeybadger is a cover corner?

Just awful.

He's really LSU's third best DB
To be fair

The other two corners are NFL 1st round talents

Awesome - both of them
how is this game this bad
according to SEC fans its not

great Defense its definitly not bad offense

Honey Badger < Quandre or Carrington
Quandre the Giant would gut the honey-badger and turn him into a pimp azz hat which would be worn sideways
LSU getting absolutely no pressure.
and little coverage...need to play man instead of zone
lol Gundy is laughing his ass off

he knows if this stands OSU will get a split

MVP for sure....sigh
This is making me excited for next year.

I just hope we have a QB.

I hope we have a kicker
My worst fear next year is not having a kicker.
or a QB
Kicker worries me more surprisingly.
at least our QB is better than LSU's
Do we have a commit?
Preferred walk-on that Major was pushing I think.
any scoop on the walk-on?
Nick Rose

apparently can kick it to the back of the endzone

jordan*

my bad

is that allowed?
Nick Jordan from Coppell
Are touchdowns forbidden in the SEC?
Unfortunately, Arkie can score them
I want to play OU in the MNC
BCS: "NO YOU CAN'T PLAY DIVISIONAL FOES IN THE MNC!!!"
Saban said you can't play the MNC if you don't win your conference

What a liar

we should have played OU in 2008 for the Title

but NOOOOOO a team that doesnt win their conference cant play in the Title Game

anyone else think Alabama is throwing it to impress DGB?
By comparison Texas's offense looks incredible
my God Texas vs LSU would be 0-0 forever
Jefferson needs to come out
Boy, Jefferson is no VY
But he's on the best team ever...
lol brain fart!
Inadvertant fair catch?
Bama fans are still bombarding me with the 09 championship score

but they live in alabama

Remind them of this fact:
but they live in alabama
Just tell them 'Texas wins if McCoy stays in'.

Then watch their heads do a Linda Blair.

I always reply: 8-1-1

Which, of course, is Texas’ record vs. Alabama all-time.

That is so much easier

Than my explanation of how an offense built around a single player is doomed without that player.. Actually thats simple but Bama fans are a lot like aggies.

what number on herbstreet?
Where did this passing game come from?

Hell via Satan

"AJ spotted him,

but they couldn’t connect."

- BM

Score?

I’m still watching Oprah.

off topic: I see TGOD a lot on here....what does that mean???
Texas Gang or Die

Dubbed by the recruits.

you know the aggie recruits use that "Ag Swag" thing

but heres my question can a 6-6 team have swag? can a program with one title during the 1930s have swag?

lol wut?

I gotta admit

I am going to miss those idiots – just a little.

We can still laugh at 'em,

especially when they don’t go 10-2 as Beergut predicts.

he predicts 10-2 for next year?
Yeah, they recruited this guy for the O-Line,

but he just wants to twirl his baton.
The Ag Swag is in gear.

they're always good for comic relief
check it out lol

thir recruits are talking about the “Ag Swag Movement” its the funniest thing ive ever seen

Yeah, that option seems to be working

Do I read a hint of sarcasm?

The offensive approach is borderline mentally challenged.

It is the SEC. Did you expect anything more?

what do you mean borderline?
I don't think I have the right to call others as such.

Even so, I’m considering it.

What's worse than watching this game?

Watching this game in 3D. As an LSU fan.

well that was one of the most comical INTs ive seen this season..
where the hell was that going?
Big Boy Football......Hmmmmm
not bad offense at all
JJ thinks he's Jebow
I think Jefferson is done for the evening
Wow

That leg is not supposed to bend like that

thats nasty.....
That's the same knee he hurt earlier in the season

Probably not coming back in.

Jefferson is terrible

Lee should have never been taken out this year…

Jefferson is the worst fucking QNB ever in an NC game.

Worse even that McElroy.

they should find Rex Grossman
Worse even than Garrett Gilbert.
Yea GG at least threw TDs against Bama

The Jets are not going to be happy to see McElroy in the spring. He has just made his life a living he&%.

hahaha I thought the same thing
What happened?

McElroy gave an interview basically calling out Jet teammates. He may have been correct, but you don’t do that stuff publicly and certainly don’t do that as a rookie backup QB.

He is going to feel some pain in the spring.

Total ginger douchebag,

who is about to get a dose of reality, resulting in a career in either car sales or life insurance.

He was destined for one of those professions, no matter what happened.

wasnt he up for the rhodes scholarship or something?
In his own mind, maybe,

He has a degree in Marketing, and did not receive a Rhodes Scholarship.

I seem to recall he was eligible for it

maybe I have gone insane from the EPIC football being played right now. Is it possible to know you are insane?

He interviewed for it, but I never heard if he was one of the recipients. He didn’t get it or turned it down since he is with the Jets this season.

Les Miles will get eviscorated for tonight
Justified promo. Once again topping the game.

My goodness am I ever excited for that show to return.

Brent Musberger

It’s not irony.. it’s coincidence.

15-0 coming
Assuming they make it...
How in the world did you predict that ?
MISS, YOU SUCK KICKER!!!

That’s what this game has basically devolved to.

lol LSU fans booing Jefferson
They're great fans...when they're winning

They can get quite nasty when things aren’t going their way.

i think LSU has given up
They gave up before the game started.
point to you sir
Really? Jefferson again?

Great call. At least we put Major in with time enough to make up a deficit.

You know you're having a bad night

When your fans boo your undefeated team

Seriously though... who is calling this BS
GREG DAVIS!!!!!!
Has there even been a flag outside of like 2 false starts?
Horizontal passing versus smother corners....YES !!!!!!
10 yard sack?

So LSU has 0 yards now?

This game is an epic fail

LSU looks horrible and Miles puts Jefferson back in. Maybe it’s because Miles has no grass to eat?

306-59 yard advantage.

Allsome.

this stadium aint used to 12-0 games
It is

Just not since the Ditka years

as a Saints fan im offended by this disgusting offensive performance on Drews field
I was there on Saturday

This is the polar opposite of what I saw

im envious of you being being at that game
You are so young

This is like all the bad Saints-Falcons games from my childhood. Forced to watch them due to NFL regional coverage in the 70’s – before the NFL was allowed in Tampa, Charlotte and Nashville.

LSU needs to start a brawl about now....
LSU is done
they were done when it was 6-0
No TDs allowed!

Stop that shit now.

Getting shutout is embarrassing...

but in a way, I almost feel like losing 24-2 is worse.

funniest score ever
Crazy Picks De Hansen actually called a 15-2 Alabama win

and going into the 4th that actually seems plausible.

F this worthless game! I would love to see OSU throw vertical against these teams

How did # 90 not sack him ?
McCarron has done a really good job of avoiding negative plays all game
Reid face-rakes the receiver.
I predicted that 15 minutes ago
technically....it was 11 minutes ago.......
I actually predicted it 4 minutes before putting it on BON
nope, sorry......i only go by official times...lol
can these announcers get off Alabama and Saban's elephant hat?
Dime, do we really have to wait until Mack retires?

People start throwing stuff at me when I say I want Saban to follow Mack so I just keep quiet now.

Is that because they want Saban now?

Ummmm, no.

What is wrong with those people?

I’m a realist. Saban is a very good coach and an even better recruiter. Sure, he is slimy, but he is chameleon. He can adjust to whatever athletic department will pony up the big bucks. (I use the term puny up the bucks in respect to the old SW Conf and our friends in North Dallas.) If he knows that Bellmont won’t accept that behavior, he won’t do it.

I don’t know if he will ever leave Alabama, but if Dodds called, he would definitely answer the phone. Texas would be one of the few programs he would probably consider just for the money and prestige.

titillating

Like my new sig line? A very nice Frog let me borrow his words.

You must be reading my mind.

I was just admiring it. Really. Spooky. Really spooky.

Keeping Jefferson in reminds me of K State in 2010
Let's trade th LHN for Saban.

That’s about $200 million dollars worth.

Spoken like someone that doesn't have LHN
I know, right?

It’s not like I’m giving up anything. Just like trading my soul for Saban.

I wouldn’t trade my LHN for anything.

before the Alabama fans start with the greatest ever talk

no your team is not the best team ever

Alabama is so lucky

Colt gets injured to give them one, and then they get a rematch that they didn’t deserve. Irks the crap out of me.

karma will get them and im willing to bet karma's name is Johnathan Gray
They got their 3rd first down
#1 team in the nation has 55 yds passing and 10 yds rushing at the end of the third.

Horrible. Think the Cowboys would suck that hard?

i think the 05 Texas team would have scored 35 points by now
I think 2010 Texas could have put a FG on the board by this point.
Certain Gundy could have conjured up a field goal. LSU should be ashamed.

I mean like self impose a bowl ban next year for this debacle.

I think Jarrett Lee needs to come save the day!

And I remember seeing Lee as a freshman and thinking he was the worst college QB I’ve ever seen.

Beware the mad hatter ?? Did I just hear that ?
Are you watching Alice and Wonderland?
Musturdburger just said it !
After he said "nothing doing" and honey badger" about 35 times each. I had to mute.
you could have a drinking game based off the honey badger

but than you’d be in a coma and probably die…

and after watching this game

maybe that aint so bad…

Right. I'm just so glad I'm not an LSU fan. I would burn all my gear.
can't believe after all the good cfb this year......this is our championship...smh
the Big 12 Conference

where we score touchdowns and not field goals

Joking aside

I’m seriously hoping for a wild fourth quarter that makes me forget how ugly this has been.

seriously does this Alabama team even crack the top 10 of BCS Champions?
This defense does
but as a team as a whole

Texas 05
Bama 09
USC 04
OSU 02
Miami 01
FSU 99
Tenn 98
OU 2000
Auburn 2010

Those undefeateds alone are superior

and 2005 Texas stands above all National Champions
I believe so too

I’ll respect the opinion that 2001 MIami or 2004 USC is up there. I will NOT respect any bozo who thinks 2009 Alabama is the top one.

those are the only other 2 in the convo
or this Alabama team

or those morons who say 95 Nebraska

They're only morons...

…in the sense that that team wasn’t from the BCS era. But it was a damn good team, quite possibly better than any BCS-era team.

Ooohhh

I’d have to give it to Miami. 2005 Texas is a clear #2 though.

04 USC gave up its title

And 01 Miami didn’t beat an undefeated foe, much less an undefeated foe like USC.

It’s 2005 Texas and nobody else is even close IMO

Possibly

seeing as how there’s only 15 of them.

All time National Champs? Heavens no.

ONE OF THE GREAT DEFENSIVE PERFORMANCES OF ALL TIME!!!!
against one of the worst offenses of all time
wow...now that was a hit
Lollll Quandre tweets:
@qdiggs28
Im tired of this commentator saying “honey badger” i think even Tyrann would get tired of him.
Quandre has played better this year than Tyrann has this game
Agreed.

Honey badger got brutalized tonight. They picked on him all night.

LSU wanted their rematch.

I hope you get what you want, and I hope you want what you got.

Lol

Musberger making a big deal about him almost crossing the 50…

FIRST DOWN!!!!!!!!!!! LSU!!!!!!!!!!!

Yawn.

is that #2?
No but they are dropping a deuce on national TV.
somehow im not that worried about losing Mario Edwards to LSU
I think that was the 5th. More than one per quarter!
my daughter calls it "chunking a deuce"
Make me laugh.
Oops. Made me laugh.
Jefferson doesn't want it bad enough
all the option plays by lsu have been pitiful...

bama can’t be this good defensively…

Um, wasn't that a defensive hold?
i hope Mario Edwards is watching this

and i hope DGB isnt seeing Alabama throw it

I hope he is.

Nothing has gone past 5 yards.

but he might think the Alabama QB is good
I thought I would be happy to see this game suck ass....

INSTEAD I AM JUST ANGRY HOW MUCH MORE PATHETIC CAN IT GET

This is just sad.
game. for good
Even normal teams this year have managed to put 9 on Bama.

LSU cant be this bad.

my God and SEC fans call me stupid for saying this game was terrible in November

and for saying it wasnt good defense just horrid offense

unfortunately...the fact that it might just be a shutout will make that claim worse...
i stand by my statement

both offenses suck

jordan jefferson holds the ball just as long as tebow before a throw..it's ludicrous..
The party's over.

Thanks, Dandy.

Still think these were the best two teams

Just don’t think they should ever be allowed to play each other on TV again

Discussion will begin....

Oklahoma State should not and wont be the AP National Champion. The loss to iowa state looks worse and worse

BS OSU should get the AP Title

this game shows how aweful both offenses are

Personally

I am one of the few who think they got the title game right as messed up as it is to have 2 teams from the same division. At the end of the day I think Bama and LSU are the 2 best teams in the country.

OSU absolutely deserves a part of the title.
Has there ever been a champion

who has failed to score a single touchdown on the runner up, TWICE?

scratch that

in related news this game still blows goats

Oh my goodness

That was one heck of a slow run.

he was Ryan Tannehill fast
Is the kicker really the player of the game?

SEC football, it’s FANTASTIC

A TTOOOOUUUUUCHDOOOOOWOOWWWWWN
HOLY SWEET BABY JESUS A TD!!!!!
Finally broken

Just couldn’t keep holding on. Not like it would have mattered because their offense can’t score.

The biggest problem with this game

is in 50 years someone will think that alabama scored more than 1 TD in this game

ps thanks kirk for stealing my thoughts. asshole.
my God Alabama has a stupid sounding fight song

the tune is even dumber than the aggie battle hymn

I muted. Do they play spoons and moonshine bottle?
Bend a saw blade?
i think they are killing a moose
Now just maintain the shutout to secure the utter LSU fail. No points in trash time.
Slive will put a call in to whoever he puts his calls into and

tell them to let tigger score 10 points – embelish the myth.

Slive is an enemy of the free world

just saying

Slimey ryhmes with Slive
News to me.

Claiming the injury to Colt was great defense. FUck that shit.

did they just call beating Texas in 2009 a great defensive performance?
yep...morons
why dont they just go off and marry saban in vegas?
Yea GG threw for 2 TDs
Not beating Texas, just knocking Colt out of the game.

I got fucking pissed.

that classless bag of hot air

God i hate him!

How funny is that score ticker?

Allstate BCS National Championship Game
1 LSU 0

As in zero points. Nothing. Pathetic and sad.

I'm left wondering what Jefferson could have done besides tear both ACLs to get Lee in this game.
wondering the same thing

How did Lee NOT get a shot. I even saw him put his helmet on

Musberger must be stopped
Yes - Musberger declares

“The AP cannot vote for a split title.” So it must be so!

Good thing

I bought the under on this game

Ugh

I do not want to hear the Stupid SEC chants anytime soon.

I do not not know which will be worse:

1)SEC is the Best EVAH
2)BCS must die. PLAYOFFSSSSSS

congratulations to Oklahoma State 2011 National Champions!
Interested in hearing your rationale behind this. Friendly debate

I would vote LSU/BAMA- split
OSU -3

Rationale: LSU’s wins over top 25 teams. Losse to Bama was better than ISU. LSUs non conf wins.

LSU and Alabama split their series. Alabama gets the coaches Trophy and OSU should get the AP Trophy
seems right - but unfair to LSU

but that’s ok because the sec sucks.

Really, this whole thing was so unfair to LSU, who really had one of the more impressive regular seasons in many years.

LSU got shutout

need i say more?

but

Is losing to #2 Alabama worse than losing to 6-7 ISU…?

let me repeat

shutout as in scored not once held to under 100 yards of total offense…..yes its worse. and OSU had a plane crash that day

Oh, I agree Okie Lite should have been in this game 100%

I just think it unfair that LSU had to play Bama again. Travesty and a farce. And how the pundits ignored the plane crash was a travesty. W/out that crash, Cowboy doesn’t lose.

agree 100%

and yes it was unfair to LSU. if Oklahoma States name was University of Oklahoma they would be in it.

Well, who else?

How do you rank a team that didn’t win its own conference #1? How do you rank a team that lost its bowl appearance #1?

The possible choices left in the top 10, when you filter out the teams that lost either their conference or their bowl appearance, are OSU and Oregon. OSU won the highest-ranked conference and had only one loss; Oregon won a weaker conference and had two losses. OSU clearly trumps Oregon.

This game makes me feel as cheated as when we paid for the PPV fight when

Tyson got hungry for ear.

Just awful.

terrible game my gut hurts
thats becasue you took a drink every time Musberger said "honey badger."
Given the matchup,

I love the result.

How much did you win - if you don't mind me asking
My wife is from BR.

When I met her there in 1982, her family ragged on me about Texas; claimed Texas was afraid to play LSU after losing to LSU in the Cotton Bowl in the early 1960s; chanted “Tiger Bait, Tiger Bait” until they were hoarse; gloated ad infinitum about their NCs and about how they have more crystal trophies than Texas (even though one represents only half a championship and Texas has more NCs); and have gone on and on and on in juvenile fashion about how great they are, how they dominate, how they own Alabama, how their conference is superior, and how Texas sucks. I don’t have to listen to that shit for awhile now. That’s what I won.

Oh.

And I forgot about what Ryan Perrilloux, and through him LSU, did to Texas in 2006.

I am in the same boat, wife from BR, and every in-law went to LSU. They don't like to talk about 2002 cotton bowl though.
hehehehe

Both my daughters go to LSU, also. The younger, although a Tiger fan, is not obnoxious about it, and the other is still a Horn fan first and foremost.

I bet OSU, Stanford, or Oregon are...

screaming that these two played in the title game…their offenses would have lit up these teams.

We watched Lord of the Rings instead of this game

Every time that little weird guy hacked-up " GOLLUM, GOLLUM" it reminded me that it was on the other channel.

the Big 12 DOES NOT send its congratulations
UofH would have beaten either team!
Southern Miss - Nashunal Champs!!!
Says it all:
RT @DanieLewisUTCBS: Stat for you: Georgia Southern gained more yards against Alabama in one game (341) than LSU did in two (331)
Wow. And how many points?
21 I think.
yep 45-21
Did they have a month to prepare? Nope.
In fairness

Not one starter played past the first quarter, and one TD was on a kickoff return.

Fair enough.

Counterpoint: This game sucked ass

But they play Citadel, Tusculum, Elon, Furman, Wofford, Old Dominion and Maine.
All better than Ole Miss in 2011
One more for you:
@BryanDFischer
Ted Ginn Jr.’s opening kick return vs. Florida gained more yards and points than LSU did this entire game.
thats just sad
Garret Gilbert

Threw more touchdown passes in relief of Colt McCoy than both Jefferson and McCarron did combined.

Boycotting has its privileges

Glad I didn’t tune in to that nonsense. What a joke.

Glad you had the strength. I broke down and watched. And now feel used and weak willed.
I'm covered in a thick shame-glaze at the moment.
Damn right

I watched Brodus Clay Debut wearing a Red 1980s Track suit and dancers on WWE…

there's the biggest kicker of all Les just said it all

“they are Conference Champions and Western Division Champions” ALABAMA WASNT EITHER OF THOSE!!!!!!!

I am glad I watched the game

Apparently a minority opinion around here. It was the National Championship game of the sport I love – why would I not watch? I thought Alabama’s defense played awesomely. LSU was a deer-in-the-headlights the whole game – totally outmatched. Alabama deserves the title most definitely, although I wouldn’t mind seeing a +1 game against Oklahoma State (who certainly should have had a shot at the title if not shooting themselves in the foot with that one loss). Can’t wait until next season begins. Hook ’em!

p.s. Go Texans! Beat the Ravens!

The most exciting BCSCG was when UT beat USC.

I wish Colt hadn’t gotten injured. But UT can’t rely on one player, and ultimately he would have endured his worst nightmare since Nebraska.

This was a defensive chessmatch that the ADD generation can’t understand. OU and OSU would have gotten killed, giving up 40 points and may scoring 14 if either had made it—which they didn’t because they choked.

Mack Brown has UT headed in the right direction, playing real football.

A nightmare which he won, BTW
ultimately he would have endured his worst nightmare since Nebraska

It also would have ultimately been his best game since Nebraska.

It also would have ultimately been his most mediocre game since Nebraska.

What no honest fan can say for sure is how the game would have played out differently had Texas’ most valuable player not been knocked out on the fifth play from scrimmage.

I agree.

I give the edge to Bama for their running game and run defense. But GMac had a tough time passing the ball or staying upright.

I'm on edge,

wondering how AJ Mc will add to his rockin’ Bama Boy chest tat:

Damn....

she’s got a messed up face.

THE MOVIE RED TAILS INSPIRED THIS WIN

Great plug there, Coach Saban.

I just remembered this was happening tonight.

Guess I didn’t miss much. Just Bama’s 38th MNC.

Just woke up...

…not having watched a minute of the game last night or who even won.

All I see is that the champion of the SEC was completely disgraced last night by a team which didn’t even win its own division.

The SEC should be ashamed of itself, offering up such an unworthy, Ohio State-like champion. Never again!

If you want a playoff

I just got back from New Orleans after watching the Tide win another national championship. If you want a playoff, like the SEC tried to do before, you need to tell your Commissioner to vote for it. Also, boycott the PAC-12, B1G and the Rose Bowl. They PAC-12 and B1G are the ones against a playoff.

SEC, SEC, SEC
