Bama missed two open TD passes, not counting the Maze/INT/Reid.

we were lucky.

LSU better be able to drive for 80 yards a couple of times, because I expect that TR & co. will do exactly that.

This...Bama drove the ball...sure a few penalties helped..but I'm not underestimating tr's ability....jj is going to have be accurate to win this game...Lee didn't look bad until the picks..he hit a few good passes...I look for saban to take away the option game..he said they had missed assignments

LSU missed to TD's also, 1 inside the 5 and another inside the 15, not counting the OT TD.

Bama better have the crap in order are Ware/Ford/Hillard and Co. are going exactly that.

Shepard fell down with nothing but air between him and the goal line. Randle got both hands on a TD pass he would normally haul in. 'Bama got one sniff of the red zone and now you think they'll drive the length of the field multiple times. Amazing! 'Bama was lucky Lee had an off night and the blatant late hit on him was not called. LSU will win going away this time around.

I agree. And I expect Bama's revenge red@ss(even if both teams playing for BCS Title..they're kids after all), to stake them once again to the early lead.

As LSU, in the Bama, Ark, and UGA games, have reverted back to the form of the 2007 LSU team, whom was notorious in falling behind early on weekly.

A repeat of the Bama game where LSU sidestepped big trouble early on, or the Hog & Dawg 1st qtr efforts, may prove deadly on Jan-9th..

Gotta be ready to go from the first whistle!
