I'd say that oddsmaker, based on the article's sampling of his logic, needs to prepare for a career change.

This. "Uh, even though LSU won they didn't. Even though Les has a better record vs. Saban, he doesn't.

“I have a hard time saying that LSU won that game,” Patterson said, despite the minor point of reality contradicting him. “I would argue that they did lose the game statistically against Alabama when they played in November. I’m a Michigan alum and it’s real easy for me to say Virginia Tech beat Michigan in the Sugar Bowl.”

I actually saw Richardson wearing down your defense late in the game.

one run equals "wearing down the defense"?

Not sure about that but I am sure he got 180 yrds of offense. TR wore LSU out Nov5 and will do it again Monday.

got stuffed in the backfield multiple times by defensive backs, he was tired and scared, you could see it, thats why he choked in overtime

trent can have 200 yards against the new U, thats all they have, a one man team will never beat these Tigers

He makes a few solid points, a few crappy ones, but the biggest factor is that he leaves out LSU missed opportunities as if there weren't any...

I agree Bama could have scored 16+ points that game with a few mistakes erased, but so could LSU.

We would easily be #1 defensively if we had played North Texas and Kent State instead of Oregon and West Virginia, Bama's stats mean nothing, that's why they got beat at home.

Ok, that's the 24 yard run. There was also a decent catch on third and long that didn't pick up a first. Where are the highlights of the 11 total yards on his 9 other touches in the 4th?

His last 5 carries went for -5 net yards....

Check your BS.

42 yards positive and 9 neg by my count. In 1 qtr, or 33 all together. Mulitply by 4 and that 132 yards. That's better than the 89 he ended up with. Thanks, you just made my point.

You're finally speechless huh? Those runs seem to have tapered off at the end when he was wearing that defense down.
