re: Jefferson led a GREAT drive.

You're right. It was very evident that their was a lot of heavy hitting. I don't think Lee was prepared for that.

LSU gets a punt run back to the 38 but there is a penalty on TM7. Ball gets put back to the 5 yard line. Jefferson comes in and is leading the drive down the field as the ball is now on the 45 yd line with 1:24 on the clock. Drive stalls.

TM7 cost us some great field position. He almost cost us the opportunity to win. But you can't fault him. He was just playing aggressive. It is also obvious that Bama players was trying to get into Honey Badgers head. Bama then runs out the clock as we head into overtime.

I don't think that's why it happened. TM7 hasn't overreacted to anything like that this season. I don't think he starts here. I think he was worried Dre was going to level OBJ and possibly cause a fumble. So he tried to make a play. He ended up misjudging the situation and made a bad play. You live with it.

Hilliard up the middle for 1. Ware up the middle for 1 and puts the ball in the middle. Alleman is trotting onto the field. He lines up and Saban calls time out.

Alleman lines up for the kick again. He swings and boots it through the upright. TIGERS WIN. TIGERS WIN. Miles beats Saban 2 years in a row and with Jefferson as his QB. The defense proved it is great and our offense can move the ball, but unfortunately tonight they went up against BAMA. After watching this game again, it is obvious to me that a Stanford or Okie state would be no match for LSU. However, Bama would be a stern test if their was a rematch.

Their should be NO rematch. Bama would sit at home while LSU is playing an SEC championship game. That would be unjust. LSU beat Bama on their home field, in front of their fans and LSU beat them. That's the bottom line. Bama did not give the game away as both teams lost opportunities. LSU vs Stanford would be the BEST game. Luck would get crushed and our offense would gave a field day as Stanfords defense is not Bamas defense. GO TiGERS.

Saban in the post game interview was Saban. I will only say that WE are very lucky and blessed to have Les Miles.

In Saban's defense he would have had to get down to the other 25-30 yard line to have an attempt at a FG. That was 45-50 yards away in 50 seconds when his offense hadn't gained 100 yards the entire 2nd half and with our defensive line teeing off against McCarron.

I think he probably made the right decision.

Considering Saban supposedly recruits the best, but his kickers leave a lot to be desired. This game was truly a great classic. Final - LSU 9 Alabama 6.
