Rewatching last years game.

People were pretty accurate in suggesting that Hurts wouldn't beat you from the pocket...and that running the ball was going to be very tough.

Last year people were calling them the greatest team ever. College pundits said they had the greatest defense of all time by a wide margin with a young Cam Newton at QB.

So the difference in this years game would be from the Tigers?

Also the fact that it’s being played in t-town.

Last year was one helluva game, guess I’m just looking for hopes that we can make it that same type of game.

Trying to remember if they were as highly regarded last year as they are this...

Nope.

I remember Elting got rocked on the goal line by a freshman lb.

Obviously LSU never pushed it into the endzone.

IMO, our offensive game plan went overboard trying to protect Etling. Granted,Alabama's defense was setting records for scoring.But we were just too timid on offense.

I remember hearing this alot last year after the game. Coach was heavily criticized by some national pundits for being too conservative. But, the game was tied 0-0 in the 4th. We definitely had a chance to win.

They were rated way higher last year than this year. Bottom line. They were being touted as best defense in history of college football. Quit living in the present

What I recall is that Hurts scooted in for a TD late in the game and there was blatant holding by 3 Gump players on that specific play. I'm not saying that every single hold should be called. But when its such a close game and the specific hold(s) absolutely effect the play; then the refs should be looking for such things. It was ridiculous. Take that TD away and who know what the outcome might have been. Our Defense was cooked by that point, but the holding was pathetic.
