LSU escapes Alabama in OT, 9-6



L.S.U. is the best team in the country. The Tigers beat the Alabama Crimson Tide 9-6 in overtime at Alabama's home field. The Tigers now  take full control in the SEC and the B.C.S. standings.


Yes, Trent Richardson is a beast, but so is the LSU secondary. The score is low. Boring. The game however was not. LSU should have won 12-6, but Michael Ford stepped out of bounds at the seven-yard line on an option play from a last-split-second delivery from Jordan Jefferson.

L.S.U. ran two plays from the seven, putting the ball in the middle of the field, before calling on Alleman. He drilled it, pushing the Tigers to 9-0 and putting them firmly in the driver’s seat for a berth in the national title game.

Alabama is certainly kicking itself (no pun intended) for the three missed field goals and one blocked one.. They had one blown opportunity after another yet in his press conference Bama coach Nick Saban handled it like a stand-up guy. "Nobody is to blame. We had some missed opportunities."

Yes, you did, Nick.

L.S.U. just outlasted the Tide. They couldn't really do much with the Tide. LSU couldn’t move the ball, not consistently. The Tigers had tackling issues in the second half,, where Richardson started to gash them. The Tigers even survived a surprisingly poor punt by Brad Wing.

But, the Tigers are on top of college football. WE are NO. 1.
