Hello friends!
This week Alabama has a chance to sow up the SEC west title and punch their ticket for Atlanta, but standing in their way are the Bayou Bengals of LSU.
So let the fireworks begin!
In the 1st half, this was truly an old fashioned SEC game. The defenses got out there and knocked the snot out of each other. And while watching the game, from Alabama’s point of view, it was like Nick Saban was going out of his way to please the commentators and sports writers by having Greg McElroy throw the ball all over the field. For the most part, Greg did a good job with the exception of right before 1/2 time. Alabama down 7-3 and driving for a possible go-ahead TD, McElroy threw an interception. I thought Nick Saban was going to kill him.
Alabama’s running game was not up to snuff in the first half. LSU was all over Mark Ingram.
Ok America! I know you don’t know who this good looking fella is….
This is my father in law, Ronnie. Just to tell you a little about him, he is a good ole’ boy from Lincolnton, GA and a Bulldog fan. So at 1/2 time, he called me on the phone and wanted to know if I had a crying towel out and I told him no because I was not worried.
Now back to the game…..
The 2nd half Alabama came out and played football Alabama style. In other words, it turned into the Mark Ingram show….
Although Ingram didn’t score a TD this week, he did account for 144yds on the ground. I don’t know of any coach in the country that wouldn’t be willing to take that!
LSU countered with Charles Scott who later in the game broke his collar bone and was lost for the season. Bad luck for the Tigers. On top of that, Jordan Jefferson also left the game with what was described as a sprained ankle. That left the Tigers missing a few teeth!
LSU did manage to score a TD and try a two pt conversion but it was no good.
Making the total pts for LSU 15. But I guess the biggest play of the game was when McElroy hit Julio Jones for a 73yd TD pass, sealing the Tigers fate (24-15).
In closing, today’s game was good if you were an Alabama fan and bad if you were a Tiger because now all of the newspaper people can shut the H@LL up……
Alabama is
SEC west
Champs!!!
But everybody still thinks Florida is going to beat us!
Good night!
See ya next week!
Roll Tide!
