Ooops!

I erroneously said: "This game will not depend upon field goals."

In reality, Alabama place kicker Jordan Shelley made five of his seven attempts (one got blocked and one was wide right) and it looked like that was all the scoring there was going to be until Trent Richardson bounced outside and scampered 34 yards with 4:36 remaining in the game for the lone touchdown.

I was going to skip watching this game but got caught up in the overwhelming defense that Alabama played. Swarmed under, one might say, like the LSU offense. It was an impressive team performance the likes of which one just has to admire. To give up just 92 yards net offense...amazing!

And for a team (Alabama) to commit just one penalty. Off sides on a fourth and 14 play. In the final two minutes of the game. That too is amazing.
