    Watched the highlights on the LSU game, and that last pass was the game saver. Too close a shave for you?

    That game caused a great deal of internal turmoil for me. Being a native of Baton Rouge, I have always been a supporter of and a fan of LSU. Living on the border of Georgia and Alabama, I'm surrounded by 'Bama fans and unless they're playing LSU, I am an Alabama fan. I personally feel Alabama is the best team in the country this year and am really pulling for them to remain unbeaten, especially within the SEC. Either way the game ended I would have been happy. The fact that it was close made it easier either way!!

    It was a close run affair and we were already resigned to what we thought was to be our fate. I'm glad the ball players showed more determination.

    Bama played ragged all the way around and the LSU QB looked real good, apparently better than he has all season.

    That game was tense! I went to undergraduate school at Alabama, even tutored players for Bear Bryant, graduate school at Georgia, then taught at LSU and ended up teaching at Auburn, I can usually find someone to support !! LOL

    I have a friend who finished four years of undergraduate studies there and is still a strong Alabama fan.
