Agreed.
Not a great defensive showing

Both Delpit and Trevon Diggs looked like absolute garbage, I wonder if this performance will hurt their stock a couple rounds
Wow what a game  
dpinzow : 11/9/2019 7:30 pm : link
LSU has to go to #1 and stay there until they lose. I know Ohio St has dominated but LSU has beaten 4 teams that were in the top 10 when they played them
LSU was the better team...  
bw in dc : 11/9/2019 7:36 pm : link
and if not for some very odd coverage schemes on D, LSU probably wins more comfortably.

Watching these Saban defenses get ripped apart in these big games against spread offenses continues to be a major, major problem for him...

LSU will probably move to #1 bc of opponents. But OSU is, unlike yrs past, looking very strong

the LSU defensive coordinator should be under fire for that horrible defensive call late in the game. WTF was that?

Will get a freebie into the playoff now. Lose the one real game they play all season, skip the SEC title game, and then get in the playoff anyway because they’re Bama. Tried and true formula for them.

They are going to need a lot of help to make that happen this team. Having almost 50 laid on the them at home is not the sign of a playoff worthy team...
Tune into UGA MIZZOU

And watch Thomas. Look how high he plays and how slow his feet look.

I’d be nervous taking him as the LT of the future. Could be Greg Robinson part 2.

How about earlier in the game on the other long TD when the idiot coaches on the LSU sideline yelled some play call change right before the snap to the corner and distracted him while the WR blew past him to get wide open.

Yeah, ‘Bama lucks into all those National Titles. Please, you may not like them, and I get that, but don’t try to say they haven’t earned their titles.
They win them because they’re usually the best team.
46 points allowed by Alabama  
dpinzow : 11/10/2019 6:34 am : link
--the most points allowed by a Saban coached team in the SEC
--the highest # of points allowed by Alabama at home in a non-OT game in 50 years

I think if Oregon wins out, they've got to have the best shot. Close Early season loss against an SEC team, undefeated in their league, has to be the way to go IMO.
Alabama LSU  
Lines of Scrimmage : 11/10/2019 7:04 am : link
was a good game. LSU has a really good team.

Tua's phantom fumble was a big momentum killer early. For those killing Alabama D they did lose two LB's in pre-season one of which is a major star. Two Freshman starting.

The expectations on Bama are unreal imo. How many coaches, coordinators has Saban had to replace? How many players to the draft every year? It takes a toll yet they still remain at or near the top every year.

The had a graphic of how they could still get in which seems plausible. Two losses for either Penn State/Ohio State and a two loss Pac 12 team. Both seem possible.

Don't sleep on Clemson...they are starting to dominate.

Yes Clemson and Georgia coming back  
Jimmy Googs : 11/10/2019 7:14 am : link
into picture. Defenses on both teams heating up.

Georgia plays Auburn next week at Auburn.
Really fun game lived up to the hype  
Jim in Forest Hills : 11/10/2019 7:15 am : link
So many nfl players in that game I think half the crowd were pro agents cheering.
BTW - while I loved to see Bama take it on the chin yesterday  
Jimmy Googs : 11/10/2019 7:17 am : link
nothing but respect for Tua to gut it out in that performance.

And the only thing on his mind after such a tough loss that he did everything he could to the very end with that high ankle sprain is congratulate LSU players at midfield.

class act there...

The posters point wasn’t about past titles. It’s about this years team which if they go 11-1 will have had one quality win all season (Auburn) and hasn’t passed it’s usual eye test this year either.

It’s happened before where Alabama misses its conference title game and gets in anyway.

Hopefully this year it’s : LSU, Clemson, Ohio state and Georgia or Oklahoma.... but odds are LSU will beat Georgia and Oklahoma isn’t that good and might lose a vote to bama anyway, so bama probably still gets in despite 8 wins against 4 creampuffs, arkansas, Tennessee, and the Mississippi’s
Yes Bama needed at least one difficult non-conference  
Jimmy Googs : 11/10/2019 7:37 am : link
game but its not there. Hopefully Auburn does them in for a second loss so there is no question.

And not for nothing...Dawgs over LSU

Hmmm. Not seeing Georgia over LSU. Would love it, but they don’t have enough offense to hang with LSU. IMO.
Moreso from a UGA fan perspective than anything else  
Jimmy Googs : 11/10/2019 9:02 am : link
but they are playing very well on defense and just need some of their wideouts to stop getting hurt...
Georgia won’t miss as many tackles...  
bw in dc : 11/10/2019 9:24 am : link
as Bama did yesterday. I rewatched yesterday’s game and it was stunning how poorly Bama tackled. It was actually embarrassing for a Saban team, especially at home. Give LSU some credit, but Bama were unwitting accomplices.

I don’t count Georgia out. They have the ability to play good ball control against a suspect LSU D. And just as many athletes...
Georgia still has to play Auburn

It could still end up being Florida in SEC championship.
