Great game by both teams - Page 2

Thanks, it was a great game and went pretty much as expected.
While the almost interception was close, you guys had some go your way as well. The safety in the ez was one. A massive hold/block in the back on one of our lineman on your scoring drive as another.
I thought the refs pretty much let both sides play. Most of the penalties on both sides came on offensive gaffes it seemed to me.

Good luck the rest of the way. Glad this one is over.

Great game by both teams.

- I think Paterson had the pick.
- No way the hit on Fitzgerald was a mild "running into the kicker". Not when he's spun around by his extended leg. He was roughed.

Doesn't matter now.

Hope none of the LSU players' injuries were serious.

LSU has to be the best two-loss team in America. Would any top-ten team - including Florida or Bama - want to play 'em again? Nah.

I agree on both counts.

IMHO, LSU is by far the best we have played this year. Good Luck to the LSU team and fans the rest of the season.

I hate it, but a lot of people are going to say that we got some home cooking tonight. If they look at the stats, they will see why we won, but the officials did help us out a bit...

Good luck the rest of the way, FH. I'll just note that LSU had some really great no-calls go their way, also. On the non-INT, the replay guys have a couple of camera angles available to them which the broadcast guys don't. I suspect it showed that PP's right foot was partially outside the FOP. Anyway, doesn't matter and I don't think it decided the game by any means. The stats will tell the story...

	Wanna say good game by Bama...specifically Ingram. Obviously, I've got my complaints about the striped ones...and wish we hadn't had so many guys go down. Peterson picked that one...with BOTH feet in. I'm sure Les will have a fine coming his way this week. I think this game answered some questions for LSU fans. Particularly, why Jordan Jefferson is QB instead of Lee. (yes, believe it or not, some were in Lee's camp ) Not the crushing you expected though, GCTider. Good game, as expected.

Tough game. LSU gave Alabama all they wanted. Never seen so many injuries, although they seemed mostly to be cramps. Good luck the rest of the way.

It was a great game and hope all of your walking wounded get well quick. It's been a long time since I've seen that much attrition on one team in a single game. They left everything they had on the field.

As for the interception, I personally thought they missed that one too. But they missed others to our detriment. So it all washes out. Besides nothing will ever make up for that missed end zone interference call in Redstick a few years ago.

I thought there were two critical bad calls in the game and each team got one. LSU got a safety due to a bad spot on the punt and Bama got one on Patterson's INT.

Admittedly, I'm biased but I just don't think LSU drives 65 yards for a TD with a backup QB and RB and no timeouts.

Nevertheless, LSU came to play ball and I thought they played really well and really tough.

Does LUS want a rematch, I think not. Thanks to the S&C staff! Now let's go for Miss State. RTR

Last year was the same way.

Well said. I agree. LSU did not lose the game on that call.

Agreed - it looked like a pick to me, but I think our D forces them to turn the ball over on downs either way.

What the heck was GMac thinking on that play? Hindsight is 20/20, but I am shocked that we had an empty backfield on that play, and even more shocked that GMac didn't just tuck it and take the no-gain.
