This guy! He's a far cry from what he was the last time he was in in Death Valley. Glad he's grown as a leader!

I. LOVE. BLAKE. SIMS.

Blake isn't the natural born leader like some we've had in the past but I think maybe he works harder than any to be one.

He has had 5 years to work harder than any of the other quarterbacks on the team.

I am tickled, surprised and feel very lucky and blessed we won the game. I am still at a loss of how a QB can look so comfortable and in control at home, but when you put him on the road in a hostile environment he can look confused and lost. I am glad of his god given athletic ability and thank the man upstairs he made first down with his legs on 3rd down in OT.

Oh an while I am saying thanks, thank CLK for ( fill in the blank). If it had not been for the Defense last nite we would have been taken to the wood shed. Kudos to Kirby Smart. Defense wins national championships. If we win the MNC this year , it wil be because of our defense.

Roll Tide and its better to be lucky than pretty.

It's tough being in Baton Rouge on a Saturday night, let alone in front of Millions of people on National TV. He did very well a couple of weeks ago on the road. My hat is off to him on that last drive.

Not trying to take away from what Blake said, but what history was made?

Well none if we don't win out. But if we do, they will all look back to this game. Plus years down the road, when these two teams play, highlights from this game will be shown.

Yea I think I read wrong or misunderstood. He was just talking about winning the game..

Corny cliches don't have to make sense. They just have to work.

Blake Blake Blake Blake!!!!!

Re: Blake Sims tells the guys in the huddle "We Can Make History" on the last drive!

At this point in the season, I wish the fan base would show Blake just a fraction of the loyalty he's shown towards the program. I think he's earned it.

Lucky? Luck had nothing to do with winning this game.

Yeah. He's our QB whether fans like it or not. Until our staff thinks that the alternative is better, that's the way it is!

Alabama Crimson Tide History! We won and it's what, 4 in a row? If it had been a loss it would have been bad history. If we had lost, we would be out of the Playoffs.

Let's make some more history this week. Hopefully, that history will not be made in the last 50 seconds of the game.

History could be how many seconds (47) it took to tie LSU so that we could go on and win it.

Two years ago didn't it take 48 seconds to drive down the field and win on that screen pass to T. J. Yeldon. So, history was made. It took one (1) less second to score this time.

jmho, but this game goes down in crimson tide lore with the kick, etc.

we fumble in a tied game on our own 5 yard line with 1:30 or so to go, hold the who's (who are now a huge rival) to a fg, drive the field in 50 secs with no time outs to tie the game, then absolutely kill it in ot to leave no doubts about the outcome.

you cant write a better script for our history

Reminds me of our OT loss to Georgia, but flipped.

Amen brother, AMEN!

Re: Blake Sims tells the guys in the huddle "We Can Make History" on the last drive!

Blake has quickly become one of my favorite players all-time. No he didn't have his best game last night but he owned that in post game comments.

He also led one of the best Clutch Ice Water Drives we've ever seen. That was up there with Gmac vs Aubie '09 and AJ vs LSU '12. That was also a textbook TD throw to White in OT on the pick/rub route.

I'll also say that even though he wasn't sharp the WR's did him no favors with dropped passes all night and CLK did him no favors with low % throws.

In the end he proved his continual leadership and made plays with his legs and arm and kept the team focused and believing. Most important believing... Something a lot of us gave up on after the fumble...myself included.

We couldn't wish for a better guy than #6 this year. This is his team...this bunch is a brotherhood.

i was at that game. it was my wife's first (and only, so far) game, and to this day, it is, regardless of the outcome, one of the better games i have watched in person.
