Think LSU will copy UT strategy of 8-9 in the box knowing they have the athletes and depth to keep up?

i think our 3rd quarter play calling was done to show them what could happen if they do

Trent is our main weapon--LSU and Auburn are the only threats remaining on our reg season schedule and they will BOTH sell out including their souls to the devil himself to stop him. UT did that tonight, and instead died by a thousand cuts--either way, our O is very good. I'm just saying the only casualty of the strategy by our opponents is Trent, even though he may be a finalist, will probably not win the heisman and will certainly not be a a ESPN/media favorite.

Great result! TR is still a Heisman favorite. Regardless of tonight's result, he will be judged by our game against LSU and SECCG.

True.

FWIW, Russell Wilson might be out of the race now...2 INTs and a losing effort.

Hope Lacy and CK get healed up over the next two weeks.

The "3rd Saturday in October" (even when it isn't) always delivers - another great reason this matchup has to endure despite the conference expansion.

Great win with no injuries

Any word on Cyrus? He looked hurt

At least until Coach Saban decides to stick to riding pontoon boats

...and because Colt McCoy laid an egg in the Big 12 Championship game.

Got his eggs scrambled maybe ...

Agree....great rivalries make college football great.

Great win! A victory over Tennessee, no matter the records, is always sweet! IMO, UT sold out to stop Trent at all costs, and in the process took him out of serious heismann consideration(barring a herculean yardage effort against LSU AND the barn). Right now I think we beat LSU and we SHOULD win the iron bowl.

Enjoy the week off, guys--You've earned it!

not so fast my friend........even Mark had an off game during his Heisman year

75-ish yards and 2 touchdowns is considered a bad performance? He even got a tackle, tonight.

Quoted wrong person. Mobile is glitchy

How long has it been (up till now) since the coaches for Alabama and UT actually respected each other?

2 TDs. He's still on a better pace than Ingram was and Trent is all that is MAN.

Competition for the Heisman this year may be a little tougher.

A tale of two halves. AJ answered all of those who asked, could he step up if a defense stopped the run. We had 35 yards rushing in the first half, then AJ stepped up. After we scored the 2nd TD in the 3rd quarter, TN rolled over like a good puppy.

Like a lazy Blue Tick Hound Dog!
