That’s what the headlines tomorrow should read.
LSU is a great football team. They have some great talent and in all fairness they are a better football team than Alabama this year. Tonight however, they did not play that way. They played like thugs. It takes a lot to get an unsportsman-like conduct call, so to get two in a game is indicative of a problem. LSU displayed no discipline or focus. They did not deserve to win this game, and they would not have if the replay official hadn’t have given them the upper hand on several plays that were clearly not “indisputable”.

I’m not bitter, I just think that Alabama’s players played above their talent and depth in order to compete with LSU, and were it not for replay officials changing the game this could have gone the other way.

I disagree with the bloggers over at Roll Bama, Roll. As much as I want to see an SEC team get into the National Championship game, I don’t want a team that’s going to play like LSU did tonight to represent the SEC. If the go to the National Championship game, they had better get some focus and discipline or they will fall against any team (assuming they have fair officials).
