LSU’s getting horribly coached down by the goal line. No sense of clock and play calling too predictable.

They should toss that Bama OL.  Ridiculous some of these targeting penalties get kids tossed and a blatant cheap shot meant to hurt someone doesn’t.

I meant to mention that I thought the Minny and PSU players showed a lot of class and aplomb on the field, no arguing with the refs (that I saw), they'd get up and get ready for the next play.  That was nice to watch.

I doubt a Saban team has allowed 33 points in a half.
They allowed 31 in the blowout loss to Clemson last year....

So, do we conclude that Alabama is mediocre (relatively) having not been tested and losing big?  Or that LSU is a juggernaut as they have been tested now.

If this stands, I'd have to move LSU to #1, not that it matters of course.  Clemson to #3.  I'd probably rank the two Pac teams ahead of UGA (if UGA wins).

Is LSU and OSU that far ahead of the field?

LSU had already been tested.  They are just damn good.

He's done it all year.  
LSU fans poo-poo the Brady angle, giving all the kudos to Burrow, but I'm not buying it.  The difference from last year to this year is night-and-day in terms of play-calling and the overall style of play on the offense.

MSU has a ton of depth at LB.  Jeslord Boateng and Noah Harvey both look great.
Boateng, eh? Nice.

Yeah, I was meaning to note that LSU has been tested even before this game with UF and Auburn, and perhaps Texas.  Now, presuming they hold on, they have 4 very nice looking wins, one very tough one on the road here.

After this game, they have @ Ole Miss, Arkansas, and A&M.   Eleven of us could beat Arkansas this year.  Maybe the let down trips them at Ole Miss, but I doubt it, and A&M is not scaring anybody much.

They should be 12-0 going to ATL unless Bama manages some huge come back.  Turnovers have obviously been a big factor.
