Championship Material
Well, that was interesting.
It was a real shame that Colt got knocked out of the game so quickly. I would have liked to see him have the chance to end his career with an amazing championship game. Instead I got to watch Saban call conservative plays and yell at his special teams coach.
Wasn’t that a great onside kick by Texas? Kick it right at a guy, let it bounce off of him, then recover it.
Note to Texas: next time you’re about to intercept a fake punt pass, knock the ball down rather than catch it. Field position will be better.
Note to Texas QB Gilbert: it will be interesting to see you play next year. You showed some real spark in the second half.
LSU finished the season in the top 20 (#17 in both the AP and USA Today polls). It will be interesting to see what happens next year. I believe the main difference between LSU and Penn State this year was QB experience. That and more bad clock management by Miles at the end of the game, but that’s a different story.
