Click here for linkDown deep, I had serious doubts a few weeks ago.
I just didn’t see LSU beating Alabama in Tuscaloosa. Heck, I didn’t see anybody beating the Crimson Tide in Tuscaloosa.
OK, maybe the Green Bay Packers, but nobody in college football.
At the time, I hadn’t seen LSU live and had seen Alabama live twice. Both times, the Crimson Tide were dominant, routing Arkansas 38-14 and battering Florida 38-10.
Well, I’ve seen LSU live each of the last two weeks, and if anybody can beat Alabama on the Tide’s own turf, it’s the Tigers.
I swear they get deeper and nastier every time I watch them play.
But what I am saying is that LSU is right there in Alabama’s class, and if they were playing on a neutral site or playing in Baton Rouge on Nov. 5, I’d go on record right and say that the Tigers would win.
Two weeks ago, Alabama was my pick and still may be.
But LSU has a way of growing on you. The more you see these Tigers, the more impressed you are with them.
