Some of you watching the BCS Championship game are probably asking yourselves how it is that the team that beat them before is now leading and is quite likely to win it all. I'm surprised at all. I watched the first game. The fact is that LSU got lucky winning that meeting. Alabama made more scoring attempts than LSU did. The Tigers only won where it counted.
The fact was that the Tide moved the ball forward better than the Tigers did at their first meeting. They only had an unlucky kicker that day. If he scored the other three, there would have been no dispute and it would have been the OSU Cowboys there instead of LSU.
It was simply the way the Tide played against LSU the first time around that kept them in the hunt as the number 2 team. They did outplay LSU, but didn't have the luck with them.
But tonight, LSU will have run out of luck.
