Craig,
The close game was Auburn/LSU, LSU beat Auburn by less than they beat Alabama and that was a close game too( BTW Auburn also beat Alabama). The trouble with playing football in the SEC is you have to play all "them" SEC teams.

We're not going to agree on Louisiana politics. But we can agree on Louisiana sports, so that's good enough.
I was mostly responding to your saying that we have a red Governor, which confused me, particularly when the inauguration and the game were on the same day.
In fact we are a deep Red State with an (atypical) Blue Governor.

Was there a football game somewhere?

Both of those games were hard fought, although the Alabama game was completely one sided until half time.
Like most LSU fans, I was an Auburn Tigers fan for the Iron Bowl. Partly because I was dreading another Alabama rematch for LSU (as in 2011), partly because of Saban's comments about Auburn being the toughest opponent AL would face all season, and partly because I just like seeing Alabama lose.
In fact, Auburn is a team I'll always pull for unless they're playing LSU or Vandy.

Ooops, tough crowd here. A couple years back, I was an Auburn fan, but only because Central Florida sent em home to cap an undefeated season. I cant say UCF has the big, long traditions, but we had a relative down in the area.
I hear you folks on how tough the SEC is, but Im not overly broken up about Alabamas season. Money, money, money, must have been hell to pay in those private alumni/booster dinners.

Woodreaux,
You are a gentleman and a scholar so I agree to disagree.
Laissez les bon temps rouler ma cher!

As a Bama fan, I was cheering for LSU. Didn't want to see Clemson win another one and also wanted to see the title go back to it's rightful home, the SEC West! It was also heart warming to watch Little 10 teams lose in those bowl games. Made everything right in the universe. Nick will have his boys ready for another title run. Might have been a better result for The Tide if Tua didn't have an early end to his season, but that's what happens in a violent sport. 8 more months and we can start watching all over again!! ROLL TIDE!!

James, it's nice you can speak and write a foreign language. If you'd stop around my club, up in the shotgun room we'd all pat you on the back once we found out. But maybe here you could keep it to English so all of us uneducated poor folk could understand what you're trying to say. Thanks - Paul

....ROLL TIDE!! It probably would have been, but just based on his athleticism. I think you folk are better off that hes headed for the draft, I dont think he has elite level smarts for his position. Bama invested in his younger brother back a couple years as a high schooler, hope that pans out.
