Here it is the #1 game of the century #1 LSU vs. #2 Alabama. This was the most anticipated game of the year because; you rarely ever see #1 vs. #2 game in the regular season. The game started at 7:00 and it was in Tuscaloosa, the heart of Alabama football. Probably one of the biggest football hometowns in the U.S. The day started with Lee Corso, Kirk Herbsrteet, Chris Fowler, and the one and only Brian Wilson. They were calling game picks left and right, from games like South Carolina and Wake Forest. But the game that mattered most was the game of the century. LSU at Alabama and Brian Wilson was wearing an LSU jersey and helmet. He picked LSU with no hesitation and Kirk picked Alabama. But with Lee Corso you never know what he is going to do next, so he started with rallying up all of the Alabama fans by saying those famous words, ROLL TIDE over and over and over again. Finally he came down to his decision. He said ROLL TIDE one more time and then put on an LSU tiger mascot helmet, and with that he made his decision. Later on around seven the game started. Everyone was expecting the greatest showing of football of the century but as the game went on, 1st quarter, the score at the end 3-0 Alabama. And at the end of the half, 3-3 tie, then at the end of the 3rd quarter, 6-3 Alabama. Then towards the beginning of the 4th it was 6-6, then the Alabama Crimson Tide were knocking on the door step of LSU to score the first touchdown of the game but as they had thrown the ball deep and the ball was picked of by Eric Reid, then on no one scored anything until the end of regulation. Then overtime started Alabama got the ball to start and marched down the field all the way to the LSU 35. It was 4th and 20, and Cade Foster set up for a 52 yard field goal, and hears the snap, TIPED and LSU ball at their own 35. Then LSU marched back down to the Alabama 8 yard line, then on 3rd and goal Drew Alleman set up for a 25 yard field goal and a time out Alabama, the crowd was getting louder and it seemed that the crowd had gone silent, that no one was there and it was just the kicker and the defense. The snap went back drew kicked it, it went strait through the uprights and the LSU Tigers had stayed undefeated. It was jaw dropping the fact that two teams as great as they are not score one single touchdown throughout that whole game or even over time. That was the game of the century.
