National Championship Game Open Thread
Well, it'll probably be a short thread, since everyone has already said they're not watching tonight. But for those that are, it's the end of college football on the field for awhile. Gameday on. Pregame in about half an hour. It'll keep us busy till the Two and a Half Men Open thread starts later tonight.

MOAR PUNTS!

DJ Fluker needs to pull his uniform down or I'm going to have to post a pic of Andre Smith running.

Jesus, Alabama is just so big and fast. Those are some scary young men.
January 9th, 2012 at 9:54 PM ^
. . . that's what she said.
January 9th, 2012 at 8:38 PM ^
It would be chaos for the BCS and it'd be nice to beat the national champs at the beginning of next year.
January 9th, 2012 at 8:39 PM ^
Punting with a defense that gives up <9 ppg. Awesome.
January 9th, 2012 at 8:39 PM ^
Should make a drinking game: every time they mention the honey badger moving to the slot in the nickel package
January 9th, 2012 at 8:39 PM ^
Trent Richardson looks like one of the crab people.
January 9th, 2012 at 8:39 PM ^
would have gone for it on that 4th down.
January 9th, 2012 at 8:40 PM ^
The oversigning bowl?
January 9th, 2012 at 8:40 PM ^
Musburger needs to chill out
January 9th, 2012 at 8:40 PM ^
Bama sure does have a lot of seniors/guys leaving after this year.
January 9th, 2012 at 8:41 PM ^
Commercial. So stupid.
January 9th, 2012 at 8:44 PM ^
That's a horsecollar.
January 9th, 2012 at 8:49 PM ^
I thought so too at first glance, but he actually got dragged down by the shoulder pads. It just looked like a horsecollar because he just straight-up collapsed
January 9th, 2012 at 8:44 PM ^
Alabama could lose 3 LBs and 3 DBs if Hightower and kirkpatrick leave. That is quite a bit of production.
January 9th, 2012 at 8:45 PM ^
He's hurting really bad there.
January 9th, 2012 at 8:45 PM ^
Franchise mode on NHL '12? Yes, please.
January 9th, 2012 at 8:45 PM ^
just left the slot wide open (2nd down)
January 9th, 2012 at 8:45 PM ^
Did anyone else think that LSU's coverage unit tried just a bit TOO hard there?
January 9th, 2012 at 8:45 PM ^
Shot for a punt, field goal, and every 5 minutes there is not a touchdown
January 9th, 2012 at 8:48 PM ^
Minimum of 12 shots. Sounds like a college student's dream.
January 9th, 2012 at 8:46 PM ^
January 9th, 2012 at 8:53 PM ^
You just injure it more trying to run off. Just fall down and get treatment, screw pride.
January 9th, 2012 at 8:47 PM ^
These *spontaneous* press conference commercials Ford runs were underrated in the dumb commercials thread earlier.
January 9th, 2012 at 8:49 PM ^
the season always moves way too fast. getting rained out during the western game is still fresh in my mind.
January 9th, 2012 at 8:51 PM ^
McCarren lucky he didn't get stripped from behind there.
January 9th, 2012 at 8:53 PM ^
That FG may be enough points to win this one.
January 9th, 2012 at 8:54 PM ^
January 9th, 2012 at 8:56 PM ^
They made a deal with the devil for SEC speed, but they had to sacrifice intelligence and originality.
January 9th, 2012 at 9:57 PM ^
I always thought that was a Florida Gators thing, but it does seem like other teams (especially Alabama) are starting to use it. Am I wrong?
January 9th, 2012 at 8:55 PM ^
Ugh. Alabama's offense is sickening. LSU can't possibly have you beat on numbers everywhere on the field every play. Where is non-fumbling De'Anthony Thomas when you need him.
January 9th, 2012 at 8:55 PM ^
Throw to Tacopants gets intercepted by LSU receiver there.
January 9th, 2012 at 8:56 PM ^
Supreme open field tackling
January 9th, 2012 at 8:57 PM ^
You Are Looking Live At The National 'SEC Oversigning Medical Redshirt 'Roid Bowl ... Go LSU!
January 9th, 2012 at 8:57 PM ^
Offensive explosion
January 9th, 2012 at 8:59 PM ^
Yeah I can't contain my excitement. What brings you over here so often? Not meant to be dickish.
January 9th, 2012 at 9:03 PM ^
Not sure really. I've always been a fan of the top notch analysis and recruiting info found on this site. I also like seeing opposing viewpoints and engaging in debate. I've also roamed the UGA and Wisconsin forums over the past few weeks.
January 9th, 2012 at 9:08 PM ^
Fair enough. Keeping an open mind is always a good thing.
January 9th, 2012 at 8:58 PM ^
. Doesn't seem like a real heady player.
January 9th, 2012 at 9:01 PM ^
SEC academic standards on display. I'm glad to cheer for a university that I can be proud of off the field too.
January 9th, 2012 at 8:59 PM ^
O/U Wing punts? 11
January 9th, 2012 at 9:01 PM ^
Over.
January 9th, 2012 at 9:01 PM ^
Just think how good of a game Ok State and LSU could have been.
January 9th, 2012 at 9:09 PM ^
actually it would have been a joke. lsu made a mockery of oregon, a top 5 offense. osu is essentially the same team but with a far worse defense. lsu would have completely shut down osu, and the game would have been over by halftime.
somehow lsu and alabama are just miles ahead of everyone other team in the country, and ironically both with mediocre qbs at best.
