re: Action Network: LSU mathematically has best home field advantage

I was at the game in 2000. The refs tried to steal it for Alabama when they ruled Alabama ball after a kick, muffed by LSU, and recovered by LSU, but ruled the Alabama player had been blocked into the return man. Nick Saban was going ballistic on the sideline while the LSU players were imploring the ref to look at the video board showing LSU recovering the ball. Eventually the ref looked, and awarded the ball to LSU. I believe that was the first use of instant replay in a CFB game.
