re: Find it sad that either Alabama or LSU has to lose

Take heart in the fact that LSU will perhaps forever be a part of the biggest game in BDS history. That`s a helluva a statement given Alabama`s storied history but Nov 5th will be a gameday like no other in Bama`s history. It sucks balls that the loser of let`s say an amazing 1 point loss couldn`t meet in a BCS title rematch. As an LSU fan, I`d look at the game that way (and vice versa if I was a Bama fan and this year`s game was in Tiger stadium). I`d assume a close Bama win due to home field advantage and be pleasantly suprised if your team won. It will be a historic game because it`s phenomenally rare to see a #1 vs #2 regular season match up matching conference rivals. It`s even more rare to have a several week build up to such a game. In other words, there`s a lot to be said for being part of such an amazing historical game even if your team loses.
