Those are early entrants to the NFL from the past 3 drafts. 15 for LSU and 9 for Alabama (12 and 6 in the last two years, respectively). Truth be told, it's not surprising that Alabama has come out on top the last three years given the talent drain going on in Baton Rouge. What is surprising is that the game has been decided in the final minute 2/3 times.

It's not rocket science. In the years where Alabama has the more talented roster, Alabama wins. In the years where LSU has the more talented roster, LSU wins.

2007 - LSU
2008 - Alabama
2009 - Alabama
2010 - LSU
2011 - Push
2012 - Alabama
2013 - Alabama
2014 - Alabama
2015 - LSU

DJ Fluker and Adrian Hubbard were left off your list. 1 extra player per year isn't much for an excuse

If Les wasn't so mean, maybe those early entrants wouldn't have left.
