SEC Champs!



Brandon Taylor and star QB Jordan Jefferson hold the SEC Championship trophy

 What a week in the SEC for #1 LSU.  First, they crushed Arkansas 41-17 last Friday to win the SEC West and an opportunity to play Georgia yesterday.  I looked pretty dumb picking Arkansas for the upset on that one.  Second, they dismantled Georgia yesterday in the SEC Championship by a score of 42-10.  This team is incredible and is now 13-0 and only a national championship win next month stands in there way of an undefeated season.

Arkansas actually led LSU 14-0 in there game last Friday before LSU outscored them 41-3 to end the game.  The game turned with Arkansas punting leading 14-7.  Tyrann Mathieu, LSU's best player, took the return 90 yards for the game tying score and LSU never looked back.  On Arkansas' next possession Mathieu forced and recovered a fumble which killed all momentum for Arkansas.

Mathieu returning his amazing punt return against Georgia

In the SEC Championship Game Georgia led LSU 10-0 before LSU went on a 42-0 run to win 42-10.  Mathieu again changed the momentum when he returned a 70 yard punt to cut the score to 10-7 Georgia.  He then recovered a fumble that led to LSU's next score.  These games where both mirror images of each other with LSU trailing and then Mathieu making game changing plays to save their season and possibly make him the Heisman trophy winner.

At 13-0 LSU will have to wait to find out who they will play next month in the BCS Championship Game.  It will wither be their rival Alabama or Big 12 champion Oklahoma St.  Either way the Tigers will probably be huge favorites in that game to capture their 5th National Championship.  This Tigers team is already being considered as possibly the greatest college football team in history!  With this team filled with freshman and sophomores I hope you enjoy them football fans because these Tigers may be a dynasty!
