Observation: I was at the AU/Tulane game so I didn't get to see LSU and Tejas live. Watched the replay last night. First, one hell of a game. Back and forth, great athletes going up and down the field. Yes, this ain't your grandpa's LSU. I saw one running play in about a 10 minute stretch. This is supposedly The Saints offense and it's scary good.
Texas may not be "back" as everyone proclaimed, but quite honestly, I don't want any of that right now. They looked damn good. You might assume that it's two weak defenses but when high powered offenses are clicking, very few college defenses can stop them. But then, maybe it was just two mediocre teams making each other look good. Either way, it was an entertaining ball game.
Extremely trivial note here. Not that I give a shift about either one, but it's good to see two traditional powers stay true to traditional uniforms. Both look just like they did 20 years ago. I'm happy that Auburn has never done more than a tweak here and there. Still the same basic scheme they wore decades ago.
