That's great; you should be proud of being second. LSU won it's first National Championship in 1908. That team also went to Cuba and beat Havana University to become the first college football team to play outside the US or Canada. But I think it's great you guys got going about 15 years later.
Maybe bama has the worst field goal kickers in college football though. I'm sure they will be medically discharged after this year. I bet saban has them off by themselves kicking today. He probably hasn't spoken a word to either of them. The poor kids are probably scared to death.
All I have to say is congrats, from this purple and gold fan, on a HUGE win! It was an incredible game. Here's to wishing you guys the best for the rest of the season!
