game summary

NEW ORLEANS -- Jeremy Shelley kicked five field goals and Trent Richardson broke a 34-yard touchdown run late in the fourth quarter as No. 2 Alabama beat No. 1 LSU 21-0 on Monday night -- the first shutout in BCS title game history.

Richardson swept around left end and raced down the sideline to the end zone with 4:36 left for the first touchdown between the Southeastern Conference rivals in more than 115 minutes of play and one overtime period.

Alabama had put it away before that as Shelley kicked field goals of 23, 34, 41, 35 and 44 yards in the first three quarters to make it 15-0, matching an all-bowl record. He also missed two field goals and an extra-point attempt.

But this time the missed kicks didn't matter to the Tide.

The Tigers and Tide met on Nov. 5 in what was dubbed the Game of the Century, and the Tigers won a touchdown-less, defensive standoff, 9-6 in overtime. Alabama went 2 for 6 on field goals in Tuscaloosa.

it was over when: jeremy shelley kicked a 23 yard FG with 5 minutes to go in the 1st quarter

pretty much this. Bama's response to bad field goal kicking was to not even let it come down to that. Shut out.

there were great defensive highlights. Alabama's secondary is the most physical secondary in the country. They made some great tackles fighting off blocks from receivers and even tight ends to stuff the run. I don't know to me its fun to see a defense fly around and just destroy an opposing team the way alabama's defense does. I'm not even a Bama fan. No dog in this fight but I appreciate great defensive play.

That shit is great for a regular season game...for a championship game put up some damn points...a month to prepare and BOTH offenses couldn't get in the endzone til LSU's defense said "We're tired of bailing our sorry ass QB out"
