LSU/Alabama Could Be Sporting Event of the Year


In sports you never can truly guarantee things before they happen, the greatest of matchups on paper can turn into blowouts or snoozers and a matchup that might not seem worth watching to begin with could turn out to be one of the year’s best games or events.

Despite knowing this, there is a matchup this weekend that could set up to potentially be an epic matchup and possibly the best sporting event of 2011. That matchup of course is between the #1 ranked college football team in the country the LSU Tigers and the #2 ranked college football team in the country the Alabama Crimson Tide. This game is not only a matchup of the two clearly best college teams in the nation, but it could also possibly be 1) a matchup of the BCS title game in January or 2) better than the BCS title game in January will be. It will also be a game that brings to an end the potential undefeated season of one of these two powerhouses (which unfortunately could keep one of these two teams out of the BCS title game if it’s determined that an undefeated Oklahoma State or Stanford or some other team deserves it more.)

All of the season’s marbles are potentially on the table for this great matchup that will be broadcast on CBS at 7 on Saturday night. If you’re not going to be tuning in for this matchup, I simply have to ask … what kind of sports fan are you?
