Sunday Hangover: LSU

The second half didn't start out well for Alabama. LSU got the kickoff, marched down the field, and scored a touchdown. After that negative though, they didn't score again. 

The Tide dropped 42 points on the Tigers. 

Alabama featured a run-centric offense for the most part with a lot of key runs from Milroe, who had four touchdowns and netted 155 yards of rushing stats. 

I think we'll see more of this kind of game plan with Milroe doing more with his legs. The great development is that Milroe seems comfortable passing too. Usually he's excellent with the long passes. 

But last night he didn't hit any of the long, deep pass plays but instead did well on the short and intermediate routes, which is a significant change of form. 

During the broadcast, the commentators were intimating that Turner could have been called for targeting Daniels on the play that knocked him out. I don't think so. To me, it was a clean, hard hit. He didn't use his helmet as a weapon. He just hit him hard.
