Well, don't look now but it looks like LSU (10-3) & Bama (11-2) finished only 1 game apart on the season. And we'll probably end up with similar recruiting classes. Record over past 4 years: Bama 46-7 (26-6), 1 SEC title LSU 44-9 (25-7), 1 SEC title ... and LSU had higher SOS. The gap is media hype. FIRE MILES! HAIL SABAN!!!

LSU has proven year in and year out that they are the class of the SEC. Les Miles has yet another 10 win season and another bowl win. He's one of the best in the business.
That two game difference are the two losses incurred in 2011 and 2012, the difference between 3 crystal balls for Les Miles instead of Nick Saban.
