Tomorrow Tells All

There are too many story lines going into tomorrow's showdown with LSU, but none has been bigger than Saban returning to Baton Rouge with the #1 ranked Alabama Crimson Tide. The first thing I am going to look for is when the defense hits the field and Terrance Cody test the knee he sprained in the Ole Miss game more than two weeks ago.

I ran up on an interesting story on Deadspin about LSU finding out his cell phone number and calling him non stop. LSU fans are notorious for this, but let's hope JP plays like the other victims of these jokes - Knowshon Moreno, Matt Stafford and Tim Tebow. All of those players played major roles in each team scoring 50 points to lead their teams to victory over the Tigers.

Tomorrow could either seal the deal for the Tide's SEC West Championship or could make for a daunting task to stamp the Tide's tickets to Atlanta. If Alabama loses to LSU, they will have to beat Mississippi State, who have defeated Alabama two years in a row, and Auburn, who is on a six game winning streak against Alabama.
