It was just one game in which LSU ran into a buzz saw and probably one of the best offenses in the nation, especially when they are willing to let Tebow run in big games. I still think Florida is the favorite to win the NC. The real gap I see for LSU is their linebacker play, I think Chad Jones should be moved to outside linebacker where he can roam and make plays. LSU took it on the chin, no doubt about it, but any reasonable football fan can see that program certainly is not about to tank.
