LSU’s bye week: the calm before the Big Red Storm
By GLENN GUILBEAU

Historically speaking, it was interesting that LSU would play Texas A&M in its final Southeastern Conference “tune-up” before hosting No. 1 Alabama (7-0, 4-0) on Nov. 3 in Tiger Stadium after an open week.
Texas A&M has always been sort of an Alabama Light.
Paul “Bear” Bryant did some of his head coaching residency at Texas A&M from 1954-57 before leaving it to become coach at his Alabama alma mater when, as he said famously at the time, “Momma called.”
Gene Stallings, who played for Bryant at Texas A&M and coached under him at Alabama, was also a head coach at Texas A&M from 1965-71 BEFORE becoming Alabama’s head coach in 1990 with an assistant coaching stop in the NFL at Dallas and a head coaching job with the St. Louis/Phoenix Cardinals in between.
Jackie Sherrill, who played for Bryant at Alabama, coached Texas A&M from 1982 through 1988 and was considered at times in his career to become Alabama’s coach, but it never happened. There was a coach, Dennis Franchione, who actually left Alabama for Texas A&M, but he failed here.
Alabama and Texas A&M have little in common today. The Tide still plays football much like it did under Bryant - defense, run the ball, throw it efficiently, but not a lot. A&M is not great on defense, needs to run the ball more efficiently and passes like crazy. Its quarterback, Johnny Manziel, put it up 56 times Saturday and threw three interceptions.

Schlabach: Bama clearly team to beat
October, 28, 2012

TUSCALOOSA, Ala. -- So who is college football's second-best team after Georgia upset turnover-plagued Florida 17-9 on Saturday?
Is it No. 3 Kansas State, which walloped No. 14 Texas Tech 55-24 to improve to 8-0?
Is it No. 4 Oregon, which scored eight touchdowns in the first half of a 70-14 rout of lowly Colorado?
Or is it No. 5 Notre Dame, which announced its return to national relevance once and for all with a 30-13 victory at No. 8 Oklahoma?
After watching No. 1 Alabama dismantle No. 11 Mississippi State 38-7 in front of a sellout crowd of 101,821 fans at Bryant-Denny Stadium on Saturday night, I can offer you an educated guess.
The argument over No. 2 doesn't even matter.
None of the above-mentioned teams is good enough on both offense and defense to beat the Crimson Tide, the defending BCS national champions.
This Alabama team, which improved to 8-0 going into next week's SEC West showdown at No. 6 LSU, might be as good as (or even better than) the 2011 squad that finished 12-1 and defeated the Tigers 21-0 in the Allstate BCS National Championship Game in New Orleans.
