So after last nights game, I think it's safe to say, these two teams will not provide the best possible watch for a National Title Game. It was two great, amazing defenses, but the lack of execution and production on offense left a lot to be desired. Bama's trouble in special teams as well is not something you see on a National Title contender.
Let us consider more a matchup that I feel would be truly riveting. Forget Ok State, I am pretty sure that LSU would throttle them, I may be wrong, but LSU's defense may be the best ever and OSU has basically no D at all. LSU would be able to score at will and stop their high-powered offense more often than not.
The matchup that I want to see is LSU/Stanford! Possibly one of the greatest Defenses in the history of college football going against the top college QB of this era. It'll be the coming out party of Andrew Luck to the casual NFL fan, who only knows him from the "suck4luck" campaign and has never actually watched his jaw-dropping ability. The talent level will be much higher on the LSU side, but Andrew Luck's ability will level the playing field. That's the game I want!
I think that game would provide the highest entertainment value. As a football diehard, I was able to appreciate last nights defensive battle and match of elite head coaches with various coaching styles. But from an entertainment standpoint it left a lot to be desired. I also believe that Andrew Luck is the best option in years to bring an end to the SEC's reign.
