run defense of the crimson tide. coker, drake. dwayne thomas, one of three. a flag down. >> gary: alabama was just trying goal. they don't want to back up. that's one thing they didn't want. they threw a quick pass. really weren't trying to go down field there. they were trying to set it up closer for a field goal attempt. what happens? they lose ten yards on a holding call. >> verne: pierce baker. sophomore. >> gary: pierce baker out of iowa. recalls sitting at home in iowa watching this game on television. that's when he decided he was going to not go to iowa, by the way. pretty good football team this year. >> verne: they are. >> gary: and come play here. >> verne: he's from cedar falls, ridley this time is in the slot. the top of the screen. o.j. howard, number 88. here's coker. got him. ardarius stewart. >> gary: you know what stood out there? the time that coker had to wait to throw that ball. and now right back in field goal range. kenyan drake. played his part. the last one, he stayed in and helped in the pass protection. >> verne: so here's griffith the first half. this is from 30 yards out. 3 for 3. got off to a horrendous start this year. missed his first four. came in to tonight 10 of 16. surging with confidence right now, i'm sure. 30-10. a golf class. >> gary: very polite. the final countdown! if you're the band europe, you love a final countdown. it's what you do. if you want to save fifteen percent or more on car insurance, you switch to geico. it's what you do. >> verne: we've witnessed an amazing defensive job by alabama holding leonard fournette to 13 yards on 15 carries. a long gain of four yards thus far. his counter part, derrick henry, 129 yards. three touchdowns. all on 27 carries. here's nysewander, clearing the block for henry to stroll in. moments ago, adam griffith of the night. >> gary: just to put it in per speculative speculative -- perspective, leonard fournette had 20 rushing attempts of 15 yards or more. nothing. >> verne: nope. long gain and it seems a long time ago was four yards. he's attempting to become the second heisman winner the history of lsu football. billy cannon got the first in 1959. there's the guy who told us that he is living the dream. starting quarterback for the crimson tide. having started his career at here's griffith. derrius guice. minkah fitzpatrick. is that dillon lee? he got up. >> gary: i'll say this. it was a five-star game. i'm not sure he which one. >> verne: that's right. don't forget, the napa play of the game presented by napa auto parts. if that makes sense. that's coming up. >> gary: right now, less miles has to remind his team the season is not over. they still have arkansas, ole miss and texas a&m left. remember, next -- if alabama stumbles, lose as game, then also still would control their destiny. i've already said, a one-loss sec champion will be in the playoff. >> verne: left side, caught. that's deshawn smith, number 89. >> gary: tight end in the slot. it's a zone combo look. sometimes -- that looks like it's coming back too, verne. watching the replay there. >> referee: 15 yards added to the end of the run. first down. >> gary: the players thought it was coming back. the lsu players walked back. the alabama players walked back. when they met the official said oh, no. we're tacking it on to the end of it. let's see if we can see where it happens. right in the middle. right there. yeah. good call. so now across midfield for one of the few times tonight. lsu with a first down and 10. trailing by 20. oh, that looked awful. that looked worse. >> gary: the first part of the play, brandon harris tried to get rid of it anyway he could. he had no time at all after the two players ran into each other. jonathan allen almost got rid of it. >> verne: second down 10. wow! incomplete. >> gary: well, we haven't called player. one of the best middle linebackers in all of college football. that's how you cough the ball up. gimmick play that time. offense. takes the screen to the outside. delays the tying end. ragland standing right there. >> verne: third down and 10. >> gary: they tried to get fournette on the linebacker before. >> verne: oh, well. oh, well. i'm flashing back. almost -- well, to 1979. so help me. roger staubach's last past for the cowboys was thrown to herb scott. >> referee: illegal touching. fourth down. >> verne: a nice catch. >> gary: sure was. might have found a new tight end. >> verne: jamie keehn on to punt. coach, i made a heck of a catch. >> gary: he's got a laugh to it. not much you can do. he was open. >> verne: i like the athleticism. he had to reach back. a one-handed catch. somewhere right now, herb is i know what it's like. oh, boy. 30-10. now we have a conversation going on midfield. fourth and 8. >> gary: nick saban is confused why it's not moved back further. >> verne: that one takes an lsu hop. will be downed at the 7 yard line. this is all alabama. this ultimate chicken sandwich is so great. i mean, this is the chicken sandwich that all other chicken sandwiches are gonna be judged against. well, i'll actually be the judge of that, peter. so what are you, some sort of chicken judge? i find this ultimate chicken sandwich on brioche bun to be guilty -of being delicious. -great. -tj, this is ridiculous. -you're out of order! i'm outta tots. order me a drink. case dismissed. -all rise -for the honorable new ultimate chicken sandwich. and don't forget our ice cream cake shakes and cones. -(click) you know what's funny?

anybody have the guts for that? >> verne: i don't think either of those two ladies -- no, not at all. >> gary: okay. >> verne: first down and 10. henry leading the way. >> gary: this will come as a pass. a complete. henry truck and trailer. stay behind the big truck. trail and you got it. learned that a long time ago back in high school. truck and trailer. >> verne: by the way, i bumped into your center before the game. >> gary: the last captain of an alabama team coached by bear bryant. the last time. he was the captain of the team. >> verne: i'll be darned. >> gary: yes. >> verne: is that a fumble?

number 46 bowers is the guy that got his hand on it. >> verne: i think he did. here's henry. angry with himself. reggie ragland looks into the student section. he says give us a little noise down here. >> gary: this is where malachi dupre has to make a play. they have not been able to run on this alabama defense. what will lsu dial up? >> verne: in this half, lsu has run for minus 1 yard. they got 37 for the game. longest run of the game by far. >> gary: out to the edge finally. as a running back, just have to say, i run my style, i trust my offensive line, even if they don't deserve it. tonight i got to keep running. >> verne: that's a gain of 18. that's a gain of one. if that. reggie ragland, 10:37 to go. second and goal. back to the i. play clock at one. time-out. lsu has one remaining. time called. give your gathering something to gather around. how you doing? hey! how are you? where are we watching the game? you'll see. i think my boys have a shot this year. yeah, especially with this new offense we're running... i mean, our running back is a beast. once he hits the hole and breaks through the secondary, oh he's gone. and our linebackers and dbs dish out punishment, and never quit. you didn't expect this did you? no i didn't. the nissan altima. there's a fun side to every drive. nissan. >> adam zucker in new york. utah surviving seattle. travis wilson gets in on third and goal. they win by 11 to defeat washington for the first time ever. navy scored the final 21 points to give memphis its first loss. that means houston is the only group of five times still undefeated. verne and gary, back to you. >> verne: adam, thank you. take a look at this defensive bunch. there's 15 or 16 alabama players. that's all the different matchups that alabama will use. eight guys go off. 11 stay on. 19 guys were ready on that play. >> verne: oh, boy. field. lob pass into the end zone. flags. malachi dupre. cyrus jones defending. >> gary: wow! cyrus jones go i don't know what else i should have done. defense. number 5. the ball is placed on the two yard line. automatic first down. >> gary: he got into him, no doubt. hit him with his hip before the ball got there. contact below the waste is what the call was on. perfect call. >> verne: first down and goal. >> gary: by the way, lsu will use all four opportunities if they need them. >> verne: back in the i. toss. up in the air to the one. just outside the end zone. d.j.pettway with the tackle. >> gary: and think pettway and lee with the tackle. >> verne: and lee with the early interception in this half. second down and goal. >> gary: he had a sack, forced a play running in. >> verne: 14. that should be a touchdown. it is. >> gary: well, nothing to do use all the strength you've got and get it in there. >> verne: and domingue for the extra point. reid ferguson is the extra snapper. line. >> verne: it's blocked. blocked by a'shawn robinson. >> gary: what a game a'shawn robinson has had. he's made plays in the backfield. this time number 86 leaped. he weighs 325 pounds, ladies and gentlemen. he leaps the line of scrimmage like that and swats it. >> verne: that was pretty impressive. the ability to jump over. here's the derrick henry fumble. and fournette by far his longest run of the night. this was for 18 yards. and then fournette for the touchdown. it is still a two possession game.do you fill the yard with colorful lights?
