I didn't think the Alabama Crimson Tide football team would lose a game this season, but they came oh so close to losing on Saturday night to the No. 5 LSU Tigers in Baton Rouge.

In fact, with just a minute and a half left in the game, it certainly appeared the No.1-ranked team in the BCS was going to lose. That was until Heisman Trophy candidate A.J. McCarron led a five-play, 72-yard drive, which ended with a 28-yard touchdown pass to running back T.J. Yeldon with 51 seconds left. Well, it was really a little screen pass that Yeldon and the Alabama blockers did pretty much all of the work on, but it still counts for McCarron's 19th touchdown of the season, compared to zero interceptions thrown.

Here's video of the touchdown that gave Alabama a 21-17 victory, and will keep them ranked No. 1 in the BCS Rankings:


Yeldon, a freshman averaging 7 yards per carry, is just another special running back to play at Alabama, and a terrific complementary back to the powerful Eddie Lacy. And with their offensive line, it's just not fair.
