What To Watch Tonight: National Championship Game

LSU plays Alabama tonight in the college football championship game - or maybe its basketball.This is a rematch of a bone-crunching defensive struggle in which LSU prevailed in overtime - after Alabama's Australian kicker had missed four field goals. There is a lot of controversy over the BCS allowing a rematch in the title game but these are the two best teams in the country - even if they won't produce the most aesthetically pleasing game. Nick Saban and Les Miles are two of the best coaches in the game. The latter perhaps at times unconventionally so. Of course the stars will be on the field and in this article Tony Pauline discusses the NFL draft prospects in the game. Of course off the field Alabama already has one major victory over LSU this week.

With no work I am tempted to stay up. Their is a 'Jeeves and Wooster'* episode on ITV3 tonight to bridge the gap to bridge the gap to the late kick-off. Ultimately, the opportunity to hear a line as good as Brent Musburger's from last season may be too much:

* I have never seen an episode of this but I am a Wodehouse fan and have a 'Best Of Wodehouse' post ready to go for a rainy day.
