Why we're excited for Alabama-LSU
This will be a matchup between 6-2 teams with College Football Playoff contention on the line.
It's the first game between the teams since longtime Alabama coach Nick Saban retired. Saban coached at LSU from November 1999 through the 2004 season.
It's LSU's 14th time hosting "College GameDay," the fourth-most all time behind Ohio State (23), Alabama (19) and Michigan (15).
