Boring Game?

Just read an article about how boring the LSU/Alabama game was and how maybe Oklahoma should be named the national champions even though LSU was the number one team and Alabama was number two  and based on a squeaker of a victory, 9-6 in the first contest.  No one complained of boredom in that first overtime victory.

I have read stories of how this was going to be a low scoring hard fought contest like the firsdt game was because both teams had great defenses.  There was a game in the last few weeks in which the two teams scored like 160 some points and everyone was bellyaching about how sloppy and boring that game was and that an all offensive game was more boring than a hard fought defensive contest is and one writer said he would be looking forward to this game between LSU/Alabama because it would be a well played defensive contest.  Now he is complinning for the same reason.

I don't watch football with the exception of the Super Bowl now and then.  Most games are boring to me considering the average amount of action per contest is only about 7 minutes.
