Ed Orgeron and his trademarked speaking voice spent more than 24 minutes Monday talking about this Saturday's meeting with Alabama.
The LSU interim head coach had more than a few nice things to say about the No. 1 Crimson Tide. The two will meet at 7 p.m. in Tiger Stadium.
Here's a quick taste of what Orgeron said in Baton Rouge:
-- It was "Tell the truth Monday" and "the truth is this is a great Alabama team." Orgeron also said Nick Saban was "one of the best college football coaches in football history."
-- On former boss/colleague Lane Kiffin: He's a great game-day play caller because he sees things fast and he knows how the defenses operate.
