The BAMA was the better team talk after last game

I respect BAMA as a team and an opponent but I thought all the BAMA was the better team talk after last game was not cool for multiple objective reasons:
1) We had more rushing yards. Period.
2)TR was held to under 100 yards. He is a beast.
3) Leaving points on the field applies to a missed short field goal.
4) I recall one short, field goal that was BLOCKED, not just missed. That shouldn't happen.
5) I recall the other field goals being long, as in >40-50 yards. Missing those are not
simply leaving points on the field.
6) Part of the reason you kicked so many field goals was due to BAMA's inability to move the ball in the red zone. Don't recall the specifics, but remember hearing that BAMA was like -30 yards rushing in the red zone?
7) At halftime, we were inside the 5 when we kicked our 1st FG.
8) We were poised to score a TD had it been needed when we kicked the game winning FG.
9) We won the turnover battle, correct?
10) Finally, this was in BAMA's House.
I respect this team enough to say that we are not heads and shoulders better than them. I would not be surprised to see em win a rematch. These are to good well matched football teams. Maybe LSU has a clear edge in special teams only. I just don't see the merit behind saying BAMA was the better team. But, if so, they will soon get a chance at redemption. Then who was the better team??

Doesn't matter LSU gets their chance to prove they were lucky to get out with a 3 pt loss.
Or Bama gets to prove they were the better team. Jan 9 be patient.

didn't read, but Bama was the better team last game and I was rooting for LSU. Bama left a lot of points out there on the field.

Great post. All facts that will be ignored or downplayed by the gump army, most of whom are quite well-trained in groupspeak.

I don't know who was the better team but the entire game you kinda had the feeling that if Bama scored a TD the game was gonna be over.

Good post OP a lot of truth in it. What i will add is that i was very upset with the way we approached the game. I thought at least 2 of the field goals were absolutely terrible decisions (knowing Fosters range) and we should have punted and played for field position. LSU had the jump on us for most of the game on field position and if we had punted and pinned them more i think we could have pinned them down like Georgia did and given ourself a much better shot.

Bama WAS NOT the better team that night. Christ, we beat them at home with our then backup QB.
(((9-6))) for the retards who flunked elementary school math.

Bama gave us their best shot and couldn't get it done at home
LSU has a better punter and FG kicker
LSU is much deeper at RB and FB and DL and QB!! :)

Typical type comment from a LSU rant-tard.

Here's the thing: we find out in 34 days. If LSU wins, by any margin, regardless of context...Alabama fans will be forced to shut the frick up.
Although they probably won't.

Without looking up stats, I'll adress some of this for you.
We had more total yards, period.
TR had like ~150 yards if you include receiving.
Cade foster doesn't kick short field goals or extra points for a reason.
Somethings were do to your defense. But us ending up in 4th and longs around the 30 were also due to us getting senseless penalties, maze falling on his own on a reverse, etc.
True, but ya still had to kick a field goal.
Then why didn't you punch it in? Oh, cause it was 4th down.
Yep.

Bama had bigger plays and that's why they "outplayed or outgained LSU"
We left TR open 2 times for big gains
I highly doubt that happens again
And we need to ball hawk their TE
