LSU has lost 1 game in Tiger Stadium since 2009.
So, the ONLY frickING WAY that Bama could win at TS and then go on to lose to A&M is because LSU made them tired.
Even when you tards DON'T try and make stupid arguments, you do anyway.

Did i disagree with that statement???... The counter point that was made is that A&M considered Kyle Field to be an absolute nightmare to play in. Which I dont believe anyone said...

JFF may be awesome off the field, but he wasn't awesome against Florida and LSU and wasn't as noisy against Alabama after the 1st quarter.

Yeah, I didn't say any of that. But by all means, continue to call other people stupid.

LSU's excuse for losing to Bama at home when A&M beat them on the road is that LSU caused Bama to be tired.
We hove to throw out all the other "factors" and focus ONLY on that one factor. Forget home field advantage. Forget LSU's bye week. No. The ONLY difference was that LSU made Bama tired. That's why A&M beat Bama and LSU couldn't. That's what we keep hearing.
There's a difference between being tired and undisciplined/unfocused/hungover. If Alabama was tired, then why didn't A&M score several more touchdowns after the 1st quarter? Was Alabama magically not tired after A&M's explosive first quarter? No. You used the wrong word. AJ was off his game and banged up, and that was really the difference between a win and a loss. Two underthrown deep balls resulted in turnovers on the following set of of downs.

Nobody here claims their stadium is insurmountable as much as LSU does. But Bama walks in there and gets the W. So, A&M MUST have had help winning in T-town. Must have. It had to be the awesomnessednessitudedness of LSU
You do realize that the LSU-Bama series is odd in the fact that the home team usually loses more than the visiting team, right?
I mean, hell, Bama didn't lose in Tiger Stadium for like thirty years. Doesn't mean LSU never won.
And look at LSU-Bama in 2011, in T-town.
Bama actually loses more at home than on the road for some odd reason.

Ranttards cannot, simply CANNOT, take a line of reasoning and apply it to a different situation. They make the STUPIDEST comments without thinking about how such "logic" could be applied to them. And when we do, they still don't get it.
If they were any different, they wouldn't be "ranttards" [sic], would they?
...and the world would be a lonelier place.

I don't think you understand what I meant by "noisy".
3 touchdowns in the 1st quarter versus 1 in the last 3. I don't care how you spin it; the team didn't have the same scoring success.

So, what was your point? You didn't just state that in a vacuum.
LSU could not beat Bama at home. A&M beat Bama on the road the next week.
Is it because LSU's stadium is not as big of an advantage as everybody things? Is it because LSU weakened Bama?
But just ignore that other possibility completely--that A&M was a much better team after the LSU game than before/during it. That couldn't be possible. Teams that have brand new coaches and new, freshman QBs don't get better as the season progresses, right?
Y'all have to make up all kinds of excuses and bullshite to make it all okay. It just gets really old and tiring. The bullshite is up to our eyeballs.

LSU got Bama AT frickING HOME
Curiously, in the 31 years since Bear Bryant's last season in 1982, LSU is 4-11-1 at home against the Tide, but 11-4 @ Alabama.
We each seem to do better at the others' house in this series, and have almost identical records.

I think its because they outplayed expectations.
When people expect you to be an 8 win team and you end up beating the best team in the land, have a player win the heisman, and score all kinds of points then people say, "Holy shite they're grrrrrrreat"
Only time will tell.

Alabama's defense was below the Saban standard, and team didn't play at an elite level against their toughest competition.
I do agree with this. Said all last year, the linebackers especially.
They were big and strong, well disciplined, but not as fast as the previous years.
That's a big reason that they had trouble with QB's like JF. Their sideline to sideline speed wasn't as great as the previous years.
Biggest reason Mett had his best game all year. LSU exploited the flats.

Exactly. So, there must have been SOME sort of explanation as to why A&M won against Bama, right? Which was what?

Yes we all know, we have heard it since the game... Alabama decided before the game, in a pact with LSU, that they would lose the game vs A&M on purpose (knowing that one lose would still get them to the Natty), included in this part of the agreement was the fact that every LSU fan would have to bring up they fact that Bama ONLY lost because they were tired from LSU. In return LSU would drop the game to Bama on purpose as well, but actually "show up to play" against A&M. Thus solidifying 2nd in the west for LSU, Bama in the Natty and A&M finishing third.
So because of this agreement:
1. A&M beating Bama was obviously going to happen. I mean you cant break the first part of the agreement. You signed it! A&M didnt play well at all right? No... absolutely not... This is their first year in the SEC... they cant just walk into the SEC and play THE ALABAMA FRICKING CRIMSON TIDE and win.. thats proposterous.. How dare they hang with Florida with 4 quarters or hang with LSU all game... this was obviously ALL A CONSPIRACY!
2. LSU gets to continue to boast their own ego knowing that THEY ARE THE ONLY REASON A&M beat Bama... Had it not been for the physical play Bama would have been playing their 3rd string in the second half against A&M.
3. A&M is still a bad football program. All SEC teams should mark that W in permanent marker on the schedule they have hanging in their moms basement. Be careful not to get the cheetoh residue from your fingers on it though. Wouldnt want to ruin such a thing a beauty as a premarked schedule full of "W"s.
