If you Aggie fans really dont beleive that the only reason yall beat Bama, was because they battled the frick out of themselves with LSU{yes theirs as long as ours, biggest game of year} you are seriously delusional...I am a pretty big gambler..I will give any gamblers a lil tip...Bet against the winner of LSU vs. Bama, unless they have a bye the next week and you are 10-0 last 12 years...FACT..Same works in other conferences big dogs face each other... its just human nature to have major letdown....Peace

Fact check time, lets just go back 5 years:

LSU Wins

2007: LSU beats bama 41-34 on 11/3 then beats LA Tech 58-10 one week later 11/10

2010: LSU beats bama 24-21 11/6 then beats LA Monroe 11/13 51-0

2011: LSU beats bama 9-6 on 11/5, then beats Western Kentucky 42-9 11/12

Alabama Wins:

2008: Alabama wins 27-21 on 11/8 then beats Miss St 32-7 on 11/15

2009: Bama wins 24-15 on 11/7 then beats Miss St 31-3 on 11/14



So going back the last 6 years the ONLY time the winner of the Bama or LSU lost the game following their matchup was against Texas A&M. There were no bye weeks in between those either.
