Some Bama fans care more about seeing their opponents lose than they do in seeing their own team win. That is the difference.

When Alabama finishes 8-4 this year, what will the excuse be? They will probably look back and be thankful that they squeaked out the one point win over Arkansas and held on against Tennessee. Otherwise, it would have been 6-6. At least they'll have the West Virginia, Florida, and Texas A&M victories to remember. _______________________________________________________________________
LSU players know how to win close games against good teams. Bama players have not had that experience.

Yeah, I was wrong. Bama proved me wrong. That is kind of my point. I have no business talking trash anymore - not until my own team can actually finish a game against them again and be more competitive. The shutout against Arkansas was pretty much the last straw. LSU is not close to where they need to be, even though they should have beaten Alabama. But, they were never going to. They don't have what it takes right now.
When I was a little kid, I remember the best Saints teams of my childhood lose in excruciating fashion to the Joe Montana led 49ers. The Saints would always be leading 14-10 or something with 2 minutes left. Then, Montana would get the ball, drive down the field, and win the game. Every. Time. The myth was that the Saints were just as good as the 49ers but just a few things didn't go our way. The reality was that we weren't in the same ballpark. They could finish and we could not. That was huge.
Same thing here:

Can you point me to any decent tiger fans? By your standards of course.

2 Kinds of Bama Fans on this Board - I genuinely appreciate one kind. Thanks.
The other group that is just writing post after terrible post trying to flame and diminish LSU, you are acting in a way that I have expected from Bama fans - so I am not surprised.
These are the kind I had the wonderful pleasure of encountering in Tuscaloosa in '05, '07, and '11 with their unprintable toothless, stinking Katrina and then Deepwater Horizon insults. They made Bears fans look like Amish altar boys. If I would have made insults about what happened in Alabama in the spring of 2011 (which I would not have even thought to do) how do you think that would have gone over ????????
Before that time I was sort of indifferent to them and just tried to ignore them. Never really cared one way or the other.
Not any more.

Which is sad. I actually think that the % of actual grads/students who act like the walmart bunch is higher than we think.

I sincerely don't believe you made it anywhere near Alabama's campus for any of these games. If people really were saying things like this it was only because you were acting like a drunk a-hole to begin with.

Tell you what. We'll continue to call out our shitty posters and you do the same for shitty LSU posters.
Now I realize that you have the bigger task if for no other reason than the predominance of LSU posters around here, but we can only do what we can do.

#1. I don't drink
#2. We NEVER start anything when we come to your fair city and campus. We would be afraid to.
#3 It was a small but vocal minority of fans that did this to us. For chrissake I know it doesn't respresent the other 100,000 on campus or the bama fanbase as a whole.
I was actually surprised that these people were bama fans, because most are like like LSU fans as a whole - fun-loving, jovial, rabid, knowledgeable, and generous.
#4. I did not reply or say anything back to these people. So no, I WASN'T an a-hole.

It's probably an age thing.
I lived through Bama sucking.3-8.Sun Bowls,Music City Bowls.
They need to realize that this run isn't going to last forever.
Bama tried to hire Rich-Rod,and he said "No".
