The LSU fan base would be hard pressed to look worse than they did for the first two days after 11-8-14

I'm sure if Bama fans were trolling on Tiger Rant they would be banned.

I don't see how you could ban an entire fanbase of an SEC team from an SEC board though.

Why is Alabama still good and continues to dominate whereas LSU waxes and wanes with the loss of talent? This was supposed to be a "down" year for Bama too but here they are again - #1 in the the CFP

Let's see...coaching, talent evaluation, recruiting to need, development, coaching, making adjustments during games, lack of reliance on the magic of a stadium to win a game for you, instilling personal responsibility on and off the field, coaching, generations of past excellence to aspire to match or exceed, coaching. I think that covers it.

If you're referring to TideFans, that's not a very good representation of Bama message boards.

It's in their written rules that suggesting any coach other than Bear Bryant as the GOAT is a bannable offense.

Half the Bama fanbase is banned from there too.

Both teams have top shelf talent, facilities, and fan support. Both have plenty of money, fertile recruiting grounds, great administration..... I don't know why there is such a large variance in the W-L column.

After 9-6 Tidefans banned ALL LSU fans permanently. I think said ban is still in effect to this day.

Alabama has a fifth year QB and LSU has a Sophomore. It's pretty damned simple.

Just look at how well Mettenburger played last night on MNF. He left a big pair of shoes to full. Also look at how well OBJ did this past Sunday.

Stop crying about it and support your program.

Ok but if you're going to make comments about the mouthbreathers on the tiger rant, expect tidefans and BOL to be used against you.

I'm aware. That board is shite. That's why I came here. To an SEC board not biased to one school or the other.

I don't remember this being proclaimed as a down year for Bama...their biggest lost was at QB and they can obviously play around that. They were pretty well set everywhere else.


This is probably the weakest OL on any of Saban's teams. That, combined with a new QB, I thought we could have anywhere from 1-3 losses. So far, pass bleeding has been pretty good. But there's a reason why our RBs numbers are down, and it's not just Kiffin's play calling.

Sims spent two years as a RB and ran read option only as a backup QB. Don't act like he was groomed to take over for McCarron. Lots of revisionist history with Sims.

Actaully Bama was not suppose to have a down year this year. QB was the only problem they had and Sims has played well since the Arky game. They started off #2 in the preseason polls and this

quote:

o, yes, the Tide will, as has ofttimes been the case over the past five-plus years, be the favorite not only in the division but in the conference, despite the presence of East/SEC title winner Auburn. The Tide is locked and loaded to bounce back from two straight losses to end the 2013 season by a squad that was viewed by some, including its head coach, to be an entitled bunch. A pissed-off Saban with a legitimate agenda and loads of talent at his disposal entering a season is a dangerous proposition not just for the SEC but for college football as a whole.

pull you head out of your arse rantard. Only the Tiger Rant thought Bama was going to have a rebuilding year.

I've been banned from tide sports twice. Once for saying JPW was mediocre and wouldn't make it in the NFL and once for jokingly telling a poster we could meet in a ring of fire death match in front of Bryant Denny Stadium to settle who was right. That's why I came here. They don't accept you unless you pump sunshine and say Bama is the best at everything.

Calling JPW mediocre is giving him way too much credit.

I think the answer to your question and the reason so many LSU players leave early is the same.

Coaching. They get out as fast as they can in order to develop their talents the proper way.

Maybe it's just a case of the level of play being down across the board. There have been several games that Alabama has won but not dominated. I believe...and I think most Bama fans might agree, that neither our starting QB, our starting RB, nor any of our starting OL could have started for any Bama team from 2009 to 2012. And while Ragland is a beast...we'd probably take any of those LB corps that had McClain, Hightower, Upshaw and Mosely.

Losing 2 games is not a down year. Losing 2 is an average year IMO. 4 is a down year and 5 or more is a castrophe IMO.


I still see yall losing 2. MSU will smack that arse in a rematch 21-0 (yes I am trolling)
