You act like paying #3 Oregon is no big deal. Are yall in this discussion if we don't play them?

Exactly. And that is a HUGE difference.
Plus the fact that LSU's other tough game was also away from home. That's a another big difference that you left out.

You are obviously scared! You know that you will get passed by OSU and their is nothing you can do but sit in your trailer and pick your boogers.

The only difference between the quality of Alabama's schedule and LSU's schedule is the Oregon game. Both teams played Florida and Tennessee as cross division opponents while Bama had Vandy who is better than Kentucky. Both teams obviously played the same SEC West opponents.

As for the non-conference schedule, LSU did play a very good Oregon which is the only thing Alabama can't match with the schedule. Other than that:

Kent State and North Texas = Western Kentucky and Northwestern State.

at #21 Penn State is no worse than at #23 West Virginia.

LSU has been very impressive and deserves everything they're getting but their schedule is identical to Alabama's other than the Oregon game.


Thanks for showing us that you're a useful idiot. Enjoy your day working at the DMV.

I'm not picking on LSU either as they're legit and should be in the BCS Title game even with a loss on Saturday. I just find it funny how everyone who points to what a great schedule they played turn around and call Alabama's schedule s### yet they've played practically the exact same schedule with the exception of Oregon.


Dude, you know that if we didn't beat oregon, we would be playing them in the championship game and not you guys right?

Except LSU has beaten every top 5 team they have played. Bama, well...hasn't.

And you do realize that if we hadn't played Oregon this year, you'd be sitting at home on Jan 9th?

This is it. Without that win by LSU, Alabama isn't even in the discussion for the BCS title game right now. So, they should be thankful LSU scheduled and played them. Otherwise, they wouldn't even have this opportunity. Instead of thanking LSU...

so let me get this straight

we only played an extra out of conference game against a top 10 team, we beat the #2 team on the road and are getting to play an extra game against at Top 20 Georgia team

but other than all of that, LSU and Bama's schedule are basically the same

Unlikely, but if they happen to "sneak in" then it's a very weak argument. The Big East going to any BCS bowl game is a joke.

W Ky is much better then Kent State.

NW St and Ga So are FCS so they are a wash.

So, of our three relevant OOC games, LSU's opponent was tougher across the board. Plus, you played two of three at home. We only played one at home.

And, you got us at home.

There really is no comparison here.

FIFY

You are forgetting the SECCG also, but whatever you gotta say to yourself to make it seem 9-6 didn't happen. Also LSU beat a top 2 team while Bama lost to a top 2 team at home. But who really is keeping count.(Obviously not Bama fans)

Bama doesn't really have as many legit national championships as you like to crow about.

one team beat 7 or 8 ranked teams including 3 in the top 5. one team beat 3 ranked teams all year. NO BIG DEAL
