Alabama recruits better athletes more consistently and has better coaches.

They had the games all but won in 2012 and 2014 in BR. Thanks Chavis


Games like those two worry me about our potential with the swamp kittens' sloppy seconds.

It has been almost seven years since a team who was not ranked number 1 in said season won in tiger stadium.

2009 Florida was ranked 1 in said year
2012 bama was ranked 1 in said year
2014 bama was ranked 1 in said year.
2014 state was ranked 1 in said year.

All other teams have lost in tiger stadium for almost 7 years

Death Valley has become pretty overrated over the years.

Alabama has not beaten LSU decisively in Tiger Stadium in 13 years.


Yup, 31-0

Meanwhile, LSU has beaten Alabama decisively in Bryant-Denny in: 2001 and 2003


So... 12 years ago? Such a huge change from 13.

them in closer games in 2005, 2007, and 2011.


Yeah... so, about the same time frame. But, in the past 8 years, Alabama is 6-2 and owns every game decided by more than one score (2009, 2012 BCSCG, 2013).

Technically it's sloppy thirds. Tennessee had the GOAT DC lose them a bunch of games first.

I have never seen such a successful program have such insecurity as Bama.

See Notre Dame. They mourn fictional soulmates and pretend Indiana is magical.

The same reason lsu has won 7 of the last 11 in BDS. The road team plays well, as of late , in this series.

The same premise applies to a couple of the last 4 A&M/LSU games. 


You're joking right?

Les Miles is 62-9 at home and 46-4 at night. 2 of those losses were to Alabama, both were close. One was a close loss to #1 Florida. The other was to State last year. I'd say that's a pretty good home record. It's only the best stretch in Tiger Stadium history

Hmmm. Don't know. I guess 2000, 2004, 2006, 2010 like never happened. FWIW, the 2008, 2012, and 2014 games in Death Valley were all in OT and/or were decided in the final seconds.


I think we have found the new moral victory champs of college football.

Not at all.
Some very tight games in the mix during the last four match-ups.
But this thread is about LSU & Alabama.

Im sooo sick of the mythical NIGHT shite at Tiger Stadium. And im an LSU diehard. The games are cooler at night yes.

But they always tout the winning percentage and that's stupid.

Cause big games are the ones moved to the day time, leaving us to munch on some mcnese states/ mississippi state wanna bees

Don't forget UT 05 in a night home game. (that was a bad UT team against a very good LSU team too)
