[quote]He did just fine at Oklahoma State, where he was recruiting against Oklahoma and Texas for players. Turned them into a winner. And he's not just sustained a winner here, but he's taken the program to a level in which it has never been. I'm not trying to call you out here, but you don't know ...
I disagree with most everything in this thread. I think Alabama is by far the more talented team. Saban is a better coach with better assistants - add it all up and Alabama blows LSU out 21 nothing in the most dominating BCS game in teh BCS era....

[quote]Ketchupmoney, I was in Nola for the game and the Bama fans were really great, we had some good natured ribbing and were still cool with each other after what happened. You are a sore winner and a definite stereotype of what Bama fans are usually classified as. This is my 3rd game watching g...

[quote]You have obviously never met the man, nor have a clue about his character. He may have been ill-suited for the Alabama head coaching job, but a coward he is not. [/quote]You should only talk about what you know. I know Mike Shula and his wife and daughters. My wife is a college choir direct...

[quote]He was a professional football-lifer plugged into a bad situation in May of 2003. Not that ideal spot. He coached like a NFL coach too. That was his fall. Not to mention recruiting for the first time and inheriting a depleted roster. He in no way compares to Les Miles. And before you call m...

[quote]I'm guessing you either didn't pay attention to the Shula era, or you are 15. Mike Shula didn't inherit the best of circumstances and his background wasn't the best for coaching in college. [/quote]I'm 61 and the only time in my life I ever saw Alabama give up was under Mike Shulas watch. He...

The best season in LSU history

Posted by ketchupmoney on 1/11/12 at 1:45 am
ended on a sour note. LSU was being touted as maybe the best college football team of all time and they get totally embarrassed in the BCSNCG. I'm hearing fans here say it'll help the players focus and inspire them to do better next year. I have a hard time believing that. If I was a kid pla...

[quote] NOLA >>>> Southern California. [/quote]THIS! I hated the scene in California for college football. I hope all future BCSNCGs are in the east because California is too blase about college football....
God bit your tongue! I would NEVER support Les Miles to Alabama under any circumstances! NEVER!!!!!! ...

Insight into Alabama football

Posted by ketchupmoney on 1/11/12 at 1:10 am
I called my mother about 15 minutes before kickoff to share a "ROLL TIDE" with her over the phone. She's 86 years old and a resident in an Assisted Living Nursing Home in Gadsden Alabama. In the background I could hear a big commotion with lots of yelling and cheering. I asked my Mother what the ...
Miles is the Honeybadger daddy. He stays as long as he wants....
Lots of sour grapes in here....
Quality post. I think LSU is a powerhouse program. These teams push one another 365 days a year and both are better for it....
I'm looking for some "Restore Order" teeeees....
LOL @ AU and LSU. The information in the article was compiled by the New Orleans paper - The Times Picayune....

[quote]Wrong. Only 37% of the money is going on Bama. Public is playing LSU. Big money is playing Bama.[/quote]No, your'e wrong. If more money was being wagered on LSU the line would fall. The line is rising with more $ bet on Alabama. It's about dollars not bettors....
LSU fans are off the reservation. They'll fall off a cliff if they lose....
It's taken me all this time to make up my mind about this game. If LSU doesn't score a defensive/special teams TD I don't think they can win - and I don't think Alabama gives up a defensive/special teams TD. Alabama 23 LSU 13...

re: BAMA now favored by 2.5 points

Posted by ketchupmoney on 1/9/12 at 12:35 pm
You guys don't seem to understand how it works: The line moves when more money is bet on one side. They change the line to encourage bettors on the other side. In this case betting on Alabama is so heavy they're increasing the line to discourage bets on Alabama and encourage bets on LSU - but the...
