I know my fellow bama brethren well and if you're like me you are just sitting back watching the trash talk patiently and just waiting for them (rival fans) to mess up and then unleash holy hell on them. Can you imagine how many threads have been bookmarked and how many response threads there will be?

You can bookmark them all you want, but one of the shittiest things about this website is they will just anchor it and it will never show up on the front page.

I've done it many times and the threads never get bumped to the top.

They can do that all they want but there will still be a ton of shite posting from our fans giving it right back to them

I can't take the shite posting over there anymore, even though oddly enough, I usually only even look at that board when we lose.

Outside of the team boards, the only fun thing about this board is the shite talk.

No. I don't enjoy trash talk at all.

I find it hilarious that we have made the AU fans relevant. They are now acting like little brother of LSU.

If UGA wins Saturday I will get banned and if not then if LSU misses the playoffs it will happen.

I haven't fully decided if I enjoy the hypocrisy of fans in general.
For example, you have heard for years from LSU fans about "conference champions only", etc. and if Georgia wins this Saturday, I FULLY expect to hear from a large majority of them that LSU still "deserves" to be in the playoffs.

I quit reading and posting on that board after the Clemson game last year. The admins let the coonass tiger fans make the board unbearable for 90% of Bama fans.

I used to enjoy it about 20 years ago, when the college football forums were new to the www. Now I would rather have good conversation. As I have said before, the open board on this website could be a good one for that but it's pretty much just a trash talk board. With as many forums as there are on this site, you'd think they might start a new board open to all teams for genuine discussion and keep the trash talk on The Rant.

Not a bad idea TBH. People still get to do their shitposting but people looking for legitimate discussion don't have to wade through it.

Not sure if it would work in practice, but it's a good idea and probably worth a try.

I love how LSU fans have been dick riding Clemson for the past year, and may now have to face them in the semifinals. God help them if they don't manage to win that game.

I can't believe how many of them continue to bitch to be honest. Their fanbase is perpetually chapped about something.

It has worked on other websites. Most of the time the posters kind of police their own, directing the trash talk to the appropriate board, which in this case would be The Rant.

I think there's absolutely an opportunity there for something like that.

Would require the mods to actually moderate if you want a reasonable talk board. The mods on this site are mostly LSU homers and aren't willing to reign their people in

I got a 48 hour ban two weeks back for my signature being one that everyone got stuck with over the LSU year long sig bet. And yet Gary Busey still has it as his

My schadenfreude scenario is Climpson whacks LSU 45-16.
