Longhorn fans: Stop trying to convince Gumps it was a safety. They will never agree.

This is the same fan base that still vehemently denies that this was an interception:

I think Alabama has done pretty well against LSU since that game no matter if that was a pick or not.

You still would've lost that game. An int on the 35 does nothing for you considering all you did that entire quarter was go 3-and-out

It was a safety.

So the roughing penalty, which isn’t reviewable, should have stood and Alabama should have gotten the ball 1st & 10.

Big 12 refs suck.

Do a slow motion gif instead of an image AFTER Julio touched the ball first while out of bounds making it an incomplete pass.

What this thread really shows is that no amount of explaining will ever cause LSU fans to believe anything other than the refs are the reason they lose football games. Because it's absolutely impossible that the other team was just better.

Even in games where the thing they complain about wouldn't have given them a win.

Alabama has bought the refs in 10 of the past 11 games.

Edit: Almost forgot the best one. According to LSU fans, Alabama not only buys the refs directly in the LSU vs Alabama games, but they also bought the refs in another game in order to get Devin White ejected for the 1st half of the game in Alabama.

They even bought billboards and put them up in B'ham.



The delusion of LSU fans has no limit.

Agreed. They should just admit the refs gave them the game and be happy. But they won’t. Sad. And ignorant. And willfully blind. Not a good look.

Bama fans are completely incapable of taking any accountability for their shortcomings.

It’s why, to this day, they still make injury excuses as if losing by 14+ points in Indy wasn’t a complete beat down and that a few wide receivers who couldn’t even make it past the 4th string in Ohio States depth chart wouldve made a difference.

Let’s be real, a lot of Bama fans live in Alabama, so if they were capable of taking accountability for their shortcomings, they wouldn’t find themselves stuck in a 3rd world impoverished cesspool that is the laughing stock of the entire nation known as Alabama.

It's just a weird line in the sand to draw.

If it was a safety, Texas goes up 12-10 and gets the ball on their own 35 or 40 on the kick. They'd gone 3 and out the previous 2 possessions, so it's not like it was super probable they march down the field and score, and they only scored 1 TD all day so it's very improbable they march on a TD drive.

Instead, we punt, they get it on our 39 and end up getting a first down kicking a field goal to go up 13-10.

Just not a lot of difference in "expected win % change" there.

It's sad that LSU fans have been melting for over a decade instead of learning a lesson most people are taught in Peewee football or teeball: after the game you accept a loss gracefully and admit that the better team (Alabama) won.

This is a situation where the LSU players, some of whom are still teenagers, show more maturity than their fans. Alabama has beaten LSU in 2012 (twice), 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2020, and 2021. LSU players have all been intelligent and classy enough to admit that they were beaten by a better team on those days. I've never heard one of them whine and bitch about a ridiculous conspiracy theory to cope with defeat.

It wasn’t a safety. He threw the ball and the defender swatted it, so it wasn’t grounding because you can’t say for sure where the ball was going
