Are you entertained now???

I vote we go back to blowing out teams in the first half and just relax in the second half.

All those blowout wins between 2016-2020 were so relaxing.

Who complained about boring blowouts? You’ve invented a person that doesn’t exist.

Welcome to the new reality. Any team in the SEC can be beaten by any other team on a given day.
We are experiencing what every other fan base has had to endure, and it sux.

There were several fans back in those years that said the games were just too boring.

I'm ok with a 31-3 halftime lead and winning 41-10.

I like all wins.

Every. Single. One.

Some of these "fans" would rather be FSU it seems.

I just want to convincingly handle teams we're supposed to handle... Look at Texas... Cupcake schedule, but they're beating those cupcakes like they should.

This is like last week when you guys asked..

"who dislikes Milroe? No one posts anything negative about him!"

It happened and quite a lot actually. Dudes would complain about how boring our games were and why Saban shouldn't complain about the crowds not get up for them.

Blowouts are boring but fans want close games against great opponents. Not USCe or MSU

The thing that’s getting annoying is fans are forgetting that we had these types of games under Saban well into his tenure at Bama. No one seems to remember the Arkansas game in 2014 after losing to Ole Miss. Last year, we barely made it out against Arkansas and an awful Auburn team (yeah, it’s a rivalry but still)

The only people who complained about blowouts were women.

Fans are stupid.

Vandy is actually a good team who could be undefeated and should have beaten Mizz as well.

South Carolina is a scrappy team that LSU needed a TON of ref help and a late comeback, then a missed FG to win.

Both teams are going to surprise some of these propped up teams that got ranked higher because of pre-season.

I still feel our DC is trash at 3rd and 4th down which is our main issue along with our LBs being below average quality... however those two teams are scrappers who will cause problems and both will have 7 to 8 wins minimum in a hard schedule and conference.

I honestly don’t care if half the fanbase scatters. I remember when a win over Southern Miss was something.

Ditto. I remember being PROUD to be bowl eligible. And a NYD bowl game??? Well that was a great fricking year.

To be fair we had a 28- lead vs Georgia the first half. How’d that turn out for us. Lol

I said this before and I'm glad the media and some fans are starting to see this now.

All that smack talk about losing to Vandy but they aren't bad. They're actually a team who is going to surprise a couple including those LSU fans who think they're the same walkover.

FWIW, I wouldn’t watch some of the games live because the would be blow outs.

Now I have no clue what team will show up so I tune in more regularly. I think that’s fairly common amongst fans.
