re: Apparently the Saints coaching staff spied on LSU's BCS practices and gave that

(not directed at Teague, the post reply button was most convenient for me to click)

I just want to add...I find it mighty ironic how LSU fans fall all over themselves to point out the 'excuses' Bama fans make after a loss, yet they are pulling out the ultimate "Bama cheated to win" excuse nearly 11 months removed from 1/9.

I mean, seriously guys, stop trying to blame that on everything but the most obvious.

Normally the most obvious answer is the right answer. Saban said before last Novembers game that they practiced almost exclusively to defend an LSU O led by Lee. When Jefferson came in it added a whole new dimension that they weren't prepared for. This was obvious.

However, going into the BCS game Saban knew they needed to prepare for Jefferson more. They knew how to defend Lee, now they needed to master what Jefferson brought to the game.

There's really no conspiracy here. The most obvious reason is the most likely reason. Stop searching for some hidden behind the scenes unscrupulous conspiracy and accept reality.
