They have benefitted purely from the N$AA corruption and media propaganda, or in 2009, got lucky that Colt McCoy, a Heisman finalist, went out at the beginning of the game (that injury BTW would have been called targeting in today's game). When Bama finally goes undefeated and doesn't play a cupcake OOC schedule to get there, then I'll acknowledge they were the best team. Until then, we will never know until a playoff. quote: First of all before anyone bashes me I am not saying Bama is not good. They are very, very good. My problem is they are overrated. They are being treated like they are this unbeatable monster that everyone should be afraid of yet they lost last year, and the year before, and 3 times the year before that. Let's examine last year. Bama played 3 really good teams in the regular season (sorry Michigan you don't count). They scored a last second TD to beat LSU. They lost to A&M on a last second INT. They beat Georgia on a last second "goal line stand/fluke play" Bama could have easily lost all 3 of those games. They could have easily won all 3 of those games. But the point is Alabama is not light years ahead of the rest of the good teams in CFB. They split with LSU two years ago. Yet the media treats Bama like they are the early 2000s Hurricanes or the 90s Nebraska teams.


I see nothing wrong with any of these comments. Lots of truth

Both are true and IDK if you are serious or trolling. It was a whole lot of frickery going on with the refs in the 09 LSU/Bama game and they beat Tennessee on a blocked FG. Auburn was up 21-20 with 1:30 left on the clock Bama scored and Auburn was driving and ended up at the Bama 37 to end it.

In 2011, Oklahoma St wins in double OT and game over for Bama's season, and LSU hoists its second in 4 years. The media played a large role in Bama getting their second chance. I have never seen a team win a rematch game in CFB for a while and if they do, it is extremely rare. (YES I AM BUTTHURT)

In 2012 Prevent Chavis prevents us again from keeping a team from last drive scoring and Miles tricker-ration, tricked us right out of a win. They lost against TAMU and then others had to fall yet again when they had they championship berth in the bag. Five yards away from losing yet again against UGA.

They are still the best team every year but they are not invincible like the media wants everybody to believe and they are extremely blessed by the football Gods. Sure LSU had a incredibly lucky break in 07 but that doesn't beat lucky breaks, media bias, and refs (09) for 3 out of the past four years. This extreme amount of luck has to have a double edge right?
