Yes we all get it.

It was like an NFL game. Except for the fact that:

1. neither team had a QB that could complete a TD pass during the entire game.
2. Neither team had a WR that could run a decent route and get open for a TD pass during the entire game.
3. Neither team had a RB who was good enough to break a tackle or two and score a TD.

You almost never see an NFL game with that shitty of a score. Why? Because they have an offense. Even the terrible teams have good offensive skill players. There is no defense that can stop a perfect route and a perfect throw. Or a perfectly timed play call.

Do not get me wrong. The two defenses on the field were top notch and a joy to watch because they were loaded with talent and good coaching. But the offensive skill players and offensive coaching in that game was the worst you can imagine.

But quit trying to say that shite pile of a game lived up to its hype. Because it did not.

Sorry for the interruption. Lsu fans can go back to dickriding bammer.

Well, I believe there is one QB, 5 RBs (including the #3 pick in the 2012 draft along with last year's NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year) and 5 WRs (including a 1st rounder) that played in that game now in the pros. So there was no shortage of extremely talented skill players.

It was just great D that night on both sides. Bama thought they were approaching a TD on a trick play/pass from Maze, but Eric Reid (another 1st round safety) made an unbelievable interception and wrestled the ball away from the WR at the last second.

Great D is hard to beat. See record-breaking Peyton Manning in Super Bowl.

Beat Auburn by a combined score of 87-24. AU had ONE Offensive TD, late in the game vs. LSU's scrubs.

LSU averaged 35.7 points per game that year with probably the hardest schedule CFB has seen in decades. #17 Scoring offense. Bama averaged 34.8 points per game. #20 scoring offense.

The two defenses were beyond top notch. It was two NFL defenses going at it. Both teams would have crushed 2013 auburn or 2010 auburn

Your ignorance is seeping.

Rueben Randle
Odell Beckham
Jarvis Landry
Spencer Ware

Will need a Bama guy to elaborate on their WRs from that game but:

AJ McCarron
Trent Richardson
Eddie Lacy

All disagree with you.


6 of 8 off LSU's 2 deep on the DL were drafted.
6 of 8 off LSU's 2 deep on in the backfield were drafted (including the Thorpe winner and a heisman finalist).
