re: Most Interesting Stat for Alabama

This isn't surprising to most rational LSU fans. I, like most, do believe in the "bama privilege" but not like you think we do. It's not that the refs throw crazy amounts of flags against opposing teams while throwing none against Bama and never was. You have the best coach in college football, coaching the best overall teams in the country talent wise and deserve the praise as such. The conspiracy comes from if LSU or Tenn. or any team brings their A++ game and all the emotion to make it a nail biter, they will get that holding call, or pass interference, or facemask to take it away from them in crucial plays.

It isn't rational to take a small sample and believe that to be the truth over a large sample. Bad calls happen to everybody take this pic of Hurts's knee being down. Ref's called this a td. It was a mistake, but to take this and use it as evidence that the refs are cheating for Bama, is absolutely ridiculous.It is clearly in the head of LSU fans who simply believes it because they want to. It somehow makes them feel better about losing to Bama.

The facemask call was correct, but the knee is clearly is down, it should not have been called a td. Bad calls and missed calls happen,both for and against Alabama, same as any other team.
