Youve got to be kidding me. I’ve seen a lot of excuses from tiders in the past but trying to say it makes sense that a team is flat and can’t get it up for a game vs the top ranked team that the media called a “must win” for bama to get in the playoffs and tide players said they “felt disrespected at an all time high”
Look, I am not trying to make any excuses. LSU beat us on the field, and kicked our arse in the first half.
I guess I shouldn't have used the word "flat." "Tight" would be the more appropriate word. This has been an issue since Saban has been at Bama in big games. It seems like its gotten worse over the last two seasons or so, as SoG stated.
I just think that LSU had been battle tested, and had played in 3 big time games against teams with remotely close talent leading up to Nov. 9th, and Alabama had breezed through a bunch of teams with talent nowhere close to us, and it showed.
They weren't ready in the first half, and when you show up like that against a team like LSU, considering our defensive woes this season, you are going to lose. Not trying to take anything away from LSU, just making sense of Saban's comments.

I'll buy this.
