re: If BAMA beats Clemson, then you have to credit MIke Shula!!!

Add to that the infantile response of rubbing it in our face and claiming all credit in the way that Bama fans do toward LSU, well, that is the source of the hatred that if flowing from Louisiana right now. It all finds it's home in the ignorance that is the Bama nation. If you guys (again, not talking about the Bama posters on this board) would have a little humility and give LSU and Coach Miles a little credit, then you'd see a huge change in attitude toward you.

This has been the source of animosity from AU fans forever. Bama fans have never wanted to give AU any credit or respect for anything, so AU gets pissed. When AU beats Bama there is ALWAYS an excuse from the MAJORITY of Bama nation. The most recent is probation, but there has always been one. I remember when I was a little kid in the 80's and then early 90's at school after AU won it would be the refs cheated or Pat Dye cheated, or whatever. Never any credit given and it has never changed. LSU fans are seeing this now and it may never change with the majority of bama fans. It does not matter that LSU is currently better or that AU has been better for almost 30 years, the delusion runs strong in gumpland and facts are not relevant.
