Actually...no, I could care less about LSU. If you guys truly didn't care about Bama or Saban you wouldn't flood his name on your message boards daily.




Then why are you on a LSU Board?

Because this board is all things Bama all day every day. You'll notice that we aren't on Tigerforums.com or whatever it is, because they don't talk about Alabama all the time.

If you didn't care about LSU why would you even point your internet browser to a LSU site or even care what was said on a LSU site. Just wondering not trying to start anything.

Deep down they feel guilty for having Saban as their coach. I mean, deep down they know that it's a little sad that a program of the magnitude of BAMA would have to pay as much as they did and they feel silly for the way he is treated (obsessed over)by their own fans. I say this because Bama fans have been sucking up to LSU fans as much and more than i've ever seen before in my life.A lot of them have been anyway. All kinds of compliments and attaboys from Bama fans that never used to give ANY props to LSU , cause they were BAMA and too good for us. What's changed? Bama hired Saban. They feel ashamed, hence the fake arse compliments of anything and everything LSU lately. Sooo, they keep tabs on LSU fans and what they say about Bama/Saban, so they can be on hand to defend against what we say at all times.

I'm seeing comparisons being posted that FAIL at epic proportions.

To ask how Bama fans would react if Bear Bryant had left for the pros and came back to LSU is outrageously lopsided. To compare Saban's tenure at LSU to Bryant's at Bama, and the loyalty and compassion both fanbases felt for them and their accomplishments, is just ludicrous.

If Fran came back to the SEC right now, to a Western Division team thats not a real rival, like Ole Miss, Bama fans wouldn't have anywhere NEAR the venom for him that Tigahs have for Saban. That is an absolute fact. Anyone who thinks Bama is sitting around talking about Fran even 1/100th of the time time LSU talks about Saban is kidding themselves. Even if Fran came to an actual rival, like Tennessee, it wouldn't be as bad as what I see here on a daily basis.

(The reason I didn't use Auburn for either of these comparisons is that they are OUR MORTAL ENEMIES...going back entire generations. It doesn't matter WHO coaches there, we're gonna hate 'em, even if it was Santa Claus and Mother Teresa was the DC)

Yep, you're an idiot. Following your logic, isn't it a shame how far LSU has fallen, to pay what they pay to Miles now? Is it a pity what Stoops has conned out of Oklahoma? What about the depths Notre Dame has fell to pay that salary to Charlie Weiss? How sad is to see the depths the Yankees have fallen to pay that money to A Rod? Hell, what about the Dolphins paid Saban, a sign of how far they had fallen?

This is big time, & big money, sports brother. Try to keep up with the times.

You can try and rationalize it all you want. When your board is consumed with topics about Saban and Alabama, you are going to draw a lot of Alabama fans in.

And fwiw, I don't feel guilty for hiring Saban. That is one of the better excuses I've heard from you guys though.

Spurrier to USC

Saban to Bama.

There is a world of difference in how UF and LSU are handling the situation.

And LSU isn't any different since they gave their coach a raise making more than Saban to make sure he stayed ? Only difference is you guys still are more OBSESSED over our coach 100 times more than yours.
There are NO Miles threads on the first 4 pages of the Tiger Rant yet there are 4-5 Saban threads that go 4-5 pages long on here and LSU fans keep over him.

My arrival here came about because I didn't like ANY of the Bama boards I normally visited (and still don't). There was too much sunshine pumping and polishing of future national Championship trophies. I went full-time to the CBS Sportsline board and posted there for quite a while. The focus there was too scattered though, since it was a national board, covering every topic under the sun. In a thread one day I mentioned that I wished I could find a very SEC-centric board, as I had visited the boards of several SEC schools but found them pretty barren, and not a lot of topics that I related to. The guy I was talking to, GeauxTiger, suggested this board to me, but warned that it would get ugly quickly since I was a Bama fan. That didn't phase me, so I lurked for a while. I joined and never went back to another board for posting reasons.

I'm came here looking for SEC-centric football talk. You guys talked about Bama. A LOT. So I decided to stick around. Blame yourself for me staying.

BTW, you'll notice I'm on the SEC Rant (best idea ever), not the Tiger Rant. So take those weak arse "why are you on our board" complaints back over there....

So what about when LSU had the highest paid coach in the country a few years back in Nick Saban. Were you sad? Was your program sad? Were you guys embarrassed? I bet not.

Hahahaha...pathetic. Yeah, THOSE OTHER EXAMPLES I gave are perfectly normal, but these selected cases are just evidence of desperation.

You sir, get a giant purple and gold "L"...for being a first rate

BTW, how did Saban's salary compare to the national average when he was at LSU? Hmmmmmm....?

You see, this is what I was saying, you guys never thought we were worth your time, before. Even though you are wrong about us only now being worth a damn, your post further solidifies my opinion. Finally worth a damn? We've damn near owned you in Tuscaloosa for two decades and are currently on a five year streak, and you have the nerve to big time us like that. See, I knew that all of the compliments and arse kissing lately is just BS. I know how you people really feel.

1 dollar over the highest paid coach which was Stoops at the time IF, read taht, IF he won the NC with LSU. Compare that to Bama and you've paid him about half a million PER WIN

Nicks outrageous salary is all up front, no need to win a NC or anything like that to be the highest paid... just show up in T-town and holla process, and he's paid.


by the way, quit calling names it's getting old.

Pretty selective way of looking at it. Yeah maybe in Bryant-Denny but we only started playing there exclusively since 1998 I believe. We are currently 14-13-1 against LSU since 1980. Not what I would call a difinition of owning anyone. Now, I don't think you want to go there about who wins in the other's stadium. You didn't fair so well against us until our coach took over your program. Just sayins all (Plus I want this thread to reach 25 pages).
