2004 and 2006.


quote:

The teams began playing each other on an annual basis in 1964, with Alabama playing its home games at Legion Field in Birmingham and LSU playing its home games on campus at Tiger Stadium. The series has been marked by long stretches where the home team has struggled. Alabama is 28–9–2 against LSU in Baton Rouge; they went 16–1–1 from 1965–98. Alabama has gone 7–12 in games played in Alabama since 1982. LSU has gone 4–16–1 in games played in Louisiana since 1982. There have been two overtime games each in Tuscaloosa (2005, 2011) and Baton Rouge (2008, 2014) respectively; the road team has won each time. In fact, in the series history, only 39% of games have been won by the team playing in its home state (excluding ties).



Surprising that as big as the Alabama/LSU game is (at night recently, usually a top ten matchup, rowdy and loud cajuns in "college football's toughest environment") that they haven't had more success in Baton Rouge recently (0-4 in night games there since 2012).

Day 158 of the Great Bama ‘Melt of 2019/2020 had Gumps limply grasping at any straw at their disposal. Mental health professionals had promised us it would stop and asked us to be patient, but no end was in sight.

We hated to see it.

I have never met an Alabama fan in person in my life who has melted about LSU. I remember the Gerry DiNardo days.

I think most real Alabama fans can acknowledge the fantastic season that LSU had, and of course we wish things had been different as supporters of our own team, but you can't seriously think people are going about their lives "melting" over one game or one season?

Have you been to Alabama? It's all they have. Bammers are experts on shite holes and know how to properly appraise them.

I know a lot of Alabama fans personally that are melting about LSU. I have family members from Bama who call me out the blue till this day and swear Orgeron is a one hit wonder. Its like they are trying to convince themselves.

Till it happened.
