Saban is conservative by nature. He knows these are going to be defensive battles and he doesn't want to lose due to TO's. For this game, he knew that LSU's offense was limited so all they had to do was shutdown Fournette again, which they did. If he had been playing against a prolific offense like Louisville for instance, it would be been a completely different/more wide-open game.

LSU is the only team in the SEC with a comparable talent level to Alabama. Playing the #1 team in the nation has a way of motivating you, especially when they "stole" your coach and won the last 5 in a row.
The Alabama/LSU game is the best game of the year in the SEC when it comes to talent and intensity. Why try to turn that into some messed up troll, rather than enjoying the fact that your team can go toe to toe with the best when they play their hearts out?

This thread is not factually accurate, but even if it was it would still be incredibly embarrassing for OP and the L6U fanbase in general. I suggest retreating to Tiger Rant to lick your wounds until you can get your emotions under control.

LSU is immensely talented and one of few teams who can be as physical as Bama. Saban though is a far superior coach and finds ways to win regardless of the style his team has to play to win.

Don't think we play down, just think that, since 1/9, that the Bama game is LSU's Super Bowl every year and they get amped up and play inspired...and it'll probably continue to be their Super Bowl until they win. No doubt LSU has lots of talent so they should always be competitive against us...
Case in point...I'm familiar with several of the studs on LSU's defense: White, Adams, Beckwith, Godchaux, and Key. Not being an LSU fan, hadn't heard as much 'bout Dwayne Thomas, Duke Riley, and Lewis Neal...yet all 3 of those played outstanding against Bama. Not saying they haven't played well all year, just saying I hadn't heard much 'bout 'em before and, in that game, they played as well as any of the aforementioned studs did...

On defense. They are killing their QB, but their entire offense is terrible outside of Fournette and Guice. It was only a 10 point game because you can't score less than zero.

Have quality OL & WR on offense. Will give you a sub-par QB. Problem is scheme and coaching that has not taken the raw talent to the next level or put the players in positions to succeed schematically.

What a suck arse thread by a so-called LSU fan. Tell us what color the wall paper is in Nicky's house since you have to visit he & Ms.Terry a lot.

This is EASILY LSU's biggest game of the year. We've dealt with this for decades with Auburn. You play above your head with your biggest game. Bama doesn't play down, it's just so much more important to LSU and they play much better than they normally would.

Bama tards constantly talk about how many hypothetical points they scored. It really is mind blowing reading some of the shite they say.
Have you seen the tiger rant? It's down right embarrassing.
