No way, Bama scores at least once, probably a field goal.

I thought we were bragging, not predicting.


I predict 43-14

Is Auburn doing an "orange out" or something of the sort also?




Pretty sure they have all been ordered to wear blue this week. Somebody posted the directive here earlier.

Alabama's done the shaker for everyone thing, but have we ever asked everyone to wear all white or all crimson? Sounds like something we might resort to in the Shula era.

Can I get some LSU input on this? Your fans who post here say the don't exist. Your fans who actually go to games seem to have them in droves....

Didn't even happen in those dark times.

Auburn fans used to wear the classic navy blue at games, until the All Auburn, All Orange campaign.

I never understood it. The blue is a classic color and looks great. The orange was an accent color for over a century for a reason. It is a terrible primary uniform/apparel color.

The unbiased part of me hopes they stick with the blue this time.

Well, we do either blue or orange games two or three times a year. It's nothing special.

That pic is from the '01 Auburn game and it was a one time thing to help with a gold out game. It was the game that was moved to December due to 9/11 and was cold. Not a lot of people own gold cold weather gear so LSU handed out the shakers.

Maybe about 3-4 times. Not many really. A few years ago Capital One started handing out towels instead. We haven't had a shaker in a while.

So, these are also scenes from the '01 Auburn game, which was played in Tuscaloosa for some reason?

there are pictures from the last few years with LSU shakers at games. I don't know why this is such a big issue for some LSU fans.

I don't really care. I was just pointing out why there so many in that first pic. LSU does this from time to time but it's mostly in the student section. The past few years they've done towels.

I love how this is always the immediate rebuttal when someone calls out how terrible the shakers are.
"Na, they're drink stirrers bra!!"

Anyone who has been to a game in Tiger Stadium knows we don't use em. This is a fact.
