Funny. LSU and Florida do what Bama is doing this year several years out of every 10 or so and you think Bama is the chit for doing it once in a lifetime.

If Team A wins in Sport Z, Team A brags and cares about Sport Z.

I think it's worked like that since Greek times

And LSU fans used to give us so much shite about it. "You have to cheer for gymnastics because none of your other sports are worth a shite!!1!"

Now the LSU Recruiting board has an entire thread devoted to fricking Gymnastics recruiting. You people used to make fun of us for selling out our gym for gymnastics meets, and now LSU gymnastics sells more seats than LSU baseball.

I still vividly remember the laughter when Gottfried made more money than Shula

I guess if you’re less than 8 years old and shite posting on tRant, it’s a lifetime. Alabama had a great athletics year in 2012. Wining national titles in four sports.

Last time LSU won the conference in basketball and football in the same year was...

Conference basketball championships last 10 years: 1

Conference football championships last 10 years: 2
(Disclaimer: 1 bowl ban for cheating)

Conference softball championships last 10 years: 0
Lol

There are far more sports than those 3.

Yea we know, we're ranked in pretty much all of them. It took a few years to get back but Byrne has things rolling. Even in the best old days we had 4-5 sports that were embarassingly awful. Now we're down to basically 1 of those in soccer, and that one is closer to average than miserable.

Women's basketball and baseball are back to being competitive, NCAAT level programs where as 4 years ago they were among the worst in the P5.

Yes, 4 sports did well. Yet, you didn't even with the SEC All Sports Trophy and didn't finish in the top 10 of the 2 national all sports trophies.

Every non-Bama response on the entire page belongs to LSU fans.
Alabama owns the LSU fan base.

We used to be horrifically bad at softball. We have slowly built the program up. For secondary, and tertiary, sports you have to be patient.

To their credit Alabama built their softball team up the right way and did it in what has become the best softball conference in the US.
