Kind of like how L1U has won 1 game in the last 10 against us? How you like that math?

Or we won one of the last two. The one not being in a shortened crazy covid year where all the best players in the country didn’t opt out of playing or start their season at thanksgiving lol.

Myth Busted

Lsu took the year off after Leach punched them in the face. *s began to enter the LSU ranter's lexicon after that game. Beating a hapless Vandy brought the emotion back, but it fell off a cliff at Mizzou. Blaming CV19 is convenient, but 5-5 would be easier to accept if you just admitted the truth: Coach O lost focus and the team didn't respond well to success from 2019 and adversity from lost coaches/talent

How many UDFA can you list that take out multi million dollar injury policies and play the entire year, yet dint get drafted?

It's not real common for fans to follow opposing players that closely. It's kind of obsessive. And sad and pathetic.

I couldn't name a single L1U player from their team other than Burro, the RB, and the WR that quit on them. Don't know, don't give a shite.

I’m sure I’m forgetting someone.

Of course, someone else mentioned DT already. All time legend. Beast. HOFer.

2 words bro: TROLL THREAD...

They can't rag on Bama about anything else... No scandals, no former QB' dressing in drag, there aren't any rapists embedded into the program... Bama just won the CFB Title, and before they try to put an asterisk on it, the playing field was level.. Not Bama's fault that they some bitches.., The basketball program just won the tournament AND regular season titles and went to the Sweet 16 in year 2 under our prodigy of a Coach... Saban just signed the highest rated recruiting class of all time. and the arse beatings show no signs of slowing down... Oh and for those who haven't heard the news, Bama just tied Miami for the most draft picks in the first round... 6 guys in the first round... Think about that for a second, almost 20% of the players drafted in the first round were from Alabama.. Rhetorical question here but, do you realize what that says to all of those elite prospects who dream of getting into the NFL??

Not everyone is going to light up the NFL the way they did college.. Some people develop later than others and some peak in college.. Justin Herbert was a 3 star recruit, along with JJ Watt... Tebow was a 5 star and one of the GOAT SEC players of all time and he can't even pay a team to give him a workout...

All that said, relax Bama fans... Let the trolls have at it.. We ALL KNOW that most of them would kick their own grandma's in the teeth to be able to even sniff that kinda success.. And what's worse, instead of Saban actually getting older and slowing down, the man seems to be getting STRONGER.. He could legit be around for 10 more years... Part of me kinda feels bad for them because the arse kickings won't be stopping ANY time soon...

Bama won't win it all every year... But if a 10-11 win season, having lost 2 games by less than 15 points, is a down year that tells me that other fanbases must be going stir crazy... THIS historic run ain't over by a long shot and everyone knows it...

So let them troll away... Just remember, that it's coming from a place of misery and heartache...

How does an UDFA become a bust?

100% agree with this. But it was before the season started. Jamar Chase sat on his arse all year while Bama’s best wr in their history busted his arse all year yet still couldn’t get drafted before him.

Smitty was probably a mid-second round the year before. he came back and busted his arse, won the fricking Heisman, won every other award , and elevated his draft status from mid-2nd to Top 10. he broke soo many records he set the standard at Bama for WR

Smith showed more class and perseverance than anyone from LSU's trash program

Ragland bust, Rashaan Evans bust, Tim Williams bust, rueben Foster bust, Rolando McClain bust for where he was drafted, I’m sure I’m missing more, but that’s all I can think of.

You missed Mosley and Hightower


But seriously, Alabama would have more success at ILB if they played a 43 defense and DL took on more run responsibilities rather than the ILBs needing to be bulkier to plug inside run gaps. When Alabama's ILBs have gotten into a quality franchise that has been committed to the 34 defense for decades, they've done pretty well. Foster and McClain were mental midgets when it come to personal responsibility and staying out of trouble. Evans is starting and is one of the few good players on the Titans' bad defense. I don't think Tim Williams was ever considered a top prospect. Not surprised by Ragland not flourishing either. He was just solid at Alabama and didn't have that flash of a 10 year starter like Foster and McClain did.
