Generate controversy-> increase viewership/discussion->more eyeballs for game ->advertising $$$$$ -> ESPN

LSU is #1, Bama is a fake -> *Yawn * from across country -> LA/AL watches game -> mini $ -> ESPN

Disrespecting LSU
I have heard several national types say that if they beat Alabama in the cg, they might be one of the best teams ever. Hardly disrespect but that's just me......

Hardly...

Any other year - maybe. This year's team seems to be destined to take home the crystal - regardless of what ESPN thinks or does to enhance their coffers.

Yes, LSU has been disrespected, just look at all the preseason picks for the all SEC 1st Team. LSU has earned a lot of respect with their schedule and solid wins. Many are still disrespecting LSU with their comments that Bama has the better team and really did not lose the game against LSU. If LSU can pull off another Top 6 win in the NC game it will be interesting to see what the doubters say this time.

I've seen some of it, but it doesn't bother me. To me, it's just the usual effort to create more pre-game hype.

I think both TEAMS have respect for one another- and that's what really matters.

Both will be focused on game day, and it should be a classic.

Actually LSU has been pretty well respected outside of ESPN. For some reason, ESPN continues to disrespect LSU, which is fine, LSU just proves them wrong each and every time (Which is probably why ESPN hates LSU.. )

Since we're talking about disrespect...What did AJM do to piss off his OL during that overtime?

The LSU DL spent more time in the Bama backfield than Trent Richardson!

If we lose the NC game I don't see a melt down, just a disappointment and realization of what a great year we had. Next year this young team will be even better. If we can win the NC we will be setting up a possible repeat for next year.

Is LSU the most disrespected SEC Champion ever? I ask this because I think the consensus among the LSU faithful is that they were/are being disrespected. What say you?


Yes. And bama / saban have all the pressure on them to win too. Les beat Saban's best team ever. Saban and bama nation couldn't possible lose to such a far less superior coach again; and for a 3rd time in a row.

please post your poll results. by your methodology (reading the crappiest black heli threads over on the TRant) is it fair to say the opinions on TideFans are the consensus for Bama fans?

You don't understand Louisianians very well.

We have always been/are presently now/forever will be disrespected by outsiders - in all ways, not just sports.

It's the gumbo.
