That is actually completely wrong, what would have made it right is something like " Bama usually drops one to a lower ranked team"

Please list which teams Alabama has lost to that were more talented.

I'll wait...

[Here's a hint, Alabama has had the most talent in college football for quite some time now]

I agree... and Bama's balance will make it very difficult for LSU to key on anyone much less Hurts. Bama's strength is the fact that they have 5 stars at every position and an offensive coordinator that is great at utilizing them.

I think the biggest threat to Alabama is Kiffin has been known to try and get too "cute" with the playcalling. If he stays within himself I think Bama wins this thing going away.
Drives me insane with the cute shite - get zero yrds off a jet sweep when all he had to do was run the damn ball. But then when the game is over and a W on the board, I calm my arse down and accept that Kiffin has a method to the madness.

It's actually a very reasoned and common frame of reference when discussing those types of streaks/eras.

"Oh, so football only started 7 years ago? "

Look familiar?

That's the Gumps' standard response to what you just posted.

Hurts gets all the plays from Kiffin. Will Kiffin fail under the pressure of Death Valley on a Saturday night? Maybe he should sit in the sky box.


Sarkisian is in the sky box doin his job.

You don't have to wait , you said "I'm just stating facts: Alabama loses to less talented teams every year".

Wrong we have some undefeated seasons. So every year is incorrect.

You graduate high school or elementary school in 2005? Can't keep up with all the bandwagon Bama fans now a days. I know it's frustrating that your entire life revolves around a COLLEGE football team. However, there isn't shite to do in Alabama besides that.

Ok so by your logic we will lose because we are due to lose? Makes sense I guess in a magical kind of way

Reminds me of the idiots you see standing around a particular slot machine, waiting for the person playing it to leave, because "it's due to hit." Same mentality as the person who says that a bad blackjack player causes other players at the table to lose because they, "took the dealer's bust card."

Come on man, it's a frame of reference and nothing more. Just like LSU's 2016 season didn't really start until 10/1/16........CEO says LSU is "undeated" right now.

Don't tell me, tell your fellow Alabama fans. They don't seem to understand how numbers and shite work.

Have you really not seen anyone laughing at LSU fans thinking football started in 2000?

...or Auburn fans quoting stats since Bryant left?

It's just what y'all do, ignore frames of reference, because they usually minimize Alabama's accomplishments. So when an Alabama fan selects a frame of reference that puts Alabama in a better light, don't you expect other fans to call you on it?

You know, geese/ganders, etc...

Let's not act like there's a big difference between Alabama and Louisiana as far as things to do. Especially outside of New Orleans.

How about " Bama has won 4 out of the last 7 NCs played".






And LSU hasn't played in a NC game since Bama mud holed their asses 21-0.

Well, y'all don't like us going back post all-time records because Alabama comes out heads and shoulders better than any team in the conference.
