No more, no less.

Wonder if it is because of pictures or just ready to go home

Immediately turning off the scoreboard immediately after the game.

The announcers on the radio talked like they did it before the game was even over.

You’re melting like a bitch in every thread.

Alabama fatigue is real. You’re done. It’s obvious to anyone paying attention. You can’t win without outside help.

To be fair, they really wanted to show off those new stadium lights they copied Georgia with and LSU ruined it.

I dunno their reasoning but it may well be to limit bulletin board material for the future.

And to those who disagree, it really is pretty common practice. Happens everywhere I've ever been. The final score at "0:00" is rarely up for long.

They should use red led lights

Cheaper to operate.

Could leave them on all week.

You are welcome to your opinion, wrong though it may be. Mine is based on direct observation.

They always do that when they lose at home. Have to be fast with the camera

They did. I had my phone out on the scoreboard ready to take a pic when clock hit triple zeros. At about 19 secs and the clock running all the scoreboards shut off and displayed a "Thanks for visiting Bryant Denny Stadium" or something like that. I just laughed at how triggered that scoreboard operator must have been.
