Funny how half these posters are in their 20s yet they claim this as their rivalry. Rofl.

I certainly don't think that what I care about or post about on the interweb has any bearing whatsoever on LSU's football successes or failures. Especially not me being "focused on winning football games".

Genro,

I can't speak on behalf of my fellow Tiger brethren.

What I can tell you, is that whether we want to admit it or not, 1/9 hurt. It hurt bad. We dislike Bama for multiple reasons. The Bear's streak in Death Valley, Nick going there to be your coach, being the beneficiary of alot of conference moves, etc. Factor in the fact that we beat you at BDS and still had to play you again in the NC. Those are not easy things for a fan to swallow. Then we bust arse and whoop you up and down the field in the second half this year, only to lose it on a frickin screen when we were caught in a blitz. All that buildup and talk of revenge...gone.

Alot of that bitching and whining is a result of everything that I just mentioned. It's caused us to re-evaluate our views on the current state of the conference, and yeah...we've got some problems with it. It's not like anything is going to be done about it, so I don't know why you're making such a big deal about it. Let us bitch and complain, and then those feelings will pass, and we'll be fine.

My point is that no one ever seems to bring up that if LSU had just beaten Alabama, LSU would've been in the SECCG, playing for the BCSNC just like Bama. And none of this scheduling stuff would matter. Just once I'd like to see an LSU fan say, "Just win our games and this won't matter." That's what most fans of most teams would say.

When we lost to UT seven years in a row were we getting the shaft for having to play them every year?


Is the conference REMOTELY similar to what it was then??

Damn.....get with the CORRECT argument and maybe we'll listen.

When we had more teams with bye weeks before us in a single season, than every other team had had combined over five seasons... was that getting the shaft?


And did Saban NOT whine about this?? Was it not addressed and fixed?

Did Saban not whine and promote his team to get another chance at LSU last year?

Did he not whine about the high-powered offenses?

quote:

we didn't constantly bitch about it.


Bama fans bitch and moan just as much, or more, as anyone in College Football...don't even kid yourself.

Ask ANYONE on this board (who's not an LSU fan) which fanbase bitches the most. Seriously.

This isn't even a debate. Even your own damn fanbase agrees.

It certainly did. Yall made the SECCG instead of Bama, and then you made the BCSNC.

What? That's fricking stupid. Everyone knows that if LSU beat Alabama it would have been in the same spot. It was said by LSU fans and others ad nauseum. That's not some grand revelation.

I think you're latching onto the things you want to latch onto and an LSU site gives you a lot more material to latch onto. I'm quite sure if Alabama boards didn't go into lockdown mode with other teams' fans posted, there would be plenty of mouthbreather material to harvest.

If you're saying I respond to what I see in this thread, and others like it, then yes. And I see bitching.

And still had to see em again...which was unprecedented, by the way.

Take off the fricking Crimson glasses and maybe you could see where some of the complaints come from.

You try to act like Bama fans are perfect and LSU fans only whine and bitch. Get some new material because ALL fanbases have these people. I'm sure Bama boards from 2000 to 2007 were freaking FULL of these retards.

This is correct.


But since 1/9 LSU fans on the Tiger Rant and SECr have been the worst of any fanbase in history

It was under the Bowl Alliance system, and it was unprecedented for that particular system.
