I have to agree with you, i believe they are so evenly matched this year that I could certainly see 5 and 5.

Neither would be able to field a starting lineup by game #4.
This BCS game will be brutal.

Then I guess the team with more depth should have the advantage.

Are we including moral victories? If so, LSU will go 0-10 because Bama really won the first meeting.

honest question, but how would Bama fans' answers change if LSU wins again? Still 5/5 split or what?

these two teams except for the obvious....special teams.
which is 1/3 of a team's component.
so your defense must be a lot better than LSU's to conclude 5 of 10 with the admission of the special teams issue

Well it will three in a row over 1/9 and 7 of the last ten in LSU's favor but somehow THIS Bama team is the one that can rise up and actually make it an evenly matched battle

I think Bama wins 6 or 7. I just think they're the slightly better team.

I believe we would come to the same conclusion no matter what the "record" was.
By that I mean, even IF LSU won 8 games...they'd all be like the first one. So close that any game could have turned out the other way.
So IF LSU were 8-2 or Bama were 8-2.....the fact would remain that it would be 10 games with 2 very evenly matched squads going at it and I'd have no way of predicting the outcome of game 11.

You think you would have won 11/5 being the better team plus having the home field advantage.

I think it would be 5-5 or 6-4 but Bama would claim wins in all of them for one reason or another.

saw this in another thread
'if they played 15 times it would probably be a 9-6 split in favor of LSU'

I'm of the opinion that bama isn't as close to lsu as they think they are this year. Lsu wins 7/10.
Agreed.
Not to be a homer, I just honestly think special teams and depth are huge obvious advantages for LSU.
But the less obvious advantage, or at least the one talked about the least, is LSU's weapons at WR.
I just don't think McCarron and his receiving corps have the ability to attack LSU's secondary. LSU's outside weapons can at least give us the ability to challege an albeit great Bama secondary.
Everyone says Bama wasn't prepared for JJs option, which is a huge fail by the Bama coaching staff IF true, but what about that game being JJs first real action all season? He was not poised to throw the ball either. Now, we will see more of an ability to get the ball to our receivers now that JJ has had real game and practice time, the same way he did in 09 and 2010.
Bama is a great team and would win a few, pretty much only if Trent breaks off a couple of long TOUCHDOWN runs, otherwise, they can't really sustain long TD drives against our D IMO. Or if Bama's D scores TDs on turnovers which could happen.
Just my take.

I agree. 5 wins for each sounds about right to me.
For a team that hasn't one any you're very confident. If you win on 1/9 then you can lay claim to 50/50. If LSU wins 1/9 then I scoff at your 50/50 claim.
