Was going to make Derogatory comment about LSU but Wolfhound is my Buddy and I will refrain at this point.

Me and Wolfhound pulled LSU to Victory over Florida this year during shoegate. Check the ingame thread.

What’s the derivation of your user name? I would have thought a Bama fan would stay away from orange due to its association with Tennessee.

If either team fell into the cellar for a while, it wouldn't be a rivalry. They're just rivals due to circumstance currently

No you’re not.

If, when I go back and visit friends in Alabama during football season, and any of them start to talk about LSU, I may get think about moving them from “opponent”to “important opponent.”

But truth is, almost no one in Alabama talks about LSU except during game week. Given that LUSers talk about Alabama 24/7/365, it is hard for them to comprehend that they just aren’t very important to Alabama.... but it’s true.

I’ve had young LUSers try to tell me that LSU has replaced Tennessee, etc. but most of them have never even been to Alabama, never talked football in Alabama... and given the state of public school education in LA., most couldn’t find Alabama on the map. Hell... most LUSers don’t know that Alabama is a bigger State, or that Birmingham SMA is as big as New Orleans. That’s how cloistered most people in LaLaLsuLand are.

Oh well.... Oz is a strange place too...

Ya know... Bama has a long storied football history of success and I truly tip my hat to that..

But given the fact that Bama's bye week has been prior to the LSU game every year since Saban has been your coach makes this statement idiotic!

I felt like I was reading biased CNN tweets when reading your game summaries.

Is 1-9 consistency?

Well, I mean, I guess it is being consistent in SOMETHING... just not what you think it is.

One thing is for sure.

Alabama fans made 5:1 topics about LSU as Auburn on the Score Board during the freaking Iron Bowl.

Anyone who was here that day knows that's the truth if they're honest with themselves.

But it only happens here and it's mostly due to all the LSU fans on this site who talk trash. It's not really about Alabama vs LSU for those people, it's just about them trying to troll each other and other stupid shite.

C’mon sidewalk... that’s in Louisiana... and that illustrates one of the reason LUSers are so certain that Alabama is their big rival... LUSers only talk to or listen to each other. Just like that fool who thinks a standard 7th game bye week somehow signals an obsession with LSU, you a clutching at straws to judge the wide body of Alabama fan interest by posts this board ... well what do you think you will get in here when Tr and SECr are chock full of LUSers obsessed with Alabama.

Well go ahead and imagine LSU’s importance. They are usually a decent team, but historically they just aren’t much more than a good tough win. I’ll give you this... I moved down here 38 years ago and the LSU game has slowly become more important to me... just so I don’t have to hear outlandish crap on the golf course for a couple of weeks.

So at least you have THAT going for you...

The only rivalry I see in this thread is you versus an intelligent thought.

You're losing.

I wish we were Tennessee cross div rival.

That one guaranteed win can be the difference between the orange bowl and the music city bowl in some years.
