Beating Alabama is a very big deal for EVERY SEC team, and the most important thing for a couple of schools (LSU & Auburn)


It isn't very important to LSU, we barely even try

Georgia has stolen their football crown

Alabama is 5–2 in the last 5 years, 3–2 over the last 5 games, and Kalen DeBoer is 2–1 at Alabama vs Georgia.

Georgia hasn't won a CFP game in 3 years.

Kirby Smart will likely retire with an all-time losing record vs. Alabama.

Georgia is coming off a title run like 2015–2020 Clemson. What they don't realize yet is that they're starting the next one like 2021–2025 Clemson.

Bama's starting to dwindle to 3-5th best in the conference if things continue as is, considering how the conference got exposed in the playoff last season except for Ole Miss, that's not great. Texas is bringing in a stacked roster, Georgia might be really good again to the level they were last season, LSU signed arguably the greatest and most stacked portal class in history and Alabama has Ryan Grubb, the guy who's allergic to running the football

Alabama lost to the eventual national champions. EVERY other SEC playoff team lost to a team WORSE than the team Alabama lost to. Your perception and lolsu logic are pathetic.

On3 didn’t even rank LSU’s class as the greatest this season. For the second year in a row On3 ranked them #2.

LSU has already proven they can take a #1 ranked portal class and turn it into 7-6.

We ain’t all that, either. The waters of the SEC are a bit murky these days.

That is some fun with math. More fun with math…

Georgia has finished ranked ahead of Alabama in each of the last 5 years, Georgia has the same number of national championships as Alabama has CFP wins, and Georgia lost 2 games last season by a combined 6 points, while Alabama lost 4 games last season by 70 something points.

Georgia has won the SEC's last 2 national championships.

Georgia will start this next season in the top 5 and will have its most veteran team since 2022. What Alabama probably will do is start the season ranked outside of the top 10 and hope that a bunch of mystery portal players can magically do better than all that talent they had last season.

Alabama fans used to tell us that it's all about national championships. But now it's all about who you lose to in the second round of the playoffs.

Alabama could be dog shite for the next 30 years and not lose its grip as the SEC’s all time leader in all things football

We’d still be beating LSU and this place would still be losing its mind if we went 3-9 every year

Alabama football IS the SEC, yall are along for the ride, especially fricking Ole Miss 55-10

Contrast LSU’s offensive coaching staff and head coach last year to this year’s then get back to me, enjoy having Ryan Grubb coach your offense
