these "bama fans" can't tell you anything about bama pre-2007. Matter of fact, in 2008 Walmart saw a hugh increase in sale in all their alabama locations. Online sales of bama gear has quadrupled as well, since 75% of of bama fans are just looking to be "the cool kid" per say.

Anyone who was there, what happened?



Well Bear Bryant at the top of his game was there so that explains some of it.

I’m surprised honestly. Despite recent road woes, Alabama plays WAAAAAAAAY better in whites than they do the crimsons on average, even in a loss. That’s been a trend even before Nick for some reason. But I guess that doesn’t matter in Baton Rouge. It’s like a reverse Jordan Hare. All our bullshite luck goes into that stadium and then all the bad shite happens in Auburn.

From 1969-2000 LSU won 5 games in Baton Rouge. That's really bad on your home field.


From 1991-2022 (same amount of time) Alabama has only beaten LSU 7 times in Tuscaloosa. That’s not much better.

I've always been curious about why Dietzel left LSU for Army. He won a NC at LSU and was 10-1 his last season in BR. And he left for Army?


Well he served in WW2 and was an assistant at Army on two different occasions. Post-WW2 Army was a powerhouse under Blaik but had taken a bit of a downturn after he retired. And when the position came open maybe Dietzel felt he had a duty to get them back on track.

It’s like the Red Sox and Yankees, just can’t be explained
