That's not good. The second best team was more than Bama could handle at home.

I honestly don't mind being the second best team to beam Bama this year


And we are going to "beam" them so hard they won't be able to walk straight for a month.

LSU did it first, but hey that is fine.

I like how Nick Saban admits a 4-loss team will be his team’s toughest game of the season.

So what Saban is trying to do is tell the gumps that Bama is going to have two losses this year because apparently the 2nd best team the gumps have faced kicked their arse!

To be fair, he didn't say who the second best team on Bama's schedule is. Maybe he thinks it's Duke or Aggy.

I'm okay with Saban getting his team up for the game and sticking it to LSU at the same time. I'll lose a little sleep over this, but not much.

Even he doesn't believe that.

That's called trying to create some drama so the Committee will think America is clamoring for a rematch.

Coach speak is coach speak.

Anyone offended by coach speak is a snowflake.

I guess that means Alabama has another L coming if true.

I don't think that word means what you think it means...but I don't remember Sabin making excuses pre-Auburn EVER before.

Cuz "this is the best team we've played" is an excuse.

Saban on Auburn: "This is the best team we've played, probably, so far this year."


Well this is a cryptic statement. My thinking, this is what you all coach speak. From an LSU fan perspective, the Iron Bowl is the best SEC Rivalry game, Period!. It is a rival game on every metric you use, 1) Schools share the same state, 2) Alums, 3) Administrators, 4) Coaches and players, 5) former coaches and players, 6) in-state media, etc, etc, etc.

So what if Saban says this is a good team, but not the best team we have played. He said probably, and it also is a typical Saban lobbying effort since this is the last game his team will not be playing 7 December.

That is what I take from his statement.

Well...

You definitely don't deserve to be in the playoffs if you lost to a team (LSU) that wasn't "the best team we've played". So, I'd say win or lose, Bama is out.
