re: Temper your expectations LSU

Lol

Certainly not perfect, but there were a lot of folks pulling for you a few weeks ago, maybe a little forbearance and grace could be given before putting us all in the same boat.

Lumping everyone in a given fanbase is one the things this board does best.

My gawd Tuscaloosa has murdered a man on the internet

I don’t want those guys. I want a young guy who’s proven he can win with less resources. Matt Campbell. Dude has turned a historical doormat into a tough competitor. He’s young and if he’s given the keys to a program like LSU I think he can be successful.

Damned son, you’re wrong enough to have your own sports talk show.

Geez man. I go to watch the Braves and come back to this. Lol. I’ve been wrong plenty and right plenty. I appreciate your interest in my posts though lol

Didn’t LSU have Saban before Alabama did ??

Wasn’t Saban fixing to drop Alabama like a bad habit after only 1 season at the end of the 2007 season to go back to LSU if Les Miles took the Michigan job ??

Didn’t Nick Saban say just a couple of years back that the worst mistake that he’s ever made in his coaching career was leaving LSU ??

He was already at Alabama when he said that too by the way !!

Didn’t Saban say at that same time that the LSU job was better than what the Alabama job is because of the huge instate recruiting advantage that LSU has over Alabama ??

Google it up if you doubt it !!

LSU & Alabama’s head to head win / loss record over their last 21 regular season games against each other since the 2000 season.
LSU - 10 wins & Alabama - 11 wins.

You remember when LSU was busy off becoming the first FBS football program to ever be awarded 2 BCS mythical FBS football national championships, while Alabama was off screwing around winning 2 games that very same season ??

Since the 2000 season Alabama has 5 losing seasons, while LSU has 0.

Over the last 2 completed decades since the 2000 season, LSU had the 4th highest winning percentage in the country, while Alabama only had the 5th highest over that same time period.

Number of times to be awarded both a claimed & unclaimed mythical FBS football national championship by at least one major NCAA recognized selector, in the same season in which they also won their conference championship in since the 2000 season, LSU - 4 times, 2003, 2007, 2011 & 2019, Alabama - 4 times, 2009, 2012, 2015 & 2020 ( THE COVID KINGS TEAM ).

Number of conference championships since the 2000 season, Alabama - 7, LSU - 5.

Nationally ranking in the most overall number of players to be drafted by the NFL since the 2000, LSU & Alabama tied for the 2nd most in the country behind only Ohio St.

LSU, USC, Notre Dame & Miami are the only 4 FBS football programs that’s had 4 different head coaches to be awarded a mythical FBS football national championship by at least one major wire service since the start of the poll era in 1936.

LSU, Ohio St. & Alabama are the only FBS football programs that’s been awarded a Major Wire Service ( AP, Coaches & or UPI Polls ), BCS & CFP mythical FBS football national championships.

1st time to be awarded a mythical college football national championship, LSU - 1908, awarded by The National Championship Foundation, Alabama - 1925, claimed by their own Sports Information Director Wayne Atcheson in 1983,

1st Major Wire Service awarded mythical FBS football national championship, LSU - 1958, Alabama - 1961.

1st BCS mythical FBS football national championship, LSU - 2003, Alabama - 2009.

1st CFP awarded mythical FBS football national championship, Alabama - 2015, LSU - 2019, Damn you finally got 1 Alabama.

1st Heisman Trophy winner, LSU - 1959, Billy Cannon, Alabama - 2009, Mark Ingram.

Number of NCAA vacated games over major NCAA rule violations being committed by their football programs, Alabama - 33, LSU - 0.

Numbers of times the NCAA held a formal vote as to whether or not to invoke the death penalty upon their football program over repeated major NCAA rule violations being committed by their football program, Alabama - 1, LSU - 0.

Number of major conferences of the time to win a conference football championship in, LSU - 3, SIAA, SIC & SEC, Alabama - 2, SIC & SEC. Yes, Alabama played in the SIAA too !!

Both Bobby Bowden & Rich Rodriguez told Alabama to go screw their self. Dennis Francioni dropped Alabama like a hot potato to go to Texas A&M !!

Half of the modern day NCAA rule book was written in direct response to Paul Bear Bryant’s cheating ways, by having 192 players on scholarship hid out on the swim team, golf team & etc, just to be able to keep them from being able to play against him. After picking out the best players, he then would flunk the others out of school to where he could pull the scholarships from them. That was also the direct reason for coach Bobby Dodd pulling Georgia Tech out of the SEC in 1966. Replace the hundreds of players with dozens and you have the current Alabama football program under Nick Saban, because of the unethical way he’s used the 1 year renewable athletic scholarship to cut players at a level where it’s not permitted, by just simply not renewing the scholarships of the players that he’s deemed as not. being beneficial to his personal success.

The single most laughable claim of a mythical FBS football national championship season that’s ever been made by a school, is Alabama’s claim of the 1941 season made by their own Sports Information Director Wayne Atcheson in 1983 !!

I guess you’re one of those uneducated people that actually believes Clemson is a traditional football superpower too because of your Dabo comment, right ??

Clemson only ranks as the 33rd best football program in the history of college football according to The Real Number Rankings compiled by The College Football Data Warehouse in their All-Time Team Rankings List. Yet LSU ranks 7th on that very same list !!

Just to where you’ll know, Dabo makes $8 million a year at Clemson, Lincoln Riley makes $7 million a year at Oklahoma, while Orgeron was making over $9 million a year at LSU !!

LSU is the only SEC football program that doesn’t have an All-Time losing record to any conference as a whole !!

LSU was the only SEC football program that won 200 or more games over the first 2 completed decades since the start of the 2000 season.

LSU is the only FBS football program in the country thats been awarded at least 1 mythical FBS football national championship by at least one major NCAA recognized selector in each of the 4 half decades since the start of the 2000 season, 2003, 2007, 2011 & 2019. Yes, LSU also has the rightful claim to the 2011 season just like Alabama does. Google it up if you doubt it. As a matter of fact, thats actually happened 3 times since the start of the BCS era in 1998 through today’s CFP era, 2003, 2011 & 2017.

I mean doesn’t 1 loss Alabama claim 1973 as being a split mythical FBS football national championship season with undefeated Notre Dame, even though Notre Dame was the very team that gave Alabama that loss, right ??

Well at least LSU did actually beat Alabama on Alabama’s on field and went 1-1 against them in 2011. That’s something Alabama can’t say about Notre Dame in 1973, right ??

Alabama’s own head coach Nick Saban totally screwed Oklahoma St. over on his Coaches Poll ballot during the week that the Coaches Poll would be used to help determine who would play in the BCS mythical FBS football national championship game for that season. He literally backdoored his way into a game that he was unable to win his way into. That’s the very reason why numerous different major NCAA recognized selectors awarded their individual mythical FBS football national championship to LSU over Alabama for the 2011 season !!

I see you got into the good meth tonight
