re: Which LSU sec ranter has melted the hardest?

The refs did everything they could to keep Bama out of the endzone in OT. We scored anyways. At least look at both sides if you are going to blame the refs.

Oh, that was a BS call too. Refs were consistently terrible all night.

see this is why you can't have logical discussions with SOME Alabama fans. To say LSU did not dominate the second half is a joke. With 50 seconds to go in the game, Alabama had a total of 32 yards and 1 first down in the second half. LSU had approx. 180 yards and 12 first downs. I don't even think the biggest bama trolls can argue that, if being honest.

You took control of the 2nd half for sure. If you had a decent offense to go along with that tough defense, the game would have been easily in hand. That was a helluva performance by LSU's D. But it's a stretch to say LSU dominated the whole game, which is what was being said. You can't really "dominate" a whole game when you go into the half down by 3.

If you want to be in consideration just say so, don't subtle melt yourself into the running. That won't win you any favor in the contest.

huh?

Alabama did what it had to do when given the chance...no doubt. I don't see where anything I said was wrong....LSU did dominate the second half, and to bama's credit they hung around until they got an opportunity...and took it. Trust me....I'm over here because our fanbase is absolutely pathetic today.

Tell me though, early in the year you guys were making fun of LF when he had a slow start....is this still your opinion? I think he is going to be an absolute beast in the making.

I said they dominated the second half. They also dominated the first quarter, but got dominated in the second quarter...washing the first half. Even with the offense they had, they still could have put this thing away...they were running on bama a lot more than bama was running on them.

Oh, and hell, LSU dominated the Ole Miss game as well....but could have easily lost with all the turnovers....it can happen....and has. Going into the game, I thought the LSU D was actually better than Bama's (complete turnaround since the emergence of beckwith) and that the LSU OL was better than bama's.....and rb's were a wash...all of that appeared to be true....wasn't enough.

I would love to hear more of this "logic" you speak of...

Hey Eddie---ya think someone can make a gif with Trey and "Split Open and Melt"?

Melt-------split open and Melt....

I mean not like refs can affect a game and lead to a team scoring less points than someone else.

Each team has a chance to score on every possession. You can't make a sane argument that they (the refs) are the reason why LSU didn't score on each of their possessions. So, even if I we conceded that the refs were favoring Bama (which would be ludicrous in the first place), that still wouldn't explain LSU's failure to score on 15 of their 18 possessions.

Plus, here are the game stats (which do not support the claim that the refs were favoring Bama).
1. LSU got more first downs than Bama;
2. There were no first downs awarded by penalty, so you can't say the refs kept drives going by awarding first down penalties;
3. Bama had more penalty yards than LSU;
4. Bama was the only team to lose a fumble;
5. LSU scored every time they were in the red zone;
6. LSU had the ball for 17 minutes more than Bama;
7. LSU ran more twelve more plays the Bama;
8. Bama was more efficient, however. A yard more per play, three times as many passing yards, and a better punting game.
9. And don't forget the pass interference committed by LSU early on that wasn't called. That would have been an Alabama touchdown, which would have put ahead and none of the rest of this would be an issue. Point is, LSU had a chance to win and they didn't take advantage of it.

Here's the unsportsmanlike conduct case that Miles says changed the game. Don't see how you can say that was the wrong call. Vidal clearly shoves the Alabama player.



Here's the final play. You see contact between both Dupre and Jones. The ball hits the defender's helmet and bounces before the other defender makes contact with Dupre. Again, the refs made the correct no-call. The video shows that Dupre's claim that Jones had both his hands is pure bullshite.



Even if Dupre had caught it, they should have called holding on the left tackle and guard.
