Every fan base (look at the Saints game threads) does especially when their team loses, its just that LSU fans seem do it way more.
LSU does, in fact, do it way more than anyone else. The fans I know in person are the same way. If you replace Auburn with Alabama, and Alabama with LSU in that game Saturday, I assure you they would be melting the frick right down about how it was called. It's a fascinating topic though, fan perception of ref bias.

It is because we been so dominant that it is making the SEC look bad like a bad conference and now they are trying to make it look like other teams are good so the conference looks good. They are calling it to even things out for a while because we been so good that we got alot a haters.

Every fanbase complains about the refs. Its just that LSU fans never lose to Bama unless its the refs. I mean their radio hosts spout conspiracy theories about it. Oh wait Auburn radio hosts do as well, forgot about Stan.
When ONE fanbase complains its a conspiracy.
When they ALL complain its the truth.
You think LSU is the only team to call out Gumps ref bias?
Where theres smoke theres fire.

The refs don't help the gumps, that's just silly.
Next thing you'll tell me is a plant in the review booth will negate a 20-yd snap-fu by counting 12 defenders on the field DURING the review.
That'll be the day.

The Gumps Are SO Used to Getting the Benefit That When the Game is Called Fairly By a Non-SEC Crew, They Think They Are Being Cheated. TLDR: Gump Players Think Refs Are Bias Too
Gump Bias - Multiple Examples
FBS Head Coach Calling Out Gump Bias - Refuses to Ever Play Gumps Again
Head of SEC Officiating: Steve Shaw - Alabama Grad
Head Referee: Steve Smith - Former Alabama QB
Executive Associate Commissioner/CFO: Mark Womack - Alabama Grad
Associate Commissioner/Finance: Chris Waldsmith - Alabama Grad
Assistant Commissioner (Championships): Leslie Claybrook - Alabama Grad
Director of Video and Creative Services: B.C. Romano - Alabama
Director of Communications: Tammy Wilson - Alabama Grad
Assistant Commissioner (Legislative Services): Gil Grimes - Alabama Grad
Assistant Director, SECU: Bryant Welbourne - Alabama Grad
Cant make this shite up!
Do the powers in SECHQ know there are 13 other Universities they can hire people from?

My refs sucks rant:
That 4th and 9 20 yard snap was a huge messup by the officials. I think players not set before the snap should be reviewable. LSU-Auburn 2016 should have been called if they had snapped it in time, and it should have be called in this game. It wasn't even close in this game.

25% of the 12 issues addressed... That's weak.
And if we're going to review your weak attempt, you can really only call him out on 1 of the 12 things being completely wrong. The other two you mention have nothing to do with it. Just because they've "never called a Bama game" doesn't mean they can't influence the on-field calls.

It probably should be reviewable, but it's currently not reviewable.

I think many of them suck, but they aren't biased. They just suck and make mistakes.

Theres that and its more common than it should be but theres also implicit or conscious bias.

If reading wasn’t so difficult for you, you’d have noticed that he edited his post after I addressed his original post. I addressed 100% of his original post.
