We don't have a 2 minute offense.
Hell, we didn't have a passing game until we played Bama, home of the DB coach extraordinaire.
AJ wasn't facing soft coverage. He was facing 2 deep safeties, with 1 starting safety on the bench, one corner in tight, and the freshmen corner playing ten yards off and backpedaling on the snap.
On the decisive play, we sent our freshman nickel, and he got duped. That left our weakest coverage safety one on one with a great athlete.
If LSU stays in the same coverage they used outside of the last drives of each half, Mett's last drive is kneeling down, and the dozens of Bama fans that passed in front of me for the exits would have had good reason to leave early.

I have said all along that we would lose a game.

Dumb dumb dumb..... AJ had damn near 2 min and Mett had less than 50 seconds.
That's correct. What I meant was A.J. took less time to lead a TD drive than Mett had left for his drive.
Hill not realizing a first down would have stopped the clock instead trying to get out of bounds was also critical.
I guess no one wants to address why LSU's "Soft" coverage was so easy for AJ to exploit but BAMA's "Soft" coverage befuddled Mett?

Mett's teamates and coaching staff quit on him when Bama scored.

A win's not enough - you want fellatio AND your balls tickled while recalling the game?
Seriously - you posted this shite?
Your team and your QB are fantastic. Does it make you feel better shitting on ours?
Agreed - not that I don't like fellatio while given sack attention, but if you are lucky enough to get laid with the prom queen because she is giving you a sympathy lay you don't ask to finish on her face.

Check the tiger rant. I think you will find plenty of LSU fans still starting threads about it. It's just Monday. You and that MScoasttigerchick need to rub some salve on it.

Yeah, I couldn't believe it.
There was actually an LSU fan stopping them to let them know it wasn't over. Yet, they continued on. Most were elderly.
I have to admit, I let myself believe it was over. If the kick is good, we got it, I said to myself.
I know they knew how it felt. I was in Tuscaloosa last year. When I said see you in N.O., they didn't want to hear it, and said no way.
We won't get that chance here. And I'm OK with that. Something about the way we dominated this game feels much better than the scoreboard in Tuscaloosa last year.

You see 6inmylifetime, even though we now know that there is really no such thing as "time", as space and time are one in the same, it still proves useful to view time in the traditional linear sense when dealing with relatively short and small events.
When viewing the final minutes of the game the fact that LSU possessed the ball after Alabama meant that Mettenburger had less time than AJ in which to complete the drive because LSU's possession occurred closer to when the clock read 0:00, signaling the end of the game.
It could prove helpful to create yourself a visual aid. Draw a straight line across a piece of paper. Make three marks on the line, one at the beginning, one in the middle, and one at the end. The one at the beginning represents Alabama's final possession, the middle represents LSU's, and the final dot represents the end of the game. Distance from one dot to the final dot represents the amount of time between the two events. It will now become obvious that Mettenburger had less time than AJ in which to complete his final drive.
And no folding that piece of paper and pulling no wormhole shite either. That's cheating.

This guy is presuming there was soft coverage anywhere. He wants people to respond to the responses of people that don't know what the hell they're talking about.
Mett looked better than McCarron for all but 86 seconds in this game, and Mett had three freshman on the OL, while McCarron had 3 guys that will be playing on Sundays next year.
I guess he's saying LSU's defense is better than Bama's. All I can figure.

Why do bama fans get even dumber after wins?

Yeah, but McCarron had to go against LSU's defense and Mett didn't. Bama's wasn't quite all it was cracked up to be.
