Where they're vastly different is this pervasive belief the conference is utterly corrupt and conspires against them. It permeates their entire fan culture.


It really does. They are perpetual victims. It's absolutely never their fault.

I think my suggestion that LSU considers moving to the Big 12 was a good one.

Well I'm not asking them why they continue to watch. I understand the psychology of why they keep doing it.

What I want to know now is where it all began? How did they come to this paranoid belief system?

They would certainly a little more competitive there but I wonder. Would they bring their victim culture with them?

They thought they had finally discovered football when Nick put them on the map. Only to get left at the alter when he saw they had reached their ceiling.

Once Bama hired Nick, the schizophrenia began surfacing. 2011 is when they fully separated from reality for the last time. It's been 12 years of madness ever since.

It would just shift to the cheating DFW area refs.

They are the Ms Havisham of college football, aren't they.

That's an interesting starting point but I've talked to friends who say they've always felt the SEC has treated LSU unfairly. Maybe it goes back further.


Again, Kelly is entitled to his opinion but this year after year after year after year of we got screwed by the SEC is old and tired.
A great point being made by the local radio guys in Huntsville last week, that I've been saying, is OK fine that you feel the SEC is out to tilt the field towards Bama when LSU plays them. Fine, you can have your opinion but do not get on tv and talk about how you love playing Bama, how it's such a great game for football, how these two teams need to play every year. No, get on TV and say we feel we get cheated every year, we'd like a more equitable opponent and stand behind your comments of unfairness and Bama favoritism...if you really believe it stand behind it. Don't talk out of both sides of your mouth.
As one radio guy put it I'd love to see the SEC when asked to explain why the LSU-Bama series won't be an annual event would be to say, over the years, we have received hundreds of complaints that the game was always tilted in Bama's favor so in order to make sure our members feel conmfortable being in the SEC we decided we would take the perceived advantage away from Bama and give LSU a yearly opponent that they would feel they could play that would be unbiased and everyone can feel like they are playing on equal ground and LSU gets a break from the yearly screw job they get. He then said it wasn't the whining from the hit this year but going back to basically Saban taking the job and the whining and the crying and billboards that happens every single year but I do not want to hear the BS from LSU about how great the Bama game is when you are gonna turn around and say we get screwed every year that we lose.

Thank you for saying this and I'm sure the SEC has had about enough too. It's time for a break and for LSU to play games where they aren't beaten by the league office. I, as well believe in sportsmanship and fairness and LSU should not have to be subjected to Bama bias every year.

We've gotten rid of divisions. To your point, this would've been the perfect time for LSU and Scott Woodward to say we no longer want to be Bama's permanent rival. We feel unfairly treated in this.

I wonder if they did? If I believed corrupt forces were working against my athletic department, I would've certainly taken this opportunity to address it or get out of thew game entirely.

Seems to me, LSU craves this victimization.

When Napoleon decided to invade Russia.

Absolute decimation of any sort of masculine mindset. They’ve been victims ever since.

Maybe that's it. I can't explain it. There's a culture of collectively hanging from the cross in this state. We're talking about LSU here but it really goes deeper than that.

At this point, the bigger question is what is your obsession with us? You’re this concerned on a Sunday. You may need some help. Seriously. Like really. This isn’t healthy.
