I was at the LSU game last night. Watching UK-KU to see how we’d compare. Athletically I think we’re right there but man we just don't shoot the jump shot like these teams. This has been fun to watch.

If Georgia does not blow it against Ole Miss last year, then he (along with plenty of others) are playing for LSU right now. LSU probably has one loss at most, and Ole Miss is trying to make a bowl game at 6-6.

The summer after Saban retired, I was passing through Tuscaloosa and decided to stop off and walk around the perimeter of the stadium. I was thinking after the 15 year dynasty, all that money pouring in, the mecca of college football would be in pristine condition. But it was disappointing. The streets, sidewalks, and landscaping looked like it needed some TLC. And I always say that about the outside of Tiger Stadium, but I think theirs was worse.

I think its a mental thing with LSU...There have been several times I've felt they had the better team at Death Valley and they still lost. Sometimes in fantastic fashion....Not sure what that is.

Absolutely.

After we went up 13-10, the next Bama drive was the loudest I've heard it in at least 10 years. The last thing I expected was the balloon getting popped like the Yeldon screen.. in the back of your mind you're like it's a new era, Saban's retired, we've finally got a smart coach, we're winning, we're at home.. 2 minutes later, Bama TD :banghead: what a turn of events man.

But in the end, the Bama players expect to execute there. Not gonna lie, it's impressive.

Despite the yardage disparity in favor of LSU, every time a critical play came up, Bama made the play and we didn't. A very familiar feeling as an LSU fan.. Bama just has the mental edge on us.

It reminded me of the LSU-Arkansas baseball series. At times it feels effortless as an LSU fan, like no matter how good Arkansas is, no matter how many pro prospects they have, you can feel them tense up in the clutch when they play us.

I'm guessing that's what Bama football fans feel like watching their team play LSU :dunno:

Hell, I could start a thread about how LSU's all time record vs. Sewanee is 3-6. But what would be the fricking point? It would be about as significant as the point of your thread...which is not very much.

I LOVE threads like this.

This guy gets it
Most SEC fans don't realize that LSU went 9-3 vs. Bama from 2000-2011.



Now you might say, why are you cherry picking just those 12 seasons? And there's a good answer to that. Because it's my thread and that's what I want to do.

Here's to a good game when toe meets ball in 29 hours :cheers:

I quit watching after the Yeldon screen. Haven't watched the Bama game since...

That’s more than a bubble team. That’s a 2nd weekend team if everyone stays eligible all year and is able to build chemistry.

That would be great. Just give me a reason to check KenPom and read Jon Rothstein in February and I'm ecstatic.

Sounds like a bubble team, and you know what? After the MM era, I'm ok with that.

Just having fun :lol:

This is what I need the LSU QB's parents to look like
#goodstock
He would drive around BR neighborhoods and if he saw a basketball goal in the driveway he'd give the owners a purple & gold net. Just a true visionary as a promoter and outside-the-box thinker.

It was awesome. I think it was something like $20 an hour so I just bought 5 training sessions for $100. Went from 950 ELO to 1200. The biggest improvement was not panicking when someone was going all in and I was booming. He probably charges no less than $100/hr now lol

Awesome. I've learned a good bit from his videos, especially with build orders. I still get tunnel vision too often and don't see things that look obvious in hindsight.
