re: CFN: LSU vs Alabama Roundtable

Reply to author:

First of all, I guess you are just trying to rile up LSU fans? Because clearly you have not been paying attention to recent history in this series, nor LSU’s roster, are you only looking at the last game?

Have you forgotten that LSU has won two straight “Seasons” over Alabama in the middle of their so called dynasty run? And LSU hosts Alabama this year with a better team?

The Patrick Peterson interception game( 4 games ago) was a game that is debatable in my mind, being that LSU led that entire game leading into the 4th (another game at Bama. Better than LSU you say? hmmmm

I predicted LSU would beat Alabama 3 straight “Seasons” 2 years ago, and LSU will win this year in Baton Rouge. I like being right... I am very confident this year. We want blood after the last game. LSU beat everyone by 2 TD’s (Except Alabama) last year on their challenging schedule…with a team stockpiled full of sophomores…(Go look how many ranked teams LSU beat last year)

Moreover, LSU has won 9 of the last 12 meetings against Alabama….That’s impressive numbers, go look it up!

Miles is 3-3 against Nick Saban...and to be honest, most CFB's didn't want to see an SEC rematch in the National Championship game...It shouldn’t have been played..

Alabama at the time was 11-1 eating popcorn as 2nd place finisher in the West Division while LSU finished 13-0 beating UGA in the SECCG. As a fan, it just felt wrong BAMA got a rematch. I don’t care how ugly people say game 1 might have been…We won the game….

LSU went undefeated and deserved to escape any SEC foe in the National Championship game since there is not a playoff system.

No one will change my mind on that one. OSU deserved a shot at LSU. Bama was 1-1 against LSU last year and neither of those two game were in Tiger Stadium.

Regarding recruiting, certainly, Alabama has had great classes every single year NICK has been there,( a good judge of talent but rankings are for fans,) Example Mo Claiborne was a 2 star and ended up a top 5 NFL pick…. LSU has 45 NFL players which is 1st or 2nd of all NCAA schools….for 2012…

Alabama isn’t in the top 5 per the stats I am looking at…..though they are climbing… The point? LSU delivers a lot of NFL talent…recruiting rankings are just rankings…


LSU will have 3 more Jr’s in the secondary that will be highly drafted…Eric Reid, TM7 and Simon….All 3 are all SEC…TM was a Heisman candidate..Where do you get drop off? You know nothing about LSU’s depth..

LSU’s depth rivals any top team in the country and why they are preseason #1 by many. LSU DL will not miss a beat…The OL is massive and better, 6 Running backs and a 265 pound converted DL to fullback…..the LB’s will be better and the DB’s are extremely talented and confident. I don't think you are educated about LSU if you think LSU has dropped off in the secondary. And yes Zack M. has NFL talent.

Bottom line, LSU will be better in 2012...and that's a scary thought for most teams

Special teams:

Brad Wing is the best punter in the NCAA…and we have a darn good FG kicker..

Get your facts together before you talk junk about my Tigers…Until something changes, LSU is still the Daddy of the SEC. But Tide fans would laugh at that….but number of victories against the tide do not lie over the last 12 years....They enjoyed a good laugh on 1/9, that will change Nov 3rd



If all goes well, this will be Miles 4th trip to the SECCG in 8 seasons! Tip the hat! That's strong!
