Over the last two and a half seasons, we are 31 - 4...I repeat...31 - 4 including a Cotton Bowl victory, an SEC Championship, and a BCS National Championship berth. Are things perfect on our team right now? No. We have work to do on offense, the team plays undisciplined at times, special teams have been somewhat of a disappointment...I could pick it apart all day long if I wanted to.

Most fans around the country (and the SEC except those in Tuscaloosa) would absolutely LOVE to enjoy the success we have had. Winning on the field, recruiting elite talent year in and year out, and churning out NFL prospects. Again...is everything perfect...no. We have work to do but you cannot argue with our program's success.

As a fan base, we need to all appreciate what we have. Sure it sucks that Alabama is peaking at the same time (and peaking to a level likely never seen before in college football, and in the same division as us, etc.) but we can't control that. All WE, as fans, can control is our passion and commitment to getting behind this team week in and week out.

I am not a Sunshine Pumper. I b*tch just as much as a lot of you about the lack of production on offense. I just choose to not do it on here and would rather discuss with friends and co-workers. That said...put things into perspective. It is hard to argue with 31 - 4.

GEAUX TIGERS!!! BEAT BAMA'S ARSE!!!

Nah ... the Rant has no problem arguing that point.

Well said. I am guilty of bashing at times, but I also get beside myself when they don't perform to their potential.

While the record is 31-4, it should easily be 33-2.

I'm going to laugh for weeks if LSU beats Bama. And I think the tigers can beat them.

I think we've already peaked. That's the cause of concern for lots of fans. Sure Miles has a great record, but the team has been stagnant for years now and we're clutching on to our D for dear life to remain amongst the elite programs. Also, Bama is great, but I'd take last years LSU team with someone like Harbaugh leading them over Bama's squad every time so I disagree with the degree that you praised Bama's current program.
