It's not tough to get your guys up to play LSU

We're one of the top 2-3 programs in the entire country over the last decade

Everyone brings their A-game when the best in the business comes to town. If you don't crush teams early they'll keep up that level of intensity.

This. Wonder why USC has a big fat target on them? This. Wonder why Notre Dame is undefeated? They were so bad for so long that nobody cared anymore.

Hard to stay at the top of the ladder. Someone is ALWAYS trying to pull you down.

Case in point: Tim Brando said at the start of the game yesterday that the atmosphere in the stadium was like a bowl game for Arkansas.

Interesting theory. So I guess when Alabama hung 50 points on their sorry asses, Johnelle told them to "save it for LSU"? Color me sarcastically skeptical.

Bama has no problem curb stomping, pistol whipping and in general crushing the hopes of outmanned and outgunned opponents. Said opponents look nowhere near as competitive.

All I see here is an excuse that isn't applicable when you compare LSU to its only current peer program in our conference.

Last year LSU rolled everyone
This year has been more of a challenge
Injuries, new QB, reshuffled OL before most difficult part of schedule
MSU, Ole Miss and Ark want nothing more than to beat LSU and after Bama game this team could have mailed it in and didn't
LSU has been in every game and hasn't gotten blown out going all the way back to 2008 season
