If 2007 never happened....

For the love of god, please stop referring to yourself in the 3rd person. You sound like a complete idiot.

Truly awful post. And I mean that in the very best way.

we didn't back our WAY into a BCS title

everyone below us from a major conference had 2-losses. We didn't back our way in. We won the SEC and won our way in. Backing your way in would be like placing second in the SECW and avoiding having to play any championship game, having the same record as other major conference champions who played tougher schedules and still getting in the game. That's backing in. We didn't back in.

if around 6 teams hadn't lost in the final 2 weeks in '03 then LSU fans wouldn't still be giving Saban a reach around

And what if bama doesn't back their way into last years game? We play okie state crush them and go undefeated? How would people feel then? We can play this both ways all day.

ETA:
Adam Banks OUT!!

So your point is?

What if 2003 didn't happen? that was not without some favorable upsets or controversy.

What if 2011 played out as it should have?

Or 2012 played out a little different and we made a tackle in the last 1:34 of the game

Maybe Miles would have none---or maybe he would have 2 and there would be no "dynasty".

Remember the "Three-Pete Dynasty" cira 2003 2004 2005---sometimes it is just 'spin' but when the cover is peeled back not everything was truely earned or deserving.

Who has been "scapegoated"? Jimbo? GC?

The "backed" our way into a title argument is dumb. Was 2007 a fluke in college football? Sure. But at the end of the season we were clearly the best team in college football.

The same can be said last year. Was Bama getting into the championship game a fluke? Absolutely. Were they clearly better than us and deserving of the title? Looks like they were.

Casty:

First off, if LSU doesnt go, another 2 loss team is in. So just stop with this bullshite. We were the best team that year just like bama was last year after backing in. We still went out and won the sec championship on the last weekend. that is not backing in.


Also if we hadnt won in 2007, the fanbase actually may not be as bad. With that win came higher expectations from this program and from the coaching staff.
