Alabama 2011 is the epitome of screw jobs.

This. Nothing else really approaches it. Fixed game. The infamous OU-Oregon game occurred the same day. Worst day in history of NCAA officiating.

Tennesse basketball when the clock started 4 seconds too late and allowed them to score the winning basket as time expired. Don Devoe was a prick to run his team off the court while the refs were looking at video. Pisses me off to this day. Not really. I have a life.

I don't sweat the PP INT call too much bc as bad as our offense was it wouldve just been another 3 and out.

i don't either. we were done that game once jefferson and scott went out. lee had been horrible up to that point in that game. it also didn't help peterson was out with cramps on the julio touchdown. but we didn't get screwed really because we weren't doing anything to convince anyone we'd have been able to drive 60 yards for a TD. it was a terrible call and bull shite we didn't get a chance to score, but it's not like we had a sure win taken from us

This by far and that's saying alot. RackaShaq and Peterson's non-interception are close seconds.

UT loss in 59 kept us from winning 2 in a row.
I talked to Dr. Cannon not long ago and he assured me he was across the goal which would have given LSU the win but was ruled short.

To repeat: We beat Alabama in their own stadium. We went on to win the division and then the conference away from home against yet another Top 10 team. Alabama was rewarded for losing to us, for being the 2nd best team out of 6 over a 12-game sample size, by receiving a bye week to scout us in the SECCG. Holy. fricking. shite. The villains in sports movies don't get that kind of treatment. It's still astounding to me that ESPN and the BCS not only allowed this to happen, but encouraged it all along. Anyone with any rational sense of logic and fairness should be insulted by a team getting a fricking do-over in the national championship game. It's the #1 screw job in LSU history, and it should go down as one of the worst in any sport for any team, ever.

I'm laughing because if I were watching a movie and the same scenario occurred, I would absolutely ask wtf? Seriously, it's like watch this great team go through the season unscathed, including beating the #2 team from their own division at their house. Then boom, playing them again? How the hell would that happen without a playoff?
