re: In terms of the fanbase's hatred, is Bama on the level of USC circa 2003?

And it would have been a interesting game, but I can't say that LSU would have beaten them like you are.

That defense of LSU'S was some impressive that year and I think Saban would have come up with a plan to stop USC just like he did OU. But, I will say as far as a coaching matchup that year. Pete over Bob by a mile. Football is a game of matchups and a lot of lucky bounces. I will step back and say LSU may not have beaten USC rather easy, and say I still think they would win.


But back to the hating part. I am not the type to get all caught up in hating another team. I respect programs that are real good at what they do on a consistant basis.
