LSU vs Gumps Reality

It sucks that CRob chose to play there. It is no slight against our leadership. Im puzzled by some of the media people that I hear buying into the misconception that they are so far ahead of everyone else. Its just not reality.
The reality is we beat them on their field 2 yrs ago and they get a "bye" for losing at home and we play the extra game against Georgia in the SEC championship. They sit at home and scout how the Ga 3-4 Defense prepared for us. What a lucky break or a bunch of crap. However u choose to look at it.
Last year John Chavis' defense completely dominated their offense with their three 1st round OL and a NFL RB and QB. Studwara's offense rolled up a ton of yardage and dominated the time of possession. We were running off tackle on 3rd and 5 and getting it easily. The next week A&M beats them on their home field. They dont get to play us, A&M or Oregon. They get ND, who wouldve had their hands full with Ole Miss last year.
Add in the biased scheduling and the perfect storm has LSU on the outside looking in. At least on any station I watch or listen to.
They home grow 3 str8 NFL QB's and La didnt produce any and we still had the better of it head to head.
Its not recruiting that matters, its evaluating the talent that counts and the Tigers do that better than anyone. Our coaches take a back seat to no one. And isnt it convenient when the schedule finally gets somewhat fair, it just so happens the playoff system goes in effect at the same time?

Absolutely no doubt. They can try and throw every advantage their way and it won't matter, Tigers will prevail and Les and company will have their/our way. Couldn't be happier with our football, baseball, track and basketball programs, Geaux Tigers

LSU will end up with some of the best recruits in the nation when this recruiting season is over, no doubt about it.
The best part: They want to be Tigers and represent the best damn football program in the country.
That's Loyalty.

Well written! I agree that LSU is 2nd to none in college football over the past decade in both entertainment and competiveness. It's been a joy watching LSU over the past 10 years (or every year for that matter) and knowing that they may not win every game but they will be IN every game. That's o.k. We'll get our just rewards for consistent excellence when all is said and done. We are the best (2nd best according to the record books) college team to watch and enjoy. Being on the field representing LSU (especially from in-state athletes) is a priviledge.

So good to hear this pointed out by someone else. The Georgia defensive coordinator, Todd Grantham, worked for Saban. Saban likely got detailed notes.

So media perception is not reality? And that puzzles you? Have you been in a coma for 50 years?

Bama's dominate OL is gone from last year, and next year, their dominate QB will be gone.
Your LSU Tigers should be the clear favorite in the SEC West next year.
This year looks like a toss up between Bama and LSU in November, but then again, Bama's cupcake shedule will likely win them another SEC West title.

when we consistently show our offense is better than it has been in years past and we beat bama CRob will start questioning his decision because it looks like we're finally getting out of the quarterback doldrums. we have some mighty fine looking ones there now as well as in the upcoming recruiting class. and hopefully coach cameron will coach them up. there's a wide spread feeling the only thing missing from additional championships from years past have been below average quarterback play. looks like that's about to end. we'll have no excuse then.

Have you lost your mind? How do you figure that LSU has better coaches? They have not produced a successful NFL Qb in years. To be blunt the reason Robinson chose to play at Bama is he knows that he will be a pro player in 3-4 years and that he could go to any SEC school and be a future 1st rounder...BUT to have the absolute best chance to play for a National CHampionship is at Alabama right now. They have the best coach in the last forever in college football. Hell he took LSU from being mediocre to a NC in no time. The only reason this team is any good today is because of what he started. Saban also took Bama from a team that could not beat ULM in Monroe to a NC in 2 years. Great players can go to the NFL at any major school but if they want a NC ring then the best shot is in Tuscaloosa and not Baton Rouge.
