If this isn't a "hate Les thread", it's a hell of an impersonation of one!
You acknowledge that he "eventually" went on to win a NC....It was his 3rd year, hardly an eternity for a program.
Then you throw in a couple of "yadda yadda's", just out of respect for the man...I guess?
And then you emphasize that it was done with a "2 LOSS" team! So the frick what? LSU's been playing football for 120+ years and has managed to accumulate a total of 3 National Championships, you would think the fan base wouldn't feel the need to nit-pick any of those.
Colorado got to and won a National Championship by being given 5 downs to win a game...Do their fans always bring that up and discredit their title?
Question...How often do you hear Bama fans minimize the worth of their 2011 NC? Do they comment that Saban did it in a year that he didn't even win the SEC West and didn't even play in the conference championship game? Or the fact that they had to have a second chance against an LSU team who had beat them in their own house???
NO...You never hear it!
But for some reason, there's a certain segment of LSU fans that can't apologize quick enough because we won a title with a two loss team.

Yet they were still a 1 LOSS team and STOMPED the team that beat them.
We were lucky and you know it, it is what it is.

quote:One more thing - maybe if we must devalue and ridicule the 2 loss MNC in '07, we also need to reevaluate the legitimacy of Saban's 2003 MNC, because it was a split title with the AP awarding the #1 status to USC that year, regardless of LSU beating Oklahoma for the Crystal Football. Besides, LSU was a one loss team that year, having lost to Florida. Tainted title.

Please recognize I am not advocating we devalue either title. I am simply astounded by the bitter people calling themselves Tiger fans who do.
