It always hurts to lose. But this loss felt much better than some. I never expected we would dominate like that. I thought only by luck or by BAMA's choking (like last year) would we win. Now my perspective has changed. We were without a doubt the best team on that field last night. And we were by far the youngest. I doubt we have ever had as many freshmen on any starting team, yet we dominated the #1 ranked team in the nation. I want to feel worse than I feel, but I cant.

I banged my GF early this morning out of anger from the game last night. Still wasn't enough to get me over it.

This will make you feel better. You don't have to go back to Pensacola like I do and live in a goddam sespool of bama fans. For an entire year I have to hear about how good bama is from their stupid redneck, inbred goddam fans. This loss was as painful toe as loosing a family member, granted one I don't like very much but still a family member. It's horribly painful, thanks les miles.

Motherfrickin this. I'll still bitch at the first opportunity but the game last night retored my respect for this team after the BCSNC last year. I'm not boarding the band wagon but I won't be as short tempered with them.

Cesspool of "Bama" fans in Pensacola? Try Tuscaloosa. I am not looking forward to returning to work in the morning.

Tigers played great! Like Miles admitted in the post game presser, wish we had a few of those calls back.

I was at the Game in January. That hurt much worse than this.

Last night, our team played beyond anyone's expectations. All of the people who predicted that LSU had no chance were feeling their sphincters tighten up as the 2nd half ran down because they saw their plans going down the drain.

Last year was supposed to be an average year -- we had a perfect record, beating Alabama on their home field and made it to the championship game....where we looked overmatched, incompetent, poorly led, and apathetic. I was there. It was horrible, frustrating, sad, and just all around one of the worst days in sports I've ever experienced.

This year, even with the roster being depleted by players leaving early for the draft, injuries, personal issues and getting kicked off the team, we have a pretty good season going. We've lost to a good Florida team...could we have beaten them? Possibly. But everything wasnt clicking that game.

Last night, those young men had a fire in them that we haven't seen consistently this year. The coaching staff had them fired up and believing in themselves and their teammates. The "new" offensive line has gotten better and better each week. The offense scored touchdowns on the best defense in the country in 6 categories. The defense forced numerous 3&outs on an offense that has put embarrassing numbers up against other teams. Alabama had only trailed for 15 SECONDS the entire season. There are a lot of positives to find in last night's game....the final score was not one of them.

Like you, I was shocked, hurt, angry, frustrated and wanted to smash things. But, rather than blame people, and hold on to my anger, I'm choosing to look at the positives and enjoy the rest of the season. The LSU football team has a great future. And after what I saw last night, I'd say we have a pretty damn good present also.

Not one of them worked but they fired up the team, and fired up the crowd.


The fake on 4th and 12 completely deflated the crowd fwiw

I live in Alabama & wanted the win so bad!!! I was at the game & can barely speak today. My heart is gone for now. However, I am so proud of the LSU team & coaches. Although, the trick plays & 4th down try failed, I like seeing Les put confidence into this team. I think that it is what they were waiting for.

I will wear the colors proud here in Alabama, but the hurt will be there a while. Basically, LSU has had the same thing happen to them that Bama had in the regular season game last year. Bama stole the game. Unfortunately, LSU will not get a rematch. This makes me burn so much because Saban & Bama get their "cake & eat it too"!

And ESPN is right there pumping up Saban. You would think no one can play with Bama according to them. And the bozo, Pollack, who had a reputation while @ UGA as a jerk does a beat down job on LSU & Mett every chance he gets. Enough! No more GameDay, no more BCS countdown, just football games for me unless Pollack is an analyst, but I can mute it if I want to watch the game.

I have a problem with LSU sports and expectations. I must learn to accept that these are kids playing a game. A game . I get mad and upset and I boil in anger after a loss like this. I feel like I should be more mature at 44. I become outraged at coach Saban's winning NC 's while my Tigers play second fiddle.

I must learn to disengage from that kind of mentality and not become tangled in kids playing a game. I need to grow up and not care so much, then I won't be disappointed in Les Miles or be mad at CNS. I can't live this way any more.
