Week 10 picks: LSU can silence doubters by beating Alabama
ESPN
GameDay Kickoff: Can Tigers earn their playoff stripes this week?
Really, I would think Bama would be the one that would need to silence the doubters!

They're the reigning SEC Champs and have beaten us 4 years in a row.
And they're favored

Why does this bother you so much?
You do realize that we went 8-5 last year and were not in the playoff consideration.
You do realize that Vegas has a fairly sizable line in favor of Bama
You do realize that until a few weeks ago, our passing game was very questionable and it's fair to ask whether we can have success on the road since we have only played two road games all season and we played Florida at home.
You do realize that Alabama's front 7 are all future NFL draft picks and could pose a challenge.
You do realize that nothing written today will matter once the game is over.
The media gives the benefit of the doubt to teams that regularly win. LSU has been second fiddle for several years now to Bama. I'm not saying you have to like it but you have to accept it and quit demanding respect. Our team has to go claim respect on Saturday night. And there is nothing you or I can do about it. It's up to the coaches and the players.

The second headline refers to LSU and Clemson

Stop reading headlines if it bothers you.

Jason Sehorn said we will lose because we are one dimensional.

You do realize that Hitler had an unstoppable army in 1940?
You do realize the the US had to draft regular citizens to go up against a professional army?
You do realize the US had almost no professially trained officers in 1941?
You do realize that Britain was isolated and had to take on the entire axis for 2 years by themselves?
You do realize that the US Navy had only a handful of ships and drafted merchant marines to man them?
You do realize that Japan had the largest professional full time navy in the world in 1940?
You do realize that the US industrial capacity had to be doubled using stay at home moms that had never even seen a drill press?
HOW DID THAT TURN OUT DUMBASS?
It is about THIS season, THIS team and not any historical bullshite and eye test personal bias.

Joey Galloway is the only one

Keys to having the media like us more in this game:
1) Beat Alabama
2) Don't send a kickoff out of bounds with about a minute to go
3) Beat Alabama
4) Don't allow your opponent a short field after a kick off where you took the lead...see #2
5) Keep your opponent away from the sidelines when you are up and they have no time outs with under a minute left.
6) and for the referees....find the head referees home address and advertise it....or
7) Beat Bama
Do #'s 1,3,&7 and you will shut up, the NY Post, ESPN, that worm, Finebaum as well as the other hairless wonder , Dennis Dodd, et al. Do 2, 4,5 & 6 and you will accomplish 1,3& 7. Simple.
