Disagree. Sumlin has zero spine. Looks at their suspensions the last two seasons. They are conveniently placed to miss the crappy opponents.

Completely disagree with your comment about CKS having zero spine. He's in a lose/lose situation when it comes to JM2. If he doesn't play him it becomes a media circus of why you aren't playing your Heisman winning QB and just imagine if they lose while JM2 is on the bench.

On a different note, I think TAMU has a bit of a chance in this game. Alabama's offense isn't clicking right just yet. I can see a 28-24 type game.

yes. no matter how much you hate the Aggies. If you value LSU's success there's no other argument except for the fans that think LSU should go undefeated every yr.

Too early in the season... let the chips fall.. I believe the toughest game for the Tigers will be Georgia.

As much as I hate Alabama and enjoy seeing them suffer, it seems to me that it is better for them to beat A&M this year. Why? Psychology of Nick Saban and the Alabama team.

A loss will motivate Nick to go all out the rest of the season. He will not want another loss all year, and has the hosses to make that so.

But a win will lull him, and reinforce the Tide's entitlement mentality. As in, "We're Bama! We deserve wins. All you others roll down at our feet and worship us." Which translates into Bama overconfidence and complacency, which, assuming LSU continues to play well and improve, could only benefit us. Because for us, this game means a lot. And if for them it is more "ho-hum" then...

Don't matter. They are both ranked ahead of LSU and still have to play both. Either way one of them will be ranked high come game time with LSU.

Let them beat bama. Lsu has a&m beat this year. I'm not even worried. Ga, fla, and bama are who we need to watch out for.

You are an idiot if you arent pulling for Bama to lose this weekend. They play NO ONE else besides us and the Aggies. The Aggies will lose at least 2 SEC games this year. They are not our problem. Bama needs to go down.

With A&M winning (and Alabama losing), it opens up a better chance for us to make it to Atlanta with 2 losses. There's a much higher chance A&M slips up against Ole Miss than Alabama does.

Or am I over thinking this thing? Due to LSU's schedule, if we lose to any of Alabama or A&M, a 3 way 2 loss tie is out of question. But if we go 0-fer against the east teams, this scenario puts us in Atlanta.



I'll always cheer for Bama to lose unless it directly helps LSU.

No way I can pull for Manziel. I hope Bama breaks both of his legs, his arms, and ruptures his spleen. Roll Tide!
