Just cannot help but feel the press just think the Tigers are here by luck & the Tide are the rightful team to play for the ring.
I understand trying to drum up drama but damn the bias for the Tide is almost sickening.
Even this report on the long layoff has quotes from Bama....just don't understand.

Don't worry about what the talking heads think. How well did they fair predicting the first game? Some pigs never learn.

It's Fox sports south. It's for Georgia, Alabama, Florida, etc. not Louisiana.

Look at it as a good thing. More bulletin board material for Miles to use to pump up the players.
Also it continues a good trend.

2003 season: LSU was the underdog and the "experts" picked LSU to lose the NC game in the Superdome = LSU National Champions.

2007 season: LSU was the underdog and the "experts" picked LSU to lose the NC game in the Superdome = LSU National Champions.

2011 season: LSU is the underdog and the "experts" are picking LSU to lose the NC game in the Superdome = ____________________.

Let the trend continue...

They article is from a site that covers Bama.

And to be fair, they've been off a full week longer than LSU.

My "intensity" is waning because I stopped coming to The Rant. I just can't take our fanbase bitching about one very select player's PT any longer.

Bama is lucky as well. Usually a champion makes his own luck, but in this case the cards fell our way to make it in the big game.

If there was a plus one playoff, who do you think would be playing for the BCSNC?

Heaven forbid a sports writer include quotes from a Bama perspective. The disrespect for LSU must be unbearable.

Did that article really upset you? I just don't get it. Please quote the specific parts that you don't like so I can understand.

where in that article does it say or imply that LSU is lucky to be playing?

and how many reports are out there rightfully praising what the Tigers have done this year? answer....plenty. people who focus on negatives are losers, children or both. frankly, this game means little to me because I know who we are....I know what we have accomplished....I know how we did it....and no matter the outcome of this rematch/exhibition I know that this LSU team will always be champions in my heart. get jiggy with that reality and you will understand the true meaning of strength.

So wait, journalists can't write articles about Alabama? They all have to be about LSU? Didn't realize this.
