I was born and raised in Tuscloosa but, HOLD ON, my whole family's from Abbeville/Lafayette. Thanks to a 10 years older brother, I was raised an LSU fan. I've had a LSU sticker on my car since I was able to drive and every single Saturday, win or lose, I go downtown in my Jersey (including the NCCG last year). Since the NCCG, the "classy" (if you "know" you're classy, then you're pompous) Alabama fans have busted both of my side mirrors, slashed 2 tires, painted my car multiple times, signed my visor which was already signed by the '07 team, and unscrewed the bolts on one of my wheels... Firestone said, word for word, "someone tried to kill you." I'm saying all of this to tell you NOTHING has happened this week. No one is even talking about the game. If they do, its about whether theyre going to BR or NO. In class today, our professor asked if we thought that a 10pt margin was an insult to Alabama.. He wasn't joking.... I realize that in order for LSU to win this game, a lot of things need to go in their favor, but so far it's happening. Alabama is a great football team, there's no denying that. But the pressure/expectations that these fans put on the players and themselves is ridiculous. "AJ for Heisman. Dude hasn't thrown a SINGLE interception." So when AJ throws that interception to Minter, LSU wins. Mingo/Montgomery will make Yeldon feel like the 18 year old child he is. Beckham is due for a big return. Wing will pin them on the inch line the whole game.,.. This is going to be a hell of Saturday.

Interesting read. Thanks for representing well

Hope you're right about the over confidence.

I park close to an "Alabama" car in Baton Rouge almost every day at work and it never once crossed my mind to do anything to the car. Sorry that happened to you. Pretty shitty.

if he even had hiesman chances our defense will change that this week, the team who makes the least mistakes and has the best defensive game will win it.

Just be careful if LSU pulls out the upset. Watch your back, and watch your car.

I'm wearing my LSU jersey right now. Just got back from walking the dog. A gump was out in his gumpware and just glared at me.

Seriously though, I've taken a lot of shite and about 75% was good natured. Never had anybody vandalize anything that I own.

To say that the Bama Teabaggers are over confident would be an understatement. If by chance, and I think we can, we win this game, I will be flying my car flags everyday for a week, just to remind them...
