I'm sorry. I'm a bit of a young LSU Tiger fan. Have only followed them since I started college in 1990. But I can't recall this EVER happening, much less against Alabama.

I live here and know these fans but this game might be different b/c this 2011 bama team has been the most overhyped team in the history of their program ahead of their 2010 team. They have more of a tendency to make excuses. if its auburn or Tenn its a complete meltdown.

Earlier in the show a caller from Baton Rouge called him out about saying Miles would not win at LSU. Finebaum admitted he was wrong about Miles and that he is a good coach.

If you listen to Finebaum you need to find a hobby. If LSU is better than Bama at QB then they are both doing fine.

This game should settle a lot. Jefferson and Lee have both had bad games against Bama but JJ was better last year.

If LSU wins Nov 5th, I might break my oath to avoid avoidable stupidity and tune in to f-bomb that week.

Driving home in traffic in Atlanta. My Sirius is on 91 from listening to Bill King in the morning. I can't help but listen to the train wreck.

I just looked at his website. It looks like they only archive appearances (like Herbstreit was on today).

Yeah he had some gump saying they were going to win 30 something to like 10. Paul said "have you seen LSU play at all this year? Nobody is winning by double digits."

The caller responded with "that's just what it's going to be pawl. I saw it in a dream."

I got out the car at that point.

While a few of the calls are from blathering idiots from bama, whether bama fans or auburn fans, its still very entertaining and they have some great and insightful discussions on there.

Finebaum went to Tennessee.

That's interesting.

I listen to him on the days I have to go pick up my daughter from school. I will definitely listen to him on Nov 7 after LSU beats alabama. But remember the game is in alabama and the refs do draw differnet out of bounds lines for LSU players, just saying.

My daughter asked me today why people were calling that man on the radio all upset, I told her because he said LSU has a good team and a chance to win. She told me well thats just stupid cause everyone knows LSU is #1. Shes only 6 yrs old
