What a wonderful day it is. Take away any thoughts of the opponent. Three national title appearances in less than a decade. Twelve straight recruiting classes have played for a national title at LSU.

At one point in my life I was elated for LSU to play in the Independence Bowl.

I just really can't wrap my mind around this program, all that has been accomplished in such a relatively short time.

I'm almost moved to at the magnitude of what has happened to our school.

I just wish my dad was still here to see all of this.

Yeah our fan base has become really spoiled. Instead of taking in how great this season has been some fans have found everything to bitch about.

Who gives a frick who is playing qb?? We are winning.

Who gives a frick if we have to play bama again?? While these other teams were sweating it out, we could have been relaxing and enjoying it instead of bitching.

I grew up watching us always fighting to get to the top. But we never really could. I was too young to remember 1958.

We would get excited every year only to get beat by Alabama. Every year the same replay. It finally cost Cholly Mac his job.

Today, we are Bama. Teams get excited to play us, mark their calendars, where white or gold or whatever. We roll in and destroy their dreams. Coaches get fired.

This is the best LSU team of my lifetime.

I concur. It must suck for the people who can't enjoy it.

Easily your best post ever.

I'd like to add to your euphoria, the prospects for next years team, and then the years after that. We are about to explode.

I wish ALL of the Dads that raised us to be LSU TIGERS could share this moment.

I know how you feel. I have several relatives and friends who were avid Tiger fans who would have greatly enjoyed the Tiger’s recent good fortune but for their untimely passing. As much fun as the past decade has been it would have been immeasurably more so if they had been around to share it. Geaux Tigers!

It was for days like this when I was a student at LSU, that I stayed in that stadium...October 9, 1993....LSU 3 - Florida 58...I swore I would watch every miserable moment so that I never forgot how that time was, so that the success in the future would be that much sweeter. Well, how sweet it is!

This has been and I believe will continue to be a special run, which will continue for years to come with Miles at the helm.
