re: "It's hard to beat a team twice."

A few of the Alabama players and a dozen ESPN talking heads have said Alabama was better, LSU was lucky, I ran out of gas. I... I had a flat tire. I didn't have enough money for cab fare. My tux didn't come back from the cleaners. An old friend came in from out of town. Someone stole my car. There was an earthquake. A terrible flood. Locusts! IT WASN'T MY FAULT, I SWEAR TO GOD!

At the end of the day they know we beat them and we know it too. All of the spewed, pointless mind-garbage on the planet does not change the outcome from November 5th. And all of the sport psychologists on the planet can not keep Foster from puckering up a little when he walks in and sees those LSU jerseys across the field.

Their offense knows that, while Foster took the blame, they were unable to get him close enough for a reasonable chance at success.

Their defense knows they were gassed before the end of regulation.

And Les seems to own Saban.

Advantage- LSU
