LSU was in a complete state if disarray last night. Due in part by a change of the BAMA game plan. However, LSU did not come ready to play. The players seemed lethargic, and the coaching, especially offensive, just plain sucked.

Agreed.

Was it Attitude/overconfidence/cockiness ?

Was it Coaching ?

Was it simply BAMA being too much last night ?

All of the above.

agreed, see you next year BAMA.

Best defensive performance I have ever seen by a team. Have to tip my hat to that. Bama also looked night and day better prepared than LSU. LSU you is extremely young and that might have something to do with it. Kind of like the Bama team that lost to UF in the SEC title game then won it all the next year when the were a little more seasoned. Hopefully our kids can respond the same way.

They were mentally fried as soon as this game was announced. Regardless of what they said, they could not accept the fact that they would have to beat Bama again after beating them at BDS. These are 18 yr old kids we are talking about. Frankly, I personally felt the same way. It was hard to get excited about it. I have used this analogy....think back to when you were a kid and you got a Playstation. It was awesome and you were so excited about it. Then a week later it broke. Lucky you though, your parents got you a new one. Would you really be excited about the replacement? If this game was played in 2 weeks, I honestly think LSU wins simply because the mental edge would switch.

I remember walking back to my car after the game and the strip had been taken over by LSU fans ...It was awful. I was just wishing Bama could get another shot...thank god for Iowa State.

Congrats on a great season...I feel your pain.

21-0 > 9-6
