Bandwagon effect. In the nineties it was FSU. A certain number of kids will want to leave the state, and they'll gravitate to what's perceived as the hot program. We just have to beat them a couple of times and this will take care of itself. We got screwed on the BCS in 2011, and last year we were oh so close. They look vulnerable this year, and they'll be breaking in a new QB next year. Beat them two in a row and all the bandwagon fans will put the Bama gear back in the closet.

The hatchet job that those assclowns at espn pulled to get bama in the bcs game certainly isn't helping the LSU recruiting efforts. What's crazy is that LSU has had all the pressure on their shoulders the last two times we've played, even though we weren't favored to win because everyone at LSU is sick of hearing about bama's mythical dominance. Even with the deck stacked in their favor they've lost the last two years and lost 3 in 2010.

But to recruits, bama looks invincible at this point due to 3 out of last 4, and its going to be a real uphill battle to change that because of the momentum of their program. On top of that, they're fixing schedules, dictating recruiting rules, REC, whatever they have to do to win. Because if they start losing, a lot of the shady stuff that they're doing will be brought to light. The people in t-loosa are no better than the ones in auburn. They just have more money.

They're still the most crooked program in history but right now they're on top, and you can thank Luginbill, Herbstreit and May, among others, for helping to set them up to get to this point.

At least the bcs committee recognized the political bullshite those guys pulled and immediately met to establish a playoff so that no one can be gifted into the big game again. That took a lot of power away from guys who should be analyzing the games instead of choosing favorites.

But for now, bama gets all the love. LSU just needs to win and things will return to order. Plain and simple. Just win baby.
