1. You should let it go.
2. That team on the other side had as many if not more pros on their roster that year.
3. Bad thread is bad.

What is missing from this list is starting OL men for 2011. That is the exact reason we lost that game (Faulk, Hurst, Williford, Lonergan or Blackwell).

So you're counting players who were redshirted or that didn't even play in these numbers to try to shite on that season? frick you.
if you want to use that measure, I think Bama has something like 40+ players than were on that team who signed pro contracts.

Sometimes where you lack talent is more important than where you have it because of match ups. Nick Saban, and Alabama, were able to capitalize on the lack of talent at QB in a one game scenario.

I wouldn't necessarily add Morris Claiborne to that list..he sucks...

And that talent went through a regular season gauntlet the likes of which will most likely never happen again in CFB history. Not only did that talent go unbeaten and win the SEC, they blew out every opponent minus Bama, in a game they WON ON THE ROAD.
The problem with this feat was the fact that the talking heads did not approve of a team like LSU accomplishing this feat, thus the need for a "rematch".
I still stand by my statement from four years ago:
The best thing that could have happened to LSU that year would have been to lose to Bama 9-6, and go to the Sugar Bowl. There would have been no rematch for LSU (rightfully so). Bama would have faced Oklahoma State and won the BCS.
