We're the underdogs. So what?

Here's the thing that makes life so interesting: The Theory of Evolution claims that "only the strong shall survive." Maybe so, maybe so. But the Theory of Competition says "just because they're the strong doesn't mean they can't get their asses kicked." That's right.
See, what every long-shot, come-from-behind underdog will tell you is this: The other guy may in fact be the favorite; the odds may be stacked against you. Fair enough ...
But what the odds don't know is this isn't a math test. This is a completely different kind of test. One where passion has a funny way of trumping logic. So before you step up to the starting line, before the whistle blows and the clock starts ticking, just remember: out here, the results don't always add up.
No matter what the stats may say and the experts may think and the commentators may have predicted, when the race is on, all bets are off. Don't be surprised if someone decides to flip the script and take a pass on yelling "uncle". And then suddenly, as the old saying goes, "We got ourselves a game."

If Iowa State can go into Norman, OK and knock off the Sooners with a 3rd string QB...we sure as shite can knock off Bama.

Bama hasn't been punched in the mouth. They haven't been on the mat. They haven't had to pick themselves back up and find the will to fight back.
Our boys have.
I seriously believe LSU is more battle-tested. And they will bring that experience into BD on Saturday and make Bama prove they are the best team.

We were favored by how much against Troy?

So what, the chances of us losing are higher than normal. However, it is why you play the game to determine what happens.

We were favored by a ton against Troy and they kicked our arses up and down the field. If they can beat us, we have a chance to beat bama the same way. Not likely in either case, but it can happen. Heck if Curly Halman can beat bama...

I like the way you think.
