LSU throttles Miami. Beats Auburn in their own house. Pounds Ole Miss. loses by one score in the Swamp. Skulldrags Georgia. Dominates Mississippi State on defense.

And we don’t have a prayer against a team that has one top 25 win? What really good team has Bama dominated? I know this has been said before but the lack of respect against a team that is out for blood playing in our own house is infuriating.

Media driven narrative my friend.....anything they can do to get Bama to the promised land.

Saban, Tua, Bama, blah blah fricking blah! It’s all noise. Just being around this team.....they have this striking confidence about them. It’s contagious. It’s got me wanting to suit up! Our boys really believe that if they play like they know they can, this will be a blood bath

I admittedly don't pay attention to the talking heads or listen to sports radio, but who is saying we don't have a prayer? A toothless inbred caller on Finebaum's show doesn't count.

Like it or not they're going to get the benefit of the doubt even if they haven't played anyone really worth a shite. They've been a juggernaut for the last decade.

And let's not act like they're just beating these teams. They're beating the ever-living frick out of them. And they have something they haven't previously had - an explosive offense.

Every single game they have played has been out of reach by half time. Some even by the first quarter. Its no surprise that the media is picking them.

But I can promise you that LSU will be ready to come out and punch them in the mouth.

Figuratively of course. We are not allowed to get away with that kind of nonsense.

I get why people keep saying this but are you willfully blind? I don’t like using the “eyeball” test as a criteria for the playoffs or the BCS because it’s too subjective but for regular discussion it’s fine. A lot of the Bama players played in the NCG last year so it’s not like Tua and others have never played under pressure, they are throttling every one it’s not like they are struggling. They are absolutely loaded and their coach has skins on the wall.

Could we beat them, sure but it will take a massive effort

I understand why Bama is such a heavy favorite. Bama has won 4 of the last 7 National Championships. The 3 seasons they didn't they were right there. That creates strong mental associations with Bama and winning in everyone's minds. Very few programs if any have had a run of that level of dominance ever. Top that with the media always being in love with the hot name QBs and now Bama also has that. It’s the perfect storm for a team being anointed the best ever.

Their offense is so explosive that Tua may win the Heisman and never have played in the fourth quarter of a regular season game. It’s never happened.
Let that sink in...

We could beat Bama by 20 and talking heads will say Bama was the better team. It’s the eye test, don’t you know.

Lack of respect? Gimme a break. LSU would be the only team with a defeat in the playoffs if the season ended today. They would be facing Bama on a nuetral field.

Btw there is something to be said for laying in the weeds instead of beating your chest and issuing wolf tickets. You want to gain more respect? Beat Alabama which is the last hurdle to getting to the SEC championship game. Then beat Georgia again and go to the playoffs. There would likely be a field of once beaten LSU, undefeated Clemson, undefeated Notre Dame and I'm guessing once beaten Alabama. #1 CU vs #4 UA And #2 ND vs #3 LSU. I think this is Clemson's year right now.
