Its really hard to find fans that can truly be objective. No P&G tinted glasses.
Our D is good, but not great. We barely squeaked out a win vs a horrendous Auburn team We struggled with LA Tech. It was a 3 point game in the 4th. We gave up 330 yards and 3 TDs in the air. We lost to Flordia when there was no way we shouldn't have.
I want us to win. I really do. I get sick to my stomach when we lose. People really need to look at the team we are facing and realize that they are good. Take off the Bama hate fueled glasses and just look at the team with no logo or affiliation.
Their QB is completing at 70%, with 25TDs and 0 interceptions. Their defense is solid. Yea you can say that their team hasn't played anyone. Outside of Georgia and Florida, We haven't either. Miami, unranked. Auburn unranked. Miss St. 22nd. Will probably finished unranked.
Against inferior opponents, Tua is lighting them up. The kid doesn't even play in 4th quarters. If he did, he would be the heisman lock. It wouldn't be close.
vs Ole Piss Burrow : 292 with 3 TDs. Tua : 192 yards 2 TDs at half time (didnt play in second half lol)
Againt SEL, burrow was 151 with 2 TDs. Against Ark St., Tua was 228 with 4 TDs, didnt play the 4th.
They have probably the best QB in college football. They have 2 phenomenal receivers in Jeudy and Ruggs. This isn't even mentioning Irv Smith and DeVonta Smith. We gave up 330 yards in the air vs Tech. Its going to be a tall order shutting down 2-3 guys.
Im just being as real as I can be. We have to have bama play horrible and we play our best or Tua get hurt. This is the only way we win. If bama brings their best, its over. We cannot win throwing 50% , with our receivers dropping balls. Our offense is horrible in comparison to theirs. We have to hold them to 20-24 points and I just dont see that happening.

I’m none of those. Matter of fact, I’m pretty notorious for staying on the fence the majority of the time on this board. Always wait and see.
But as much as I’m fired up about this game (I’m even driving 2 hours+ to the stadium with no ticket in hand hoping to find one) to go watch. I just think BAMAs roster is that much better. Then LSU wins out and finishes up with only 2 losses.
People are acting like we are getting disrespected with the spread and people picking against us. Bama is a legit team. I think we can win if the stars align. Its going to take Burrow tossing for 300 yards and 3-4 TDs. I just don't know if he has it in him. Im not sure if our receivers can quit dropping balls long enough for it to happen.
On Paper, Bama is better than us in almost every category imaginable. Yes, thats on paper, but the point still stands. We have fielded better teams than Bama and the midget has beat us every time. Now they have a waaaaaaaaaaaaaay better offense and a tad bit lesser defense. What has changed ?

their receivers always seem so wide open. If they can do that Saturday I will concede that they may be the best I’ve seen. They just haven’t played a defense like LSU has. We definitely have a chance
People are comparing this to the 2011 game in Bama. The difference is that this LSU team is not as good as that team and that this Bama team is better that that year, much. We have a chance, just not a good chance. Maybe 30%? If we can get turnovers and breaks, we have a chance but otherwise we lose by two scores are more.
Ill say this. frick Bama. I can take pics of my walls here in my office and post them lol.
That being said, Jeudy is one of the best receivers ive ever seen. Size, Speed, Agility, hands. Ruggs is legit too. We have gotten burned by horrible receivers. I believe in our boys to play hard and be in their pocket.
Its just a huge task to do it for 4 quarters straight and 2 of those without Devin White. We don't get any pressure against shite teams WITH WHITE. I dunno how we get it done without him.
Earlier in the year I had already conceded this game to them mentally but at this point I truly think we have a great shot at winning Saturday. If we do, I'm literally gonna float all the way to my truck.
