re: Tua Tagovailoa doesn’t have to play against LSU-al.com

Some things never change - and Bama fans wonder why LSU fans have a chip on their shoulder about this "rivalry". Bama's gotten the benefit of the doubt in every regard the past 10 years - it's why we have the damn playoff system we have now. Anybody that's ever played at a competitive level knows that it's difficult to beat the same team twice in one year unless they are extremely more talented. Bama has never had to do that in recent history - they're the only one to get that "benefit of the doubt".....the only one.

And, before any fan from another team chirps up about this, I can count on one hand the number of SEC teams who've played truly meaningful games versus Bama where it determined whether they vs. Bama would move on to a National Championship level game and then played each other again.....actually, I cannot think of anyone.
