LSU goes into Bama week ranked in the top 20, LSU gets beaten by Bama.

I’m not saying it has to happen in 2019, but it’s happened seven times in a row. Why is everyone so optimistic about this year?

2012 #1 Alabama vs #5 LSU
2013 #1 Alabama vs #10 LSU
2014 #1 Alabama vs #15 LSU
2015 #2 LSU vs #4 Alabama
2016 #1 Alabama vs #15 LSU
2017 #2 Alabama vs #19 LSU
2018 #1 Alabama vs #3 LSU

It’s like everyone here has amnesia. Did any of you watch last year’s 29-0 debacle? We are less than one year removed from that monstrosity, but people here act like it didn’t happen.

Also, even if LSU loses to Alabama, the Tigers can still make the CFP at 11-1, so it won’t be the end of the world. There might be a path where LSU doesn’t have to play Bama in the CFP and can win a National Championship.

I still think this is a great LSU team, I just don’t think they beat Alabama based on what I’ve seen in the last seven regular season games.

You watched toss dives and I formations against the best front 7s in football in past years.

Now:
Their front 7 isn’t as good and we run spread concepts. Thats why people believe the outcome will be different

What an idiotic question...

Everyone here knows the record like the back of their hand . Also anyone that has a clue and watched football knows this year looks different.

Just lol

Different year and different team, during this 8game skid we should have won at least 3-4 of the games. For whatever reason bama gets into the coaches heads and makes them do dumb shite around here.

It seems you haven't watched a single LSU football game this year. You are dumb.

You got your attention. Word of caution though, your take comes across as very dumb. Lsu may lose this game, that's very possible, since they are an underdog. I think lsu wins though. However, win or lose, will have nothing to do with previous year results. This is a totally different team.

Between the threads here and over on SEC Rant, the idea that LSU has the dumbest fans may have some legs to it. This is all bad right here.

I saw Saints fans wearing bags over their heads for years.....until they didn’t

I remember when “Clemsoning” was a thing ....until it wasn’t


I remember when USC was a juggernaut...until they weren’t.


I’ll be charitable and assume you are myopic and not stupid. But, if you believe the past of LSU pertains to this version, you are one or the other.

I think Bama is much better than Auburn and Texas. And those two teams were an onside kick conversion away from tying or beating us. Which was very close to happening in both games. I just don't see us winning in Tuscaloosa. I think their defense and running game are better. Maybe something like 38-28 Bama.

I agree that we should look at previous years with caution, but to assume that just because you lost last year and the previous years, means you have little to no shot at winning this year basically insinuates that we will just never beat them again.

Simply a pessimistic view. While there are some on this board who choose to live life this way, I choose to believe in the promise of Joe Burrow and Joe Brady and Coach Eaux and Dave Aranda. This is a special team with destiny to fulfill and this is how you do it.

Just WIN!

1. We have THREE top 10 wins through 8 weeks
2. We have the number ONE offense in ALL of college football
3. We have the best QUARTERBACK in college football and the Heisman front runner.

Do I need to go any further?

That's what i hate if you are a true LSU fan you can see that our offense is totally different from last years. We are not a run focus team anymore and we finally have the type of offense that can put up points on Bama vs trying to win with our defense and the run game

We’re 1 year and 1 entire offense away from that.

Alabam’s defense is worse
Our offense is better and balanced.

We may lose but we also have our best chance at winning since 2011

What have you seen from Bama that says otherwise? Also Tua is probably out or not 100%.
