Alabama came loaded for bear. They were ready for a war from play one.

Tigers were reactive. That has been the case since Kelley arrived. Now the Baker style has infected the offense as well. The 4th down calls did not determine the outcome. I would rather die suddenly than tortuously by a thousand cuts. We have some horses...please let them loose!

Our players are laughing all the way to the bank; next year many will be gone; no loyalty, no pride, no real commitment. Why should they really care.

Yes, the Bama players actually cared and were fired up. Ours were cashing checks then going to Fred’s.

On their first drive LSU went 70 yards on 14 plays to match Alabama's opening drive.

On Alabama's next possession they went 3 and out, losing 7 yards on the drive.

LSU ran 27 plays in Alabama territory in the first half. Alabama ran 11. LSU did not punt in the first half and the only spot where a punt may have been considered was the 56 yard FG in Alabama territory.

LSU wasn't "reactive". They were aggressive on both sides of the ball. Particularly on offense where they moved the ball at will until the 4Q. The difference was all that play amounted in empty yards due to failing to convert 4th downs, missing a FG, and settling for FGs in Alabama territory.

Remove the team names and scoring stats from the box score, give it to a neutral fan and ask him to predict who won they game and they would have said LSU. The team played aggressive. They just have an uncanny knack for not being able to make the clutch play in a critical moment.

By making those 4th down calls, Lane has no faith in Baker

You and swampcat are exactly right. Money is all that matters and I’m sure they are comparing their paychecks. No school loyalty. Bama kicked their arse.
