I didn't miss it, I watched that in person. I've also been to games in 12 of the 14 SEC stadiums, and Vandy is the only one I'd rank as less hostile than the Superdome that night.

In fact, I was really concerned during pregame because the Bama fans sounded so much louder than the LSU fans.

On another note, how shitty is our fanbase that Bama fans don't even have time to respond to posts before LSU "fans" rush in to blow the opposing team?

You realize Miles is capable of out coaching even Nick Saban. Right?

However, like someone here posted Miles can be considered a wildcard at times. For what it's worth I think there is no way LSU gets blown out in a game like this. But it should be a very good, defensive game.

I'll be in Tiger Stadium looking to walk out of there with no voice when it's all said and done.

I felt from the beginning the only thing that could stop our offense was our play calling ( or lack there of), and so far they've really tied mets hands. No throws across the middle, no tight end drags or seams, literally only safe stuff to the numbers. Unless we can complete quick short passes I think they'll box up our running game.

I've seen our offense struggle but be oh so close. OBJ doesn't fumble the long pass at UF, do we win? Maybe. Couple of catches at AU and TAMU and those games are completely different.

Remember last year McCarron wasn't all that great until the NCG. Wow! Kudos to the kid who played lights out in that game. IMHO he was the key to their victory that night.

So, if this is the game where it clicks for Mett and the receivers we will roll big time. If our offense gets a shade better we win the game.

Up to this point we've played better competition and I'm glad for that. We've been punched in the mouth and come up swinging. Bama hasn't yet.

I do not expect the Tigers to roll over because Bama is Bama. They will give them all they came for and then some.

1) LSU has been known to play OUT of there mind in night games when they are supposed to lose. See USC 1979 and Florida 1997 for 2 quick examples.

2) LSU has NFL future first rounders everywhere on defense.

3) LSU has had a week to rest up and game plan.

4) Miles is notorious for winning when he is an underdog (see Okie State vs Oklahoma record)

5) Revenge game
