rematch talk
At first I thought well maybe. But it seems that a lot of guys in the media do not want this. I am hearing Stanford's name mentioned a lot. Assuming that Stanford and LSU wins out, LSU goes to the NC but would Stanford's SOS be strong enough to get them there? Sorry, I've missed seeing any threads concerning SOS for the current top 10 teams.

Unbelievably ignorant comment IMO.
Only if you are in denial of reality. LSU won, ultimately that makes them the better team at the end of the day. You're delusional, though, if you think LSU outplayed Alabama. Alabama had plenty of easy chances to seal the game but failed. Therefore they are losers.

Oregon fans are still under this delusion. It's what happens when you are a blind homer.

Chances to win the game signifies they were in a position to win the game. They weren't. Missing 45+ yard field goals in the first half isn't missing an opportunity to win the game, it's a failure to understand personnel and a failure to play to a team's strengths. Having Maze throw the only ball past the line of scrimmage post McCarron's interception isn't being in a position to win the game, it's being scared from a coaching standpoint. They had the ball, what, once in the redzone the entire game? Yeah, they totally outplayed us. Did we watch the same game? I never said we outplayed them, but I certainly don't think they outplayed us. That's what you said, and it was ill-founded.

We wore them down at the end. We out-rushed them, we won the fourth quarter, and we won overtime.

When we are deeper into history, that game will be remembered as an LSU win. Bama can frick themselves.

The Reid interception. Right there, all they had to do was run the ball up the middle and, at most, kick a 30 yard field goal. Most likely, the way they were running on us on that drive, they would have scored a TD just keeping the ball on the ground. Saban got cute and screwed Bama with the Maze pass play call. Couple that with 4 other missed field goals that were within range and reality starts to set in...yes...Alabama blew it. They lost. We won. It's the truth. Let's get over it.

Absolutely. Never getting inside the 17 yard line = outplaying.

How many trips to the red zone did Bama have?
How many did LSU have?
The team that gets to the red zone more and scores more points generally outplays the other team.
Bama couldn't even get to the red zone when they were given the ball on the 25 yard line.
I understand the concept of the losing team outplaying the winner, but this isn't one of those. LSU was the more complete team because it was successful in all 3 phases of
the game in comparison to Bama.

The ball was on the 17 I believe, their only time in the redzone. That's about a 34 yarder. There was still a lot of time on the clock. Further, they actually did throw the ball and Reid actually did intercept it. So who outplayed us on that play?

Yeah because they had been so close to scoring a touchdown all game with all those redzone opportunities.

Missing 45+ field goals due to a lack of personnel isn't blowing it, it's poor coaching. There is a big difference. At the college level, those aren't gimme's so what the frick are you even talking about?

It's not the true no matter how many times you say it.

Who cares? No TDs were scored. It was a game of field goals and Alabama had more shots at making them than LSU did. How hard is that to understand? This is coming from an LSU fan. What does it matter if Bama played better than LSU to A POINT? It doesn't, because THEY DIDN'T WIN.

They won. I don't care how in this case. Let it go. Posted on 11/10/11 at 12:37 am to theunknownknight

Damn you're dumb. So they had more opportunities to kick field goals and that matters? But we had more opportunities to score touchdowns and that, somehow, doesn't matter?

I'm dumb? Really. That's all you have. Tell me genius, how many touchdowns did LSU score? How many field goal attempts did they even try in regulation? How many more did Bama have? Bama must have been doing SOMETHING right.

Dude, I sat through that empty stadium in the 90's. I think I know what a true fan is. That doesn't mean I can't see reality and move on with my life.

Attempts? Why you worried about field goal attempts but discount redzone opportunities?

Considering we had more redzone opportunities, I still think your reasoning is nothing short of retarded.
