Do you guys actually like our off week before Bama?

We needed it this year for injuries but damn I cant stand it.
This team is getting rolling and off weeks typically do more harm than good on average. Completely worth it if Weeks gets right. Hopefully our rhythm stays where its been.

I do but in the last 20 years we only have 5 wins vs them sooooooo......

I like ours. Just hate theirs. The one advantage we had gets erased. Didn’t Saban make it that way?

With us losing the Bama game next year I want OM on Halloween weekend like it should be.

The annual bye started in 2010, but we did play them 4 times after a bye before that, all wins, in 2000, 2003, 2004, and 2007.
The first three times after a bye vs. Saban (2007, 2010, 2011), we won. I think LSU thought they had found the secret to beating Saban. They played him 5 times, beat him three times after a bye, and lost twice without a bye. History tells us that was not the case.

Turns out Saban with two weeks of prep time isnt a beast you want to hunt.
Why a lot of us felt what was coming in 2011 .

The funny thing is that Bama started scheduling that bye week before LSU in 2007, when Saban got there. Miles, for whatever flaws he had, always put together very physical teams. I think Saban figured it'd be better to heal up a little before taking that on.

It seems to have always worked out for them.

Well I like it this year. Having a bye in the middle of the season gives your team the opportunity to heal up and we needed that big time with the Leavitt hammy and TDG. But I don't think it's made a difference in the record. Especially with Bama having a bye on the same week.

I don't. I would like to start treating Bama just like any other game.

Yeah, hopefuly it benefits LSU a lot this season.
