Does Tennessee, ULL, Louisville, A&M and Arkansas all have better offensive personnel?

I don’t totally believe the personnel argument.

Yes, Alabama has better personel than LSU but no way can all the teams listed above atleast score points and LSU can’t.

I’ve never been the one to blame OC but after two tries and we fail to score a single point, I don’t think we can just say it’s players.

Anybody making the argument that so-and-so team scored against Alabama, and LSU didn't is just flat out dumb.

You aren't even comparing apples to oranges. You are comparing apples to dog shite. Not a single one of those other teams were even in the game at half time. Alabama wasn't even playing their second string by the fourth quarter of those games. Stop with this stupid crap. Only complete idiots would make this argument.

Our offense was complete trash. We failed from the coaches all the way down to the players on the offensive side of the football. The argument that those other teams are somehow better than LSU because the scored against Bama, after they were down 60-0 at half time, is just ridiculous.

Was Bama running out its walk-ons in the 4th quarter of this game?

Those teams combined to score a total of 28 points (tenn 14, Arkansas 14) in the first half against bama. In all of those games the score was way lopsided. Tua out, backups playing in the 2nd halves.

as a reminder those scores were:

Tenn - 58-21, 42 -14 at the half
Lou - 51-14, 28-0 at the half
ULL - 56-14, 49-0 at the half
Aggie- 45-23, 31-13 at the half.

So you're supportive of the garbage performance we put on the field. People who are making that argument are not dumb. Go look at Bama's depth chart. Even in all those blowout wins, Quinnen Williams, Isaiah Buggs, Mack Wilson played a lot of snaps during their blowout wins into the 4th quarter at some points. College Football Analyst have said that Bama is not as deep along the defensive line as they usually are. It's all about scheme. Offenses with better schemes have scored on Bama and that's the point people are making. La Tech threw for 300+ yards on LSU because of scheme. Arkansas put up 31 points cause of scheme. Last year Arkansas was atrocious along the offensive line. Personnel for this year hasn't changed, but they run a better scheme to score points. That's what people are getting at. That's the argument

Half of Alabama’s starting defense turned their back on LSU, but they play against us with a chip on their shoulder like LSU did something to them. That’s the difference.

They hate Tennessee and Auburn too. Neither of those teams went two years without scoring a point.

LSU is better than all of these teams. Bama just matches up with LSU better than anybody else. LSU is the one team that can never have success on Bama offensively. It’s just the way it is. Saban will not allow his team to get beat by the same offensive philosophy that he uses

Yes...UL-L has better personnel than LSU. If only we could have had the offensive players that UL-L had, LSU would have maybe won the game.

Make you fell better?

Just don’t buy into this Ponamsky propaganda that’s it’s strictly a personnel issue caused by the previous staff.

That would have outscored Bama had we not gifted them time for an extra 7 at the end of the first half.

I believe that all the activity in the 2 weeks leading up to the game gave them extra incentive to shut the Tigers down in Tiger stadium.

The defense wanted a shutout and was not going to let up.

I'm not pointing out that you said something like that in your post, but it seems like something you were implying when you said "Anybody making the argument that so-and-so team scored against Alabama, and LSU didn't is just flat out dumb." Don't point away from the fact that this statement is dumb
