Help me Rant - So WHY exactly are we supposed to win this game?

We aren't "supposed" to win this game. Hence why the odds makers don't have us as a favorite to win it.

Alabama is almost unanimously considered the best team in college football. All of the media personalities that cover the sport are picking them to win.

We aren't "supposed" to win. But as fans we choose reasons to believe and there is more than a puncher's chance that we do win.

If by chance we do lose, please just STFU and don't say "see I told you so" because you aren't exactly making any bold fearless predictions here. Everyone knows we're the underdog here. But that's why they play the games. Underdogs win sometimes. There are always unknown variables that show up in a college football game. No one predicted us to run UGA off the field but we did.

Let's just see what happens and stop being such pathetic bitches already conceding defeat before the game eh?

This is dumb, we whipped their arse.

He’s made toolbag posts like this one before multiple games this year.

Lester exposed his July quote about what the team would be above. Rouge was wrong but he is still looking for vindication when/if we do lose.

Now to the biggest issue of RED ZONE OFFENSE. It sucks. It just does.

---

You need to look at the SEC stat package. LSU is #1 in Red Zone Offense. Bama is about 10th because they missed like 5 FG's in the RZ. We are in the bottom when you look at TD vs FG. Bama has more RZ whiffs than we do. About half the time they score it is from a distance.

If you take Bama's Scoring Offense (#1) and Total Offense (#1) away then all you have left is neutral stats where LSU and Bama are either same or slightly positive or negative.

Bama's offense could be inflated due to the fact that they have not played a defense yet that is in the top half of the NCAA in yards given per play. We have played 4 including the top one, MSU. The #2 team in Scoring and Offense is Ole Miss who is hanging right in there with Bama so that dont say a whole lot about cherrypicking stats.

Opposing Defense Rankings

If LSU keeps the game close, it has the kicker to make the difference.

This. And there is no reason to think we will get blown out. Our defense is better than theirs (and it is BY FAR the best they will have faced all season). And our special teams is significantly better as well.

IDK how people can't see these objective facts.

You were a sniveling bitch before that game and it looks like you are still being a scared bitch before this one.

Think how badass he will look if we get our shite stomped though.
