Also have to point this out because I heard Hunt talk about it today. Keelon is averaging 81 less yards per game(201YPG) passing on the road. Also his TD/INT ratio is 4/4 on the road compared to 11/1 at home. Small samples size but stark difference in road vs home numbers.



Stadium needs to get rowdy and stay loud throughout for this reason. We need to rattle Keelon.

This game at some point may turn on the refs and against Bama that rarely goes our way. So many pivotal calls we've gotten screwed on through the years that gave the game to them. That's why we don't often win the close ones against them...they get the big play they need late and the multiple holding/block in the back/offsides that should have been called get ignored.

If we can stay out of those situations we win. If they refs need to do their job for us to win we lose. Just seen it way too many times....

If you think I'm being overly dramatic, look up the punt return where we beyond clearly recovered our own fumble and the refs gave the ball to Bama deep in our territory...the jumbotron operator played the recovery over and over and over, the entire stadium screamed over and over and over until one of the refs looked up, saw it, huddled up for ten minutes and reversed the call. That's the kind of crap you have to overcome against them...

I quit watching after the Yeldon screen. Haven't watched the Bama game since...

I'm watching this year. We are winning this year. The stars align, Tigers win.

That was a byproduct of total ineptitude, not "cheating". The officials were so concerned with whether or not there was kick catch interference of the punt returner that they forgot to see who actually recovered the football. That was a bad Alabama team (3-5 at the time) with a HC that was on his way to being fired. There was no reason for the officials to "cheat" in favor of Alabama. If so, why in the hell were they not doing it in prior games that season to prevent Alabama from losing to the likes of Southern Miss and UCF?

The fact that you have to go back 26 years to support that you aren't being overly dramatic is telling in and of itself. That game (2000) was the first in what would be 7 LSU victories in 8 years. If there was "Bama bias", then why didn't the SEC refs do what they could to prevent that dismal streak.

LSU lack of success vs. Alabama over the last 20 years wasn't because of the officials. It was because Alabama was the better program with a much better coach. Were there some questionable calls in games? (int in 2009, personal foul in 2014) Absolutely. But this mindset that everyone is looking to screw LSU is pathetic

Dear God. This might be the biggest example of a fair weather fan I've ever seen. You refused to watch what was annually the biggest game of the season for 13 years because of one game? I'm not even sure you can pass yourself off as an LSU fan if that is the case.

I think Alabama is gonna have more problems than we are during this game. LSU by 10 points.

More confident than I reasonable should be I think. I just think we are playing them at the right time - we are playing well of late and they are not.

Agreed, I see Bama has 12 pics this season, 5 of which have been returned for touchdowns! Sam can't have a relapse back to his early season issues.

Nut up


How stupid is this. Having an opinion about the outcome of a game is somehow not "nutting up?"

You and the rest of us will be sitting on our lazy asses, not suiting up to play.

I’m not comfortable at all. Tigers will have to play flawless to get a win here, the interior offensive line concerns me. As usual, turnovers will be the difference. GEAUX Tigers
