like the gumps thinking they can beat a NFL team. its unbearable at times living up here.


I hear ya man. I work with many a gump and it's sickening. I just hope we win that game when it comes around. I know there's quite a few games before that time but I'd love to be able to show up for work that following Monday after an LSU win. Unlike January 10th....that hurt.

If we want to make it to the NCG we better, no if ands or butts about it. After Alabama Brazilian wax I am sure the players want that one more chance to prove the critics wrong.

There's a quote floating around that says:

CLM is the only thing standing between rationality and a gumpness not seen since the Ottoman Empire. This is a fact.

Probably started happening after they beat the crap out of LSU in BCS championship game then destroyed top 10 Michigan in season opener and previously top 10 Arkansas team last week. They have earned their reputation. Saban being their coach and his ability to keep his players focused game in and game out has something to do with it as well. Oh yea and there's that 2 out of last 3 BCS championships thing...... It's been going on for a while. Roll tide - until Nov. 3rd. Geaux Tigers!

Well, when a great evil rises to power a hero must come along to take it down. We are that hero.

GTFO. These words should NEVER come out of your mouth... or be typed for that matter. I want them to be undefeated when they lose to LSU too, but I will never utter such nonsense.

LSU has to take Auburn to the woodshed Saturday. If you look at what teams like WVU are doing, LSU needs to be able to match that. Until LSU plays Bama it is a beauty contest. No close games. No scores lest than 40.

We just came out of rotation with Florida, Georgia should've come back on if not for the addition of the new teams, and we play The fighting Dooley's 20 October...

Yes our schedule is easy this year...nobody I know is denying it. But the bottom line is that LSU and BAMA are easily the two best teams in college football for the last two years now.

Bama's schedule is a joke! Somehow they have avoided scheduling Florida, Georgia and Tennessee.


You do know that Bama plays Tennessee every year, right?

I'm not convinced LSU is in the top 2 just yet. and We keep losing important pieces to our team.


LSU has to keep improving at pass protection...and the defense needs to quit making mental mistakes.

Mett needs to show he can handle big crowds on the road.

the team is as talented as any...but it has to come together...

We seem to have the "adversity" thing going on again...TM7, Blue, Faulk, to name a few already.

this is just week 3 against cupcakes

Last year at this exact time, no one would be able to beat LSU.

Bama scheduled well and is reaping the benefits.

So ONE guy says it, and it's the "official ESPN line"? Really? Really? You have to be joking right? You do realize that there is more than one college football reporter on ESPN? One reporter's opinion doesn't make it the "official ESPN line".

But then again, I guess since ESPN HATES LSU, you guys need to spin it any way you can so that statement remains true.

Yeah

But it's pretty clear that Tenn is the weakest of those 3 teams
