If LSU wins this game its the biggest win in LSU history and maybe the biggest upset because Bama is just that dominant.

One of them thought we would be 7-1 either.

None of them thought OSU could lose

Not really surprising considering Bama's PR firm pays Finebaum a large sum of $

No one expected LSU to beat Florida in 1997.

No one expected Stanford to beat USC in 2003.

No one expected K State to beat Oklahoma in 2003.

No one expected Iowa State to beat Oklahoma State in 2011.

No one expected Purdue to beat Ohio State last week.

That's why we play the games.

I mean...do you really "expect" LSU to win? I don't. Smart money is on a relatively easy Bama victory. That's just objective reality.

Now, I HOPE LSU wins. But that doesn't matter at all.

We should stop acting like people are crazy merely for paying attention to objective reality.

I dont expect us to. I think we can and never go into a game accepting a loss beforehand but if you ask me my rational, nonfandom thoughts, i dont expect to win. Weve lost to them with better teams and against worse teams than they have this year. We have never faced them with an offense as potent as theirs is now. You can say the defense is weaker but that dl of theirs is still excellent. Honestly i just think they are better but one night... anything can happen.

Agreed. I'd say it's about 25% chance max LSU wins...but 25% chance stuff happens all the time!

Good. I don’t want a single fricking person outside of LSU fans to think we have a chance.

Once you understand the extent of the corruption that exists between the SEC/AL, it is difficult to predict LSU the winner in any year. Basically, any team they can't beat they will frick over with the refs, replay officials. Hell even Saban's good friend ME @ the NCAA could do dirt behind the scenes for "the good guys".

Swear just last week Finebaum said with conviction Ohio State is the only team that can challenge Bama... he's a joke.

Every few years, we hear that a certain team is “the best of all time”. This team “would beat half of the NFL teams”.

What we are hearing about Alabama is nothing new. They have not been tested.

Our secondary is legit. If we get a pass rush, I’m not sure anyone can beat us. Including them.
