don't look at the score....go watch the game with your eyes and look at the stats afterward...that should leave you with a different opinion.

I think 9th is perfectly fair. If we win the next three games, we should easily pass up Iowa. Notre Dame plays Stanford and Oklahoma St. plays Baylor, someone has to lose those. So that gets us to #6 even if Bama wins out. A couple more upsets and we could be top four.


2 SEC teams will not make the playoffs.

News Flash: 30-16/30-17 is in the same territory as butt-kicking.

Based on that logic, Ole Miss are world beaters since they allowed Bama two garbage TDs to make their score closer. Had LSU scored a garbage TD and made the score 30-23, would LSU get the same pass the media gave Bama? LOL. No.


That's what happens when a very good team plays a pretty good team and turns the ball over five times.

LOL. Yes

unlike most games where most of the media probably would have just seen the score and thought...that is respectable...most of them probably actually watched the game

It was a one score game we gave them a field goal and gift wrapped a touchdown with a turnover in our territory. The game was a lot closer than everyone thinks.

It was 13-10 at the half.

No, it really wasn't.

That's like people saying that Syracuse gave us a scare. If you watched either game, you knew the eventual outcome was never in doubt.

That Alabama FG right before half took the wind out or our sails. I know it's 100% hindsight, but if they didn't make that FG, that game would have been much closer.

Well, lets play along, then discount the BAMA TD after the intersection and the kickoff out of bounds which enabled them to get close enough to make a one in a decade school record 55 yard field goal. Despite its dominance Bama would have been a 10 point victor at home where they were favored by
7 1/2 points. Very few teams could have been within 25 points of BAMA on Saturday.

Maybe in Tiger Stadium the momentum surges differently. Remember inferior Tigers took them to the wire in 2012 and 2014.

It was one of the biggest games of the year and everyone was watching. They saw the domination, and the stats prove it.

Regardless of the final score - we were utterly dominated, and the world noticed.

Bama second touchdown of the game was a short field touchdown after the first interception of the season by Harris. And the bama place kicker hit a 55 yard field goal tight before halftime. How many of those do you honestly think he would make if he was given 5 attempts? LSU got beat, I can admit that, but some of you guys that nit-pick what LSU does yet give the opposing team a break on is amazing.
