Not against Alabama.

Anyone know where I can find what the LINE was for past games?

Everything is blocked here at my place of employment, but I'm pretty sure Oregon was favored by 2.5 or 3 in the game in 2011 at Jerry World.

Yea, I think that's right. I also think Bama was a 1 or 2 point favorite in 2011.

Bama and Oregon in 2011 were both favorites.

Yes, we were favorites over no. 3 South Carolina. Think we have been dogs 19 times under miles and won 5 times. Dogs at Georgia this year, but covered.

That's kind of what I was looking for.

LSU seems to be favored, favorably....

...but when LSU are underdogs,
they sort of fall in place for the most part.

I guess I'm just trying to figure out why it 'seems'
that we have this attitude problem unless it's a game that LSU 'really' wants to play.
I could be seeing this the wrong way,
but I feel like you can see it on the field when the team just isn't 'On fire' to play.

Sort of lack luster.

No?

This is why I was wondering what the stat was aside from playing Bama.

Don't know about the last time LSU won as the underdog, but in 1988 we traveled from Baton Rouge to Tous, Ala with Ala friends to watch LSU play Ala. LSU had been stinkin it up all most of the season. Our friends were all cocky & talking smack. We(LSU fans)were all tricked out in purple & gold sitting in a sea of red Ala fans. LSU beat Ala on their home field 19-18! You could have heard a pin drop, expect of course for the Tiger fans cheering their butts off! That was a great game!! The LSU fans were chanting the Roll Tide Roll down the hole song!The only thing that would have made that win better, if Nick Saban would have been their coach.

WTF?

By the Alabama game LSU had lost a close one AT Ohio State, and lost at UF. LSU had already opened the season with a shutout of A&M, beaten Tennessee FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER in Knoxville, had beaten 3rd ranked Auburn 7-6 - and would clinch a share of the SEC championship the week after Alabama by beating State.

The only "stinkers" that season would come AFTER the Alabama game, 3-44 vs Miami and 10-23 vs Syracuse in the Hall of Fame Bowl.

I'd challenge you to find teams that win more than 25% of their games they "aren't supposed to win".
