Any idea when we'll know which side of the CWS bracket we'll be on. As in, would we in theory play Game 11 or Game 12?

This piece spells it out and it's dead-on accurate. LINK

It looks haphazard at times, but it can’t be entirely by accident. Miles is now 82-19 at LSU, one percentage point back of Urban Meyer for the second-best career winning percentage in SEC history. His team will go into November with one or fewer losses for the sixth time in eight seasons.


Yes, it's ugly, it's inconsistent, and it's frustrating to watch. But who can argue our success (i.e. that we *WIN*) and the fact that after EIGHT YEARS it's not luck...

Any arguments out there that aren't contained in this article?

Worst post evah.

(see user name, then find something else worth spending your time posting about)
Every day. This board- once a week.
Over and over... "ESPN hates LSU and has an Alabama agenda".

How about this article promoting a split NC if Bama wins? ESPN LINK

It's the only major news outlet with that story (CNNSI, CBS, College Football News, Sporting News, etc, etc, etc.) and it couldn't be more of a knock on the Gumps.

Read. Think. Chill.

I can't post the picture, but I got the funniest Christmas gift ever! An outfit for the national championship: an elephant thong getting a BJ from Saban (a picture of him yelling, stapled to it), with a new LSU gameday shirt on top. To make it better: from my in-laws (an Auburn family).

Top that! Ha.

Bama only played 3 teams ranked in the top 25


Repeat - they only beat three (3) teams TOTAL with a winning record. Forget comparing ranked teams and losses.

Has a team ever made it to the MNC having beaten only three teams above .500?
Bama's 11 wins included only THREE (3) teams with a winning record. (no, we don't count FCS Georgia Southern).

Case closed.

This past weekend has really pissed some of your corndogs off hasn't it?


Nope. All good here. Incredible weekend!

Just proving that Weeden, Wilson, Keenum, and others have put up more impressive REAL stats than easy punch ins.

Can't you guys refute a statistical statement without BS arguments? I grew up in Alabama and know most of you aren't good with numbers and such. But try.

3, 2, 1 ... another corndog joke, comment about a rematch, or subjective argument coming NOW!

Thank you, by the way.

Average is typically misleading though.

Median TD run length is 6 yards.

The stats back up the original point Gumps. Don't let this thread turn into the typical subjective argument. We're using stats to refute the impressiveness of the "20 TD school record" and "more than Ingram so he deserves the Heisman stuff".

Prove that I'm wrong when 50% of his TDs are less than 5 yards against inferior opponents (save LSU in which he didn't score at all).
Wow. 7 of 20 (35%) is exactly what I'm saying. And that doesn't count other short runs.

EDITED TO ADD: 10 of 20 (50%!!!) less than 5 yards. Wow again.

Most FBS backs could punch in 7 TDs from 2 yards behind a top class O-line.

Back out 7 "easy" TDs and 13 isn't Heisman worthy.

The point being- when you have a back you're trying to get to New York, you give him every 2 yard punch possible to pad the stats. Let's face it - Bama has dominated most opponents... Don't tell me they NEEDED Richardson on those punch ins. Lacy or a third string back could have done it.

A) Still not stats bro.
B) Not comparing him to LSU backs on long runs.

Look, I don't see Bama games in full... but I see every highlight on TV. Most highlights are punch it in, punch it in. Just like your Georgia Southern game last night, he has three TDs all from 4 yards out (including a wide open catch).

So, without subjectivity and emotion... prove someone who only sees highlights wrong with stats on his TD run length.
Talking TD runs. Bamers - don't react emotionally. 20 TDs is great. But with an incredible O-line like Bama has, every single one of our backs could punch it in for 1-2 yards.

And yes... he gains a lot of yards on long runs. But let's not name him a Heisman finalist just by saying he now has more TD runs than Ingram.

Seriously looking for stats on length of his TD runs.
Looked for stats but couldn't seem to find average yards per TD run.

Not insulting. And I realize he's good and has a ton of yards. Talking specifically about TD runs.

Why can't we kick off into the endzone?

I know kicks are from the 30 these days, but how can we find such an incredible punter... but almost never hit a touchback?

Anyone have our touchback stats vs. the rest of the FBS?

Thank gawd someone is talking about it. This notion of "which one loss team goes if LSU loses?" thing is beyond retarded. Answer: LSU is the one loss team that should go.
So is it safe to say, we're undefeated, #1, and on the brink of another BCSNCG because:

A) Our D is incredible
B) We win the turn-over battle
C) We have exceptional special teams
D) And our O is JUST good enough to score on their own PLUS capitalize on the b) turn-overs and c) special teams field position.

Essentially, our offense is average but scores points due to B) and C)?

Good summary?
