Between the Troy game and the Tenn game (you know which one for both).
I really don't understand the negativity towards Lolo. The lady clawed her way back from injuries to finish 4th in the world in her event.
Yet people complain because they don't agree with her personal views or are tired of hearing about her? Seriously? This isn't Tim Tebow. She's only been headlines briefly after Beijing and leading up to these Olympics.

I want to know how many people would know Dawn Harper or Kellie (whats her last name) at all if Lolo didn't run the same event.

Either way I was happy for all three girls. I'm just coming across as annoyed because it seems like the press created a controversy that doesn't exist without them.
I'd recommend not trying to sneak things into the stadium you aren't supposed to have, or trying to gain access to areas you aren't supposed to be (or don't have proper credentials to access).

Forget getting decent action shots at night games unless you want to fork 5k for a camera body or an equal (or greater) amount on body+lens.
Even with the right equipment the lighting gets a little bit checkerboard in tiger stadium at night (albeit worlds better then your avg. venue), so be prepared to change exposure on the fly as the motion moves in and out of light.

So if your interested in photography, I wouldn't bother trying to shoot at the games unless you can get credentialed. If you just want to take your own photos of the games take any of already mentioned advice that won't get you in trouble.
Yeah, alabama wouldn't have had a shot in a playoff system...

*dur*

Great logic homie!

Only way Bama doesn't get a shot is if LSU or OkSt fans picked the opponent.

Seriously? It's factually 1-1. We split the season. LSU played a tougher schedule and one extra game against a conference opponent.

I'll give Bama the performance last night, but how can you say that honestly, if the game was played 10 times, it wouldn't be 5-5.

I think LSU-Bama are #1 and #1a this year. Just MHO.



I'll give it a rest for a week till y'all have a chance to cool down and think rationally.
quote:

Oh, NOW you guys want to talk about what happened on the field since it turned out in your favor this time. Well, what happened on the field in your home stadium when you had 90/10 split? And you couldn't win in OT? You can't get fired up for the biggest game in BDS in awhile?

BTW, this IS the first time a team has won the CFBNC WITHOUT winning their division or conference.

Besides, one win and one loss is still 1-1, no matter what the score.


Y'all beat us fair and square the first time.

We silenced the non-bias critics with the second game.
quote:


We lost the second game. Nothing more, nothing less. And still had the better resume. frick the BCS and ABC.


So bitter...
Y'all should put that resume in the empty spot in your trophy case.
I'd understand if it were close... but come on, take it like a man.
quote:

Having to win an extra game to earn the right to play a team we already beat in their house isn't exactly rewarding.

What did Bama do to earn their right to play in the championship? The most impressive thing they did all season was lose to LSU in overtime. LSU earned the right to play someone else because we already had a result on the turf between us and Bama.

We barely won the first game, what made anyone think our team was going to be fired up to prove something they had already proved? Of course Bama wanted it more and they got it. Doesn't change the fact that they are 1-1 this season, we just lost the second game.



You can't get fired up for the NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP game?? LOL okay!!

Rationalize it however you want. :violin:

I'll repeat myself. I'm for a playoff, under the current system Bama needed a lot of help to get into the championship game. However, in that game we dismantled our opponent. Calling it 1-1 after a second close game is one thing--after what happened on the field, you sound ridiculous.
I don't see any problems!

Hope this was a fail at making fun of Miles' want.

LSU earned the right to play Bama after winning the SEC championship :lol:

Bama didn't even win the west :lol:

Lol.
Teams that don't win their division can't win championships!
Except in college football, highschool football, professional football, soccer, basketball, and womens lacross.
quote:

LSU earned the right to play an OSU this year by winning out the conference, instead we get stuck playing a conference foe again and get handled...

I'm all for a playoff. However, a playoff would not have changed the results of this game. And LSU earned the right to play the best team in the country for all the marbles... they did and lost, don't try to discredit it.
quote:

Honestly??? I know it's not going to happen, but I hope that shirt doesn't sell the first one and that whoever designed it has to pay for any profits lost. It's ridiculous and absured. I don't like it and will NOT buy it.

If I were a Tiger fan it would definitely piss me off because I'm a Bama fan and it still pisses me off that they would make a shirt like that.



I'm with ya.
The fans that made these shirts were the same ones who after the first game were crying we got cheated, saying saban got out coached, saying we were a better team even though we lost... etc.

But every team has fans like that, just gotta deal with it I guess.
Its the day after a tough emotional loss in the championship game. I'd give them a pass for a week before getting on them like this.

I'd be embarrassed if my teams fanbase didn't react this way after such a great year ended so badly.

LSU was better then they played last night--thats the tough pill to swallow.
quote:

I do feel like we have all the upside going in. We lose, we definitely deserve it. LSU loses and its going to suck because we get the trophy and you're 1-1 with the BCSNC. You can't split the crystal football. It will be in our trophy case.


Don't get cocky. These guys are SEC west champs, SEC champs, and playing for the BCS/AP. We are lucky to have the rematch given the current system... so lets wait to talk trash when we actually win something? No?
Gotta love these boards.

Most of my bama friends are excited, grateful, and nervous about the rematch. Take out grateful and those are the same sentiments I hear from my LSU friends.

Media will be media. Truth is the BCS sucks, but if Alabama vs. LSU #2 is as closely matched as the first time around I'm excited to watch it.

Plus, this is a different LSU team on offense completely... Hilliard, Blue and Jefferson have emerged over Lee, Randle, and Ware... looks more like the revamped broncos on offense.

Anyway. Here's to Saban taking a page from his successors book and learning to punt when you are out of your kickers range. :cheers:
AFCA is stupid.
How is a Heisman finalist at his position not a 1st team all american?

Dude is considered defensive POY by other polls. Ridiculous.
Arkansas is ranked 5 right now. With a W over LSU they don't move above bama or lsu?

That's possible I guess. But highly unlikely given the current rankings...
quote:

top ranked bcs team goes in a 3 way tie is the way I understand it.

Wrong,
The three way tie gets broken by top 2 in BCS standings, then those two go to the TWO WAY tie breakers. That would be head to head since the conference and overall records are the same.
If LSU loses to Arkansas, LSU and Bama would need to be ranked above Arkansas in the BCS for LSU to go to the SEC Championship.

And that won't happen.

So simple solution, lose to Arkansas.
Roll Tide.

Tyrann should be removed from the lineup this week for that thug arse shite he pulled at Bama.Can't believe Miles and most of you people are ok with this type of shite from our players.He could have easily cost us the game,but hardly anyone mentions it.




Give it a rest man...
The play was dirty reaching to slow a player from behind, but he didn't intend to hurt anyone or throw the man down. He just wanted to slow him if he could get away with it to give the return man more time.
He got caught and flagged, its over.

He's not in Heisman talk because he failed a drug test and hasn't had any heisman worthy play for 3 weeks.
