I'm sure Mullins would much rather get another shot at the tiggers, a team they should have beaten, than to have to face another BAMA team. Just be glad that lsu escaped with that lucky two-point win over the Bulldogs and enjoy your favorite team's last few days in the Top 10.

Well, let's see:
LSU should have beaten alabama twice in 2011, in 2012, and in 2014.  The only clear reg season loss to the bumpkins was in 2013.  Since the 2015 LSU team is better than the 2015 bumpkin team, I don't see them leaving the Top 10 any time soon.  bama, OTOH, will drop way back where they belong after they lose to LSU.

Everybody wants a second chance after they lose.  bama will ask for a second chance after they run out of excuses for THEIR loss, too.   That's just the nature of the game.

I've never seen an lsu loss to BAMA that you thought the tiggers didn't deserve to win or weren't the better team in your opinion. I'm surprised you even give BAMA credit for the 2013 game, although at the time I recall that you made a bunch of crap up about interceptions that you claimed lsu made that they didn't, a bunch of bad call that you claimed only went against lsu and never BAMA, and about some key players being not at full speed for lsu and that if they had been lsu would have won. Oh well, I guess everybody hate lsu like that did ohio state last year before the buckeyes eeked into the last remaining playoff spot. Lmao!

No, everyone does not hate LSU.   Most people don't care about them one way or the other.  That's OK with me.  I am not like you, insisting that the world has to bow down to THE Tigers.  I'm not like you, pretending that my team is so great, and unbeatable.  We already know THAT isn't true (about the bubbas).
What happened in 2013 is irrelevant, just like ALL the past years, actually.   This year is the only one that matters, and this year LSU will win the SEC-W and go on from there.
That's all that matters.

You're the one that brought up the 2013 game and you're the only one that talks about BAMA being so great that they're unbeatable.

Predicting a BAMA win over lsu is hardly the same thing as declaring that BAMA is unbeatable by anyone. BAMA is working on a five game winning streak over the tiggers and already owns a 49-25-5 all-time record them. It would be much more out of whack to pick an lsu win over a team that they only beat 32% of the time.

Wrong answer.
Each team has a 0 win record against the other for 2015.

alabama has the best D LSU will face this season, but nobody stops Fournette.   Nobody.  
LSU's offense (especially QB) is better than bama's, and LSU's D is certainly good enough to stop Henry.  Drake might as well stay in the locker room. He is no help at all

Do I guarantee an LSU win? I can't do that ... nobody can.

However:
1) LSU is #4 and undefeated.  bama is #7 with 1 loss and hanging in by their toenails, living on borrowed time.   Only their D has saved their bacon several times, and their D just won't be good enough this time.
2) LSU has 5 #1 votes in the AP poll, bama has 1.
3) LSU has 1 #1 in the coaches', bama - 0.
4) LSU is #3 in National Power Rankings, bama is #8.
5) bama gets 3 points for home field, and lord knows how many from home-cooking refs who are intimidated by $aban.  They know they could lose their jobs if they upset the little dictator.  bama will get ALL the questionable calls, and they will be allowed the dirty late hits and pass interferences they have taken on opponents all season.  Yes, I HAVE watched every alabama game I could.

Still, this is LSU's game.  bama will have to TAKE the victory away from the Tigers, if they can.

Nothing that I posted was wrong. The odds are that lsu will lose once again to BAMA, and not solely based on the series' history. Vegas has BAMA favored based on this season's teams and they'll have millions of dollars banking on it. 

Still, this is BAMA's game.  lsu will have to TAKE the victory away from the Tide, if they can.

Vegas makes millions by collecting from suckers who play their odds and lose their bets.  
Betting on LSU to lose this game is going to cost a lot of people a LOT of money.

Let's see what the Vegas boys had to say about last year's Sugar Bowl, shall we?

"Ohio State and Alabama kick off at 8:30pm ET on New Years Day at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome. The Crimson Tide are 4-0 straight up and against the spread in their last four games against Big Ten opponents. The Crimson Tide hope that their success against Big Ten teams continues in the Sugar Bowl on January 1 facing the Ohio State Buckeyes.

Alabama is a 9.5-point favorite in the Sugar Bowl at sportsbooks monitored by OddsShark.com. It is a large number to cover in a postseason game, but Alabama should be able to do it and earn a win and cover with its strength on both sides of the ball.

OddsShark Computer Prediction: Ohio State 24, Alabama 33.6

Many were surprised by the hiring of Lane Kiffin as offensive coordinator at Alabama, but the move paid off for Nick Saban as the Crimson Tide churned out 37.1 points per game with an improved passing game. The offense averaged 48.3 points per game over Alabama's last three games to finish the season 2-0 ATS after the team went 2-8-1 ATS over its first 11 games. A more explosive offense hasn't taken away from a defense that ranked fourth in the nation in scoring allowed with 16.6 points per games against.

The Buckeyes suffered no drop off at all in Cardale Jones' first start at quarterback, a resounding 59-0 win in which Jones threw for three touchdowns and no interceptions. With that win, Ohio State earned its spot in the College Football Playoff and improved to 12-1 SU and 8-5 ATS on the season. Ohio State is 12-2 ATS in its last 14 games as a betting underdog but just 1-5 SU and ATS in its last six games against SEC opponents.

The OVER is 11-1 in Ohio State's last 12 games. The Sugar Bowl total is set at 58.5 points at the sportsbooks.

Jones did a fantastic job filling in for the injured J.T. Barrett in the Big Ten Championship Game, but can he put together a repeat performance against an elite defense that has had a month to prepare for him? Alabama is just too strong on both sides of the ball to go against as a 9.5-point favorite in the Sugar Bowl."

Oh, my goodness!    WHAT HAPPENED?
Vegas was WRONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
LMMFAO


You see, college kids don't give a f-word what gamblers who don't bleed, sweat and hurt think about them.

Hahahahahahahaha!   The video was removed, but I can imagine.   It still doesn't beat The Heidi Game.

Yeah Vegas plays the odds, but let's be realistic.
       bama is a good team --- a really good team (except for the QB).  I know this, you know this, everybody knows this.    The LSU players and coaches know this.   They also know that if they beat alabama in BDS, people will no longer say "LSU is good, BUT....".  That "but" will be gone.
LSU is a very good team too, and a dangerous one.   The bama players and coaches know this.   They aren't going to sit around for 2 weeks and pretend they have the game won.   LSU is not going to sit around, either.

This is the 2nd year in a row that both teams are coming off byes when they meet (I don't wanna look farther back than that).   Granted, this is a new season, but last year the game went to OT.  Lately, every game between these 2 except for that stinker of an NC game has been close.  bama has gotten the breaks, the football gods on their side, or maybe happened to be a little bit better.  Whatever -------  that's all behind now.

As usual, both of these teams have a lot riding on this game.
It ain't Vegas, but LSU is betting bama can't stop Fournette.   bama is betting they can.   The trump card however, is LSU's Ace in the hole.  
LSU has Brandon Harris -- the better QB.  bama is no threat on the option, LSU is.   Harris can pitch it to the RB (Guice is great on the option), keep it himself, or keep it and pull up short a la Tebow and toss it to a WR whose defender has been suckered by the run.  bama's D is good, but they aren't THAT good. 
LSU has the better FG kicker too, and he also knows how to run with the ball if needed.   LSU has the better punter.
The Tigers' only weaknesses are kick coverage and a few pass coverage breakdowns, but I have a feeling Les Miles is addressing that pretty intently.

If LSU doesn't beat themselves with dumb penalties or busted coverage, they have a better than 50% chance to win.   Vegas can't figure in heart, determination and desire.

Vegas may not figure in heart but if they did then BAMA would likely get the nod there as well. The Tide players have smelled the nasty stench from a loss that they themselves caused by not being focused. They didn't go through tough two-a-days in the heat to not play for a championship this season and now they know that there's absolutely no wiggle room left. They know that they must play their best in every single game left on the schedule to get in. Based on what you've said that's not exactly the same mentality at lsu. You said "they can afford a loss". Big difference in heart there if you ask me.

Really?    I watched Nick $aban dissect the game with Tennessee today on the ESPN Network.
Tennessee missed THREE FG's.   Take away 9 points from them.    LSU does not miss FG's.
Tennessee tackled like shit.   LSU does not tackle like shit.  
alabama did not cause those missed FG's, nor did they cause poor tackling.   You are only trying to fool yourself.  Tennessee GAVE that game to bama. If UT had a kicker, bama loses.   LSU HAS a kicker, if he is needed. 

Do you honestly believe the bammers are the only ones who work hard to reach their goals?   LSU knows they must play THEIR best too, and their best just happens to be BETTER than alabama's.   If you think LSU has no heart, yours is gonna get ripped out by the bama loss on Nov. 7.

Sorry ...........  that's just the way it is.   Your team is good, but not good enough.  I expect a hard fought game, and I expect a win. No "maybe they can."  LSU will win.
I'm sure bama will take their usual cheap dirty shots at Fournette early and often, but it won't work.

BAMA took a knee three times inside the five at the end of the game. 


Tennessee tackled like shit.   LSU does not tackle like shit.  

Yes lsu does tackle like shit, and they haven't even faced RB's anywhere near BAMA's caliber. 


alabama did not cause those missed FG's, nor did they cause poor tackling.   You are only trying to fool yourself.  Tennessee GAVE that game to bama. If UT had a kicker, bama loses.   LSU HAS a kicker, if he is needed. 

BAMA has a nine game winning streak against tenn. at some point even you have to quit using the "BAMA got lucky" card. You've worn it out. Even our resident tenn fan corrected you on this immediately after the game. 

Do you honestly believe the bammers are the only ones who work hard to reach their goals?   LSU knows they must play THEIR best too, and their best just happens to be BETTER than alabama's.   If you think LSU has no heart, yours is gonna get ripped out by the bama loss on Nov. 7.

Who cares how hard a team works if they rarely get good results against BAMA? 

Sorry ...........  that's just the way it is.  

Are you talking to yourself again?

Your team is good, but not good enough. 

You've overused that " BAMA just isn't good enough" card as well. It ceased to mean anything instantly after you were wrong in the 2011 National Championship Game so just imagine how lame it is after four straight losses and four straight years of you overusing it. 

I expect a hard fought game, and I expect a win. No "maybe they can."  LSU will win.
I'm sure bama will take their usual cheap dirty shots at Fournette early and often, but it won't work.

Calling on all of those lsu connections of yours again? Who can blame you since they've worked so well for you over the years?
