This is the mentality that the O pumpers have built for the fan base. It’s pathetic and embarrassing

Alabama game means very little.
It's a fair bet that in any given year, we potentially gain, or lose a couple of recruits based on our performance in this game.
It's not like we're playing some school that isn't in our own recruiting back yard

Typical loser mentality when it comes to bama game

Not really.
Playoff > Reg season
(All assuming we make the playoffs).

Well, firstly, Bama is a West opponent. That game means a lot. With all that said, the Bama game is not a deal breaker. We need to stop treating it like a live or die case. We are more than capable of beating the other 11 teams on our schedule. This post Bama collapse that we see all too often needs to fricking stop.

How could someone say this?
It's a division game. It's at least as important as 5 other games on your schedule.

More importantly it gives us some margin for error
If we unexpectedly win that game we could afford a loss to someone like UF or UT and still make the playoff as a 1 loss SEC champ

Every game that Alabama has demolished us, we have used a very "low mobility" game plan. Last year and the NC game are examples of it.
This allows Bama to rush all the big boys and to substitute at will. Screens, slants and play action plays are needed to force them to defend the entire field.

Don’t be ridiculous. Now that all conferences have a championship game, the committee will do whatever they can to avoid putting 2 SEC teams in the playoff. A loss to any other SEC opponent in a year where we beat Bama to get to Atlanta and win there is better than losing to Bama and not winning the conference. The only way we get to Atlanta without beating Bama is if Bama drops 2 SEC games. I think it’s been a decade since that happened.

11-1 East Champ Georgia w/ loss to Bama in SECG
11-1 LSU.
Even if they put 2 sec teams in I’m not sure they pick LSU over Georgia
People that are ok with losing to Bama are people that want the easy way out.
I hope this coach and this team knows that there is no easy way out. This is our path and we can't wish it to be different.

It means a hell of a lot. It's a conference/division game. And when the Tigers lose to them, while winning small moral victories, I start posting on the scoreboard and get the banhammer for 8 or 9 months.

I disagree. The Bama defense is too athletic and fast to rely soley on those kinds of plays to win. You have to be able to play them up front. I think this year, we have the horses to do that. I’m not saying we win, because Bama will be a solid team, but I expect a barn burner in Tuscaloosa.

It only means something if we beat em, so yeah I agree it means nothing don't understand why this is getting so many downvotes
Posted on 7/5/19 at 2:19 pm to tigbit
bullshite. You have to beat those guys to win the west. You have to beat them on the field if you want to beat them in recruiting too.

LSU fired a coach because of his lack of success against Alabama, even though he had more success against Alabama than anyone else. So, I would say the game means a hell of a lot to the LSU fanbase. That being said - I agree that a loss to Alabama does less harm to LSU's national championship chances than any other loss.

idiotic statement, move along now

Yea maybe so, but what if...
You're crazy if you think it isn't the biggest game of our regular season.

please tell me what you're smoking. We aren't going to win the SECWest if our only conference loss is to Bama and they are undefeated. AND...there is also no guaranteeing that if that is our only loss that we make the playoff. We don't get the same mulligans or passes that Bama does.
So yes, the Bama game means a lot. It means everything. Not only for winning the division, but for ending the streak, and putting out a statement that finally says, "we're back."
