2012 #1 Alabama vs. #5 LSU Highlights

[@Rhinosaurus1000]

Please pardon my extensive soapbox but I can imagine the pain. While I’ll admit to being anti-SEC in the past, LSU was always one of few likable teams and my heart always went out to y’all with those disappointing losses to Bama. I wanted OK State to win it all in 2011 and my observation has always stood that each system is rigged based on favoritism and profitability. Bama didn’t deserve a rematch and it wasn’t a raw deal for LSU that suggests they were incapable of beating Bama twice, but it was pointless for LSU to have to even be threatened with a “not impossible” upset loss in the SECCG while Bama gets to rest and prepare more. While it’s obviously not permissible, the fairest decision would’ve been to rematch them in the conference title (especially considering the majority seemed convinced LSU and Bama were the best teams in the country). This prevents another conference champion’s capability from being prejudged and dismissed. Bama benefitted from losing the regular season game more than LSU benefited from winning it. That’s not hard for anyone to understand. It’s not unfair that Bama got a rematch, it’s unfair how they were given grace. Personally, I would’ve rather gotten shutout to my rival 42-0 in a conference championship rematch than lose the National championship 21-0 in my home state to them. Then to come that close to getting revenge later that year with home field advantage again (and they’ve beaten my team at home more times than we’ve won in the series) would’ve caused psychological damage because those are among the most meaningful games in the series. 🤦🏽‍♂️😂 I’m just glad I don’t get so emotionally involved in sports anymore. Essentially, Bama’s rematch win didn’t prove anything that we didn’t know prior to the first outcome (that these teams are capable of beating each other). It didn’t prove that LSU’s road win was a fluke by any means. Anyway, glad to see you all get over that 8-game misery and find recent success with a favorable outlook currently.

Looking back we can easily see how the shutout in New Orleans shifted the psychological edge of this game and series. It’s a much taller order for LSU to avenge a shutout (in New Orleans) at Bryant-Denny West for redemption than it is for them to extend a 3 or 4 game win streak in Bryant-Denny West. Then again maybe I’m the only person who sees it that way.

[@thetruthandnothingbutthetr6484]

If the Burrows win was a “lit” the what the hell do you call what Mac Jones did to LSU?

[@SorrowFaded]

You're right. It was Iowa State, but you understood what I was saying. And in 2011 missing 5 field goals that are completely out of range is not luck. It's poor coaching. Furthermore, Stanford(9-0) lost to Oregon. Oklahoma state(10-0) lost to Iowa State. (Obviously lucky for bama.) And despite that, bama jumped to the nc above those two. Same thing in 2012, oregon lost then kansas did. Bama automatically gets the shot. LUCK. 14-0 is not luck, they did not go 14-0 they got lucky.

That's not luck that's good defense. I can use your logic and say had Alabama not fumbled the ball in the red zone it could have been 28 points for bama so even if lsu did score those 3 field goals it would have still been 28-26 for bama.

[@patrickmosley5043]

I'm more worried about LSU this year than Texas A&M, if Alabama loses to Texas A&M in week 3 than Bama will have 13 weeks to clim back up into the number 1 or number 2 spot, If Bama loses to LSU, I don't think Bama will have enough time, either way ROLL TIDE ROLL

"you don't win national championships by luck" maybe not, but sometimes you sure as hell get a shot at one by luck. No SEC Championship in 2011, still gets a shot.
