[QUOTE=Franco;1027603]You guys are probably as frustrated with that as we were with a couple Stallings offenses. Just a little bit more help and we could have had a couple other teams in contention.Quote:

This little snippet from today on ESPN.com gave me goose bumps...
The Tigers and Crimson Tide have their fair share of skill players, but the real battle will be in the trenches. Inside the fog of clashing limbs and colliding muscle is where the game will be won, as it always has been with these two teams. Alabama-LSU isn't a matchup of featherweights. It's Ali-Frazier, Tyson-Holyfield. It's heavyweights going right at one another, and it's arguably the best collection of maulers college football has to offer, with as many as 10 future NFL linemen between the two schools.
I was at the game in Tuscaloosa last year, and there was no place on that field for the faint of heart. Particularly along the line of scrimmage. Two really good defensive football teams making it very tough on opposing offenses.
You can have your 70-63 games. Give me the kind of grown man football that we will see come 7 Saturday night. Win or lose, I can't wait.
Is LSU really 35-1 at night at home in BR (read the stat on Phil Steele)..and who was the lone loss to and when did it happen ?...its an awesome/impressive stat if it is true,cant think of many other sports where a team has that kind of dominance at a particular venue
36 and 1 home night games. My guess is the loss was either Bama or Florida.Quote:

LSU's record goes beyond that, I can't find it for some reason.
Also I think the only time in the last decade or so that LSU has lost @ night @ Home those Teams went on to win the SHIP! Flordia 08' and Bama 09'. I'll have to find the stats! lol
it's fun to look at at.
Copied from TigerDroppings;
47-1 since 02' loss to Bama. That's when the tradition seem to come alive.

i seen that they are like 30-1 in night games on the road.Thats more impressive to me than any other game time stat. I also seen a stat that showed how many of thier home night games were cupcake games. It was a rediculous amount that take up a large amount of that home night game record. It also showed that alot of there bigger games are during the day . Mainly because of the tv contracts and having to appease to that. None the less, over the last decade it doesn't matter who they play or where. The bengal tigers just dont lose many games. Ought to be a great game come sat night!!
This game reminds me of the 2010 Game
