LSU's Will Blackwell: "This was worst officiated game of my career. Where were these guys (officials) from?"
A little whine to help cure your celebratory hangover, boys. And you're right, Will, these officials were so incredibly terrible they completely missed your cowardly cheapshot trying to break an opposing star's hand after you got owned for four quarters in the biggest game of your life.
Exit question for all to consider: With a player who cried this much about officiating after getting thoroughly whipped and who is obviously so fond of blatant cheapshots, how did Auburn ever miss on this kid?

not that it would really change anything
but there were two times i could have seen the officials throw personal foul penalties out there.
Any more and you are getting a cease and desist from chromasters balls inc. - Chromaster
The only thing I think the
refs blew was that our guys were hit out of bounds a few times with no call.
But for LSUplayers to actually complain to the media about the refs is typical for a team that is not under control. Even if refs were bad I can not see Saban letting any Bama player say this. You know you are going to play football again one day. Nothing they say bad about the refs can change the score but it could come back on them.
If Auburn was in New Mexico and we never played them I would still hate them and their dumb coach and their cheating players.

Winners win...
…and losers blame the refs. Oldest story in the book. Taken to an art form by Barners and Tennessee fans. They’ve never actually lost a game…there are the games they won, and the games the refs stole from them. Pitifully sad, if you ask me. If Blackwell watched the same game I did, he’d know that a) the refs missed a few calls going both ways, so it evens out in the wash and b) when you lose by a point, that’s one thing, but when you get your ass kicked by 21 points, whining about the refs makes you sound like a petulant little bitch with the credibility of a five year old.

Something that has stuck with me...
Was OTS’s commentary yesterday about the hangover for the team that loses this game. I realize that LSU is going to be fairly stacked next year, but the way they lost, the circus with Bobby Hebert afterwards (indicative of what the whole fanbase was probably feeling), this is gonna be one LONG offseason…
I was just rereading some of the pre-game quotes
Miles was asked about the NFL and he dodged the question, said he’d come out fighting in the game. Could be very long offseason.

Well we play them in BR next year

I can’t go with LSU as preseason #1 when they have no qb with experience. I understand we just won it all with a 1st year qb, and that is twice we have done that, but LSU has not developed qb’s like Bama.
If Auburn was in New Mexico and we never played them I would still hate them and their dumb coach and their cheating players.

McBetterBerger has experience
just not in SEC play. I think he’ll do OK. Their offense is designed a lot like ours in that it doesn’t require a stud quarterback (although I’m excited to see how AJ develops over the next two years).
They have a lot of talent returning. I think NEXT year is the year Les Miles will prove himself. Player attitude this off season, and the ability to control the discipline of the team (it has gotten worse and worse every season since he’s been at LSU) will have more of an impact on LSU next year than their roster.

An excellent point, GC.
I’m not castigating any fellow Bammers in particular, but to hear it from some of you, anyone unfamiliar with LSU’s horseshit antics under Miles’s watch would think that he runs a classy program. His 2011 team was rife with thuggery and Miles went out of his way to hand the reigns of the team over to a fuck-wit who was a plea-deal-away from being the felon he most certainly is. Mind you (any bayou goers out there), I’m not talking shit, but Matheiu’s closeline of Kirkpatrick in the regular season game and that fat ass’ hand step of Barron isn’t the best indication of a coaching staff in control.
Miles needs to instill some control in that program for 2012, unless he plans on Matheiu turning every one of their games around with a timely kick return for a TD…
…or is Miles even capable of this in light of the devolving discipline levels since his arrival?

I was at the game, so I didn’t see the broadcast. What did I miss?
God bless our Dark Lord.
Bobby basically asked Les very pointedly
why the hell Lee never got in the game. Said all the fans were wondering this. He came across very, very blunt.

I read some about all of that (but not Hebert’s comments) in the N.O. Times Picayune yesterday. Lee sounded pretty upset, and they said the LSU fans were booing, though I couldn’t hear that from where I was. Sounded like an ugly scene for Les, but then again they’ve had worse things happen to their team before all season.
God bless our Dark Lord.
"Circus" is definitely an overstatement.

Except he was a whiny little bitch about it.
He went full Craig James on him. For what it’s worth, he was right to keep “Pick Six” Lee out. In four games against Bama, he threw for 1 TD and 7 INTs. The only thing that would have been accomplished by putting him in is more points on the scoreboard for Bama. On second thought, they should have put him in.

Speaking of hangovers after gettting thumped in the Nat Champ game
See Texas. They have still not even remotely recovered from their loss in 09 and they even fired their entire coaching staff other than Mack.
One more example would be Florida after losing the SEC Champ game in 09. Talk about being processed or Sabanized or whatever you want to call it but those were 2 premier programs that completely lost their shit after getting dominated thoroughly in all aspects by a better coached, more physical, more disciplined and all in all hungrier team in Bama. I love it and I don’t see it ending with these two victims!
These past two National Championship teams are giving an entirely new meaning to the lyrics in Rammer Jammer, “We just beat the hell out of you!”

but Urban and UF knew they had a “rebuilding” year the next year. It was all or nothing with Tebow’s last year, and it turned out to be nothing.

Honey Badger is 75% hype and poor tackling.

By the way, I predict HB’s 2012 season will be a let down from this year. He will not make it back to NYC. Hope he enjoyed his 15 minutes of fame because he is not a good pass defender.
If Auburn was in New Mexico and we never played them I would still hate them and their dumb coach and their cheating players.
I've argued with LSU fans all year
that Claiborne and Reid are the players they need to be touting. Those two are the ones that play solid coverage football that allow HB to run around undisciplined trying to be the hero. If it weren’t for his cute meme nickname, and LSU fans need to lock on to some stupid catch phrase, the HB would be an average player getting an average amount of media coverage. I’m glad Bama lit him up and had him sitting on the sidelines looking dejected.

So yelling “TIGUH BAIT!” at opposing teams just means the opposing team is being used as bait to kill the Tigers and in theory both end up dead at the end of the day. You try to explain this to them and their response is a puzzled look for a few seconds and then “TTTTIIIIIIII GGGGUUUUHHHH BAIT!”

I barely MADE IT HOME safely. . . . . .!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My wife was about to go Dareus on the rental-car rep. We were on time to make our flight until we hit the “express return” line at Budget. Those Nawlin-peeps were freaking dragging their asses. Didn’t help that we decorated our rental in full-on ’Bama regalia. (we had a hugeass “A” sticker installed and removed on the side windows- but. . . . .you could still see the outlines on the return day. shit, that kinda held us back the most. try ’splainin THAT to sadsack-m-fers!!!!)
This is how it’s done, "What do you mean, ’What’s with that “A”?’ It stands for ‘winning’. It stands for ‘tradition’. It stands for ‘champions’. And it’s short for A-L-A-B-A-M-A." And then the meauxron says, “Don’t trip, you won’t be #1 in pre-season. Be cool, don’t let me help you miss your flight” (the dick said THAT, CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT? they some sore losers them LSU-fans). I said, "Right now Tiger, you WISH you were me. I’m a micro-climate of cool. Matches my “micro-fiber championship shirt”. You saw that, right? (pointing to with both fingers to my chest).
To his word, he checked the fuck outta my rental car and my wife and I almost missed our flight. Boy she tore into SOMEONE? at American Airlines- we almost couldn’t board.
I couldn’t believe the electricity inside that stadium. Much different than the Rose Bowl. I almost had 5 heart attacks through tears, laughter, and singin’ along with the Million Dollar badasses! Yea Alabama, good ol’ Shelley’s leg be hurtin’. And Trent, on his TD had some upgraded moves and a fucking 7th gear, yo! Drown ‘em, Tide. Freaking Tigers are some straight party cats.

we exploited his weaknesses well, but he was always in position.....
I don’t know if I would go that far. It is obvious that we were exploiting his main weakness, his height. All throws his way were high and to the outside where he had no way of getting it or stripping it. Credit AJ for placing the ball exactly in the right spot, he was well prepared and very sharp. As far as his tackling goes, he is always attempting to go after the ball and create turnovers and that kind of aggressiveness can make you miss tackles. One of the most impressive things about that games was the fact that we had zero turnovers (outside of a blocked field goal) and only one scare from a tipped pass.

And a lot of encouraging shoulder pads taps after plays and stuff. My favorite games are ones where we can outplay and outclass the opponent.

Was too lazy to find the actual and complete quote.
It’s close enough to convey the point.

And hopefully steal his coach
Although this week the LSU fans may be ok with that.

Defense. Bama's was crushing.
It’s what wins championships. 8.15 points per game allowed by Bama, three shutouts, two against SEC teams, and the first ever shutout in ANY BCS bowl game. I’ve looked back at the last few years on Yahoo. The best scoring defenses in the country since 2003: 2003, LSU, 10.8 ppg; 2004, Auburn, 11.2 ppg; 2005, Bama (ROLL MF TIDE!!!), 10.7 ppg; 2006, VA Tech, 9.3 ppg; 2007, Ohio State Fuckeyes, 10.7 ppg; 2008, USC, 7.8 ppg; 2009, Bama (ROLL MF TIDE ROLL!!!!), 11.0 ppg; 2010, TCU, 11.4 ppg. Of those, only one defense allowed fewer points than Bama this year. Including Bama’s squad this year, only one team had the best pass, rush, yards per game, and points per game in the nation. Only one team allowed fewer than 200 yards per game. Only one team was completely dominant to this degree. I’ve never seen a defense like this, especially considering the quality and ferocity of their opposition, and I would be pleasantly surprised to ever see it again. To say this is a special Alabama team is a gross understatement. Almost three ppg fewer than the 2009 championship squad. I would say this team didn’t live up to 2009; they surpassed it.
Oh, and before I finish this post, one last ROLL MOTHERFUCKING TIDE ROLL!!!! FUCK THE CORNDOGS!!! Also, I’m glad Mosley’s injury is not nearly as severe as it initially looked. A dislocated hip sucks bad, but compared to what could have happened, it’s nowhere near a worst case scenario.
I will put an asterisk next to an Alabama Crimson Tide "fake national title" the second one is given. That day has not and will never come. But to be fair, I'll give you 1941 if you give me 1945 and the Missing Ring of 1966.
