SABAN'S COMMENTS AFTER THE GAME....

Dixie Darlin · Nov 11, 2002

No one with any sense at all is going to believe that Saban really said that. Just another trick to lead to flaming in my opinion.
I say lets just look forward to watching what probably will be the best game yet!!!

TigerLifer3 · Nov 11, 2002

I don't believe that either.....

it is so obivious a hoax, started just to cause trouble with bama and LSU....that being said, I think every bama poster that comes chats with us BayouTider, Dixie, Crimson, and Stonewall are good posters who has insightful comments and actually wanna talk good clean football....With that being Said its Time for BamaFan03 to go, ALL of his posts have been Flames to LSU, and to be honest its getting old and boring

Where are the Admins? Hoaxes should be deleted immediately.

BRETT · Nov 11, 2002

BAMAFAN03 has flamed in the past but he did not create this hoax. He merely posted what he found on many other boards.

The reason it isn't being deleted is because it needs to be addressed. I've seen it on several other boards with no one refuting it. If I thought Bamafan03 had created it or was just flaming I would have deleted it immediately. The fact is that this is a fast spreading hoax that needs to be addressed and corrected. I hope coach Fran addresses his team about it and sets the record straight.

Guys, I know many of you are used to other boards that delete anything and everything but sometimes the best way to fight falsehoods and lies is to shine light on them. Fight lies with the truth.

salary cap

I heard Alabama is 2.3 million over the salary cap. Mabey that is what Saben was talking about. Of course Kentucky is about 1 million over so they can't say much either.

GO TIGERS!

It's not only on other boards, it's all over the internet. I've already seen it from 3 totally diferent sources. I've replied to all that it's a hoax and not to be believed but this will get out of hand...fast!

well

i didnt know that even by posting it i was flaming the board, i just didnt know thats why i asked why. i thought it was a pretty honest question. i did not post it in anyway to show that LSU was a bad school or anything, i simply asked why. so as i said before im sorry, i did not realize it was a hoax at first glance, and i thought the quickest way to find out would be to talk about it with people that are fans of LSU, instead of saying things behind your backs etc. a simple "that is a hoax, Saban didnt really say that" would have been sufficient, so im sorry to all of you that thought i was flaming. im sorry, and good luck on saturday

Trentster · Nov 11, 2002

BF03 - I did not take your post as a flame. In fact I appreciate you posting it. If not for your post this rumor would have gotten bigger than it already is and us Tiger fans would not have had the chance to try to dispell it. This rivalry is heated enough without some BS like that. Keep posting.

Geaux Tigers - Roll Tide Roll around the bowl and in the hole!

Transcript of Coach Saban speech to team after game

The Kid says:
{PLAYERS CHEERING, BREATHING, MIXED EMOTIONS, LOCKERS
SLAMMING}

Alright... everybody get in here, take a knee. No I mean it get in close, I
want everybody in close together, because I can barely talk. Jordy get the
hell out of here.

{PLAYERS GATHER IN}

Everybody quiet...QUIET. Some of you juniors and seniors, it's going on
three years and by now you guys know me well enough to know that
there's no way in hell I can really be happy about this game. And I'm sorry.
I know it's a big thing for everybody else -- and it's a great feeling, and it's
better to be on this end of it than the other end. But for those of you who
know me, you know that I can't be happy about this. Maybe inside of your
own heads you can, but I can't. There came a point in this game where in
the third quarter, both offensively and defensively when we should have put
this game away. I give all the credit in the world to the players in that other
locker room, but we should have dominated that team over there realtive to
the strengths on this football team and the strengths on that one.

And I'll tell you I'm angry about it. Unfortunately for us, they're going to be
replaying this game all week -- you're going to hear about this game all the
time. But instead of saturating your minds with this, I challenge each and
every one of you to do something different. Instead of the 24-hour rule
that we have, let's take this game, this game because what happened out
there was so unusual relative to reality, relative to what normally happens,
let's take this game and say "You know what, we're going to change our 24
hour rule into a 24-minute rule." Meaning that it'll be over as soon as we're
done here.

The reason I say that is because I can't think of any other way to re-direct
my anger about what went on in the second half of that football game
today. And when I think of the Alabama game, I see a tremendous
oppotunity for us to rectify what went on here today. Of course, Alabama
can't win the SEC Championship -- and we're the defending SEC
Champions. So this is their SEC Championship. They're over there saying
"Oh the NCAA stopped us from going to going to the championship, so we
we're going to show them that we're the best team in the conference by
beating LSU in Baton Rouge. Can you imagine the f**k*ng nerve. Can you
imagine the F**king nerve. Another words, we got caught cheating, so
we're going to go out and show the rest of the conference that we're really
the best team, even though we're cheaters. I'll tell you right now, I'mnot
letting that bulls**t happen to our SEC Championsip. Well, that's our SEC
Championship. That's our SECChampionship that we earned on the field.
That's our SEC Championship that the kids over there with thousands of
dollars in their pockets are trying to redeem their season with.
I guarantee to you that will be the best team we've faced all year. Probably
the only one that's so obviously broken the rules. I mean do we get to do
pas intereference all game? Dominick, you look like you've been through hell
today, brusises all over -- at the end of the game do I say, here's
$200,000? Have I ever given you $200,000? Believe me, I'd like to -- but
that's the rules. That's the rules.

{SILENCE}
{SABAN, HIS VOICE BEGINNING TO CRACK}
I'll tell you the answer - No. Hell No. F**K No. I am a competitor. I want win
with what I earned,what we as a team have earned -- not with what I some
f**king booster gave me. Everyone in this room wanted to come here --
and maybe some of you were offered money to go otherplaces. What F**
King nerve -- we don't want the team in Atanta to be the best team in
conference????? Are you kidding me??? If no one else says it I'll say it.
THAT IS BULLSH**T. Let me tell you something, the best will be in Atlanta
this year. Whether it's us or somebody else. After we get through with
Alabama, no one will doubt that the best team will be in Atlanta.

And you know what, I don't care if Tyler Watts and every kid on that team
is driving a Lexus...

IT JUST DOESN'T MATTER

I don't care if we have to physically make the referees look at the ******
Jumbotron on every F***king play

IT JUST DOESN'T MATTER

I don't care of if all of their players get a Chrsitmas bonus and a 401k
plan...

IT JUST DOESN'T MATTER

I don't care if Matt's out for this season...If Toe's got a broken arm...If
Damon leaves the team...If marcus is playing on half a leg...

IT JUST DOESN'T MATTER

If you're an American, if you like to compete, if you like football then those
sh*tholes with numbers on their helmets coming into Tiger Stadium --
talking with all of their bulls**T about the best team in the conference
should make you very, very ANGRY. This is a stake in the coffin game. Get
close everybody. I know there have been a lot of distractions -- I don't give
a sh*t abbout anything else that's going on. From a coaching standpoint,
Coach Fischer and Coach Muschamp and all of us are going to put you in a
position to win that game -- and I don't mean like last year when we kind of
dominated the game, but only won by two touchdowns. I mean a total F**
ing game from everyone on team.

Is there anybody in this room who thinks we've put together a complete
game this year -- anybody? No. Well, from this moment on -- understand
it, feel it, know it that everything we do this week relative to preparation
right up and execution of every moment -- right up until the very last
second of that game will be focussed on total and complete domination.

LSU fans.... can i ask why?just thought maybe you guys would have some insight on why Saban is so pissed at Alabama?
