Good point, texascajun... Also,AuNuma1, don't start that shit of "Tuberville let up on lsu at the end of the game last year." Every team has a fan that makes that remark I'm sorry that you're him for Auburn. No coach has EVER let up on a team, EVER. Sending in the second string isn't letting up, it's finding time for your future starters. Don't even start that shit man... And about Auburn kicking LSU's ass? I really laugh at that because I guess you weren't at the 2001 Auburn-LSU game? Yeah that's the one where we beat Auburn and won the SEC West. It's a back and forth battle between LSU and Auburn and any relatively smart person out there knows that. How old are you?13?14?
Declining a pass interferance call on a complete pass b/c the completion got you 10 yards and a first down and the PI gives you 15 is letting up. Kneeling on the ball inside the 5 to let the time run out is letting up. . . . Dallas LSU . . I'm pretty sure that was less than a 14 point margin back in '01 - not sure that's a butt whuppin'. 2002 and 1999, by a combined score of 72-14 is a butt whuppin'. Also . . 7-4 for the last 11 years is hardly back and forth . . . .okay, yes - I'm stat rigging . .go back an even 10 and its 6-4 . . not quite back and forth . but pretty close . . (AU, AU, LSU, LSU, AU, LSU, AU, AU, LSU, AU)
And let me give you some help. That wont matter one bit next year. This reminds me of Auburn's argument with Bama. They state that them losing to Bama in the overall catagory doesnt matter but are quick to put that they own UGA because in 100+ games they are ahead by 4 games.
In the series with Auburn, the final score has not meant as much as the story behind the game. Think about these: The game where we blew a big lead by continue trying to throw the ball; the earthquake game; the bring the magic back game; the barn burner game and the sec championship/tiger stomping/band beating kicker game. I have a feeling that we will be able to add this year's game to that list. Damn War Eagles!
" I'm pretty sure that was less than a 14 point margin back in '01 - not sure that's a butt whuppin'." Never said it was a butt-whoppin. Just pointing out that recently, you can't say that Auburn kills LSU. 2002-Auburn Win 2001-LSU win 2000-Auburn win 1999-Auburn win 1998-LSU Win 1997-Auburn Win 1996-LSU Win 1995-LSU Win That spells 4-4 my friend. And you can go back further if you want, but I don't even want to talk about how terrible the LSU team we fielded in the early 90's was. '95 is as far back as I think it should go. Maybe just '96. Maybe Auburn techncially let up with the pass interference call, but even that isn't fulling letting up. That is just getting the game to progress and end. Clearing the room for a touchdown and allowing us to score would be letting up...
Kneeling the ball inside the 5 and not running it in is in fact letting up. If Teletubbie wanted the score to be 37 -7, it could've been but he chose to be the nice guy...call it whatever YOU want to call it but everybody knows what it is. Every team has ignorant fans and I'm sorry you're in that category for lsu... Just look at the last 4 years. It took your (very talented) SEC Championship team to beat us and that's pretty much it. The other three years have been completely one-sided. I look for the AU/lsu games to be much more competitive here in the next several seasons. Nobody is bringing in the talent right now like Saban and Tuberville. It looks to me like the SEC will belong to the West for as long as Saban and Tuberville hang around...
